About us | TaxJar

At TaxJar, we’re creating more powerful ways for businesses to manage sales tax by turning confusing and complicated into simple and delightful.

From tech people to tax people to people people, there’s one thing everyone at TaxJar has in common: We love a good challenge. It’s in our DNA.

It all started in 2013, when our founders began discussing the enormous challenge businesses face when managing sales tax. They knew there had to be a better way — and were sure that technology held the answer. So, taking their experience from years of running tech companies, they created TaxJar.

From day one, TaxJar has been a fully distributed company. That’s allowed us to pull in the very best talent from across the country, people with different backgrounds and lifestyles who share our drive, our curiosity, and our core values. Together, we’re raising the bar with award-winning technology and customer experience that make the insanely complex world of compliance surprisingly easy.

TaxJar was acquired by Stripe in June, 2021, with the vision of uniting commerce and compliance to grow the GDP of the internet.

We’ve built a team based on trust, one that endeavors to maximize our team members’ individual talents so our workplace creates a sense of meaning and belonging for everyone.

We embrace that diversity, equity, inclusion and belonging are essential sources of creativity and innovation that bring a richness of thinking and experience to the work that is celebrated at TaxJar. Simply put, we care. We will always put people — our team, our partners, and our customers — first, by supporting our people to do the best work of their career building products our customers love.

Our Values

We build relationships that matter

People matter. We work hard to build and maintain positive relationships that are based on trust, honesty, integrity, loyalty, and mutual respect. We create a space where we can truly be ourselves and do our best work, striving to get the best from each other because we all seek the best for each other. When we know that we all matter, it becomes easy to do the right thing for everyone.

We’re always learning and growing

Our desire to learn and grow is baked into who we are. We're restless, curious, unfinished, and open-minded, eager to make our own discoveries and follow our passions. We create a safe place to try and fail, as long as we learn, grow, and persevere through challenges. Our personal growth builds a collective wisdom that uplifts us all.

We shape our own destiny

We have always done things our way, with the freedom to choose how we work and who we work with as long as we deliver results. It's why we will fiercely protect our autonomy, empowering each individual to set their own path in a community of collective responsibility so that in the decisions we make, and the work that we do, each of us puts the best interests of all of us first, and always.

We know that we’re better together

Our differences have always been our strengths, and our unique positions and perspectives power a collective ingenuity that energizes our collaboration. We know that when we all do our part, we have the ambition and creativity to overcome any challenge we face.
