About the Role
This role owns the Charging product area with a strong tax focus, managing tax configuration, application, and financial reporting. You will define the product vision and roadmap, drive client self-service, and ensure accurate cost and tax data for financial reporting and ERP integration.
Responsibilities
- Own the Charging product vision and roadmap with tax as a first-class topic.
- Set the long-term direction, map dependencies, and design for different cases.
- Drive the shift to client self-service for product, charge, and tax configuration.
- Reduce manual intervention and lower cost to serve for clients.
- Own the tax calculation approach, including third-party coordination.
- Define requirements for accruals, future cost estimation, and cost-of-usage for accurate cost picture.
- Understand and own the coherent interaction of charging, issuance, cost calculation, ledger, and ERP.
- Define tax and charge reporting requirements for finance integration.
- Lead trade-off discussions across Billing, Payments, and Debt, communicating decisions clearly.
- Bring problems and requirements to engineering, engaging the right teams early without creating bottlenecks.
- Be the voice of the client for charging and tax to understand market requirements.
- Ensure new tax configurations and markets are supported through the core product, not custom builds.
Requirements
- Highly capable individual contributor who wants to be the domain owner for charging and tax.
- 5+ years in product management, ideally in financial, billing, or tax systems, owning a complex backend area end to end.
- Hands-on experience with taxation in a product or systems context: configuration, exemptions, cross-jurisdiction rules, and the difference between transaction-level and document-level tax.
- Confident driving tax decisions and talking to regulations and compliance teams.
- Systems thinking across charging, issuance, cost calculation, ledger, and ERP, reasoning about dependencies and edge cases.
- A track record of turning regulatory and finance requirements into product without being prescriptive about engineering implementation.
- Advanced AI fluency; use AI hands-on to explore problems, stress-test decisions, and move faster.
- Strong written communication, anchoring decisions in evidence and presenting options with tradeoffs.
- Fluency in English is required.
- Comfortable working across cultures, time zones, and with regional teams.
- Experience with third-party tax integrations.
- Utilities or energy domain experience.
- Exposure to ERP or GL integration.
- Multi-market or international rollout experience.
