Role
Who you are
- You are fully proficient in English. Written and spoken, we are from around the world, but we work in English
- You have a strong sense of ownership, care about what you build, and do the right thing that serves your customers
- You’re a builder at heart; you like the opportunity of having tons of exposure, making things work for a company long term, and having an entrepreneurial attitude toward anything that comes your way
- You are either eager to learn or comfortable scaling and operating large-scale microservices in high-growth environments
- You are proficient in a couple of languages; most of our current codebase is in node.js with Typescript and Go on the backend. We use ReactJS on the front end, but we are not married to any tools; we see them as a means to an end
- You like to keep your house tidy and clean, and you just can't leave code not covered with a test. Or a feature undelivered. Or dead code rotting in production
- You ship fast, continuously, and iteratively, learning each step
- You like to use data over opinions to make decisions. And are ok with finding the data yourself when it’s missing
- You are comfortable with change, either in priorities, goals and deadlines. You see this more as an opportunity than a hurdle. You are also satisfied with challenging the status quo and pushing for change
- You want to make a severe impact and are excited about working in a high-growth startup
What the job involves
- Learn about how painful it is for companies to handle tax manually, and think about how our products are changing the status quo
- Own what you build, with the ability to decide how to make it and the responsibility of operating it in the production environment
- Build meaningful products with REST APIs that our customers use and depend on for everyday business (finance, operation, tax and developer teams)
- Build new product features across the stack, from back-end business logic implementation to front-end customer-facing interfaces
- Write high quality robust, modular code for frontend and backend
- Ensure the technical feasibility of UI/UX designs as well as internal applications capabilities
- Record and collate lots and lots of data sets from all these operations for long-term storage and future insight
- Use every learning and observation to improve our products, constantly
- Understand customer needs and the pain they are experiencing related to tax automation
- Understand competitive products

Our take
It's never been simpler to set up a business online. Tools like Stripe, Intercom, and Twilio have enabled entrepreneurs to sell to millions of consumers and businesses across borders. But managing tax compliance remains a minefield that gets even more intense as companies grow and scale internationally.
Fonoa removes the challenge of managing indirect taxes from the everyday business of digital-native companies, with a suite of plug-and-play products that make up its global tax compliance platform. Since launching in 2018, the company has expanded its product suite heavily and secured big-name clients such as Booking.com, Spotify, Teachable, Uber and Zoom.
With strong funding under its belt, Fonoa has continued to develop towards becoming a fully international player offering services on a global scale. The company is focusing on a full tax stack approach for growth, prioritising technology to suit the digital business models of today. Through this, the company is well-poised to tackle an almost unending market that has catapulted other startups to Unicorn status.
