Discord has a highly engaged community of millions of daily active users who use the platform for many different reasons, but there's one thing that nearly everyone does: play video games. Discord plays a uniquely important role in the future of gaming, and we are focused on making it easier and more fun for people to hang out before, during, and after playing games.
As a senior manager, you'll lead global indirect tax strategy and advisory for new products, evolving business models and laws, and enterprise-wide initiatives. You'll be a trusted strategic advisor to teams across the business, making sure indirect tax requirements, risks, and opportunities are considered early and thoughtfully, not after launch. This role is about shaping decisions: translating complex sales and use tax, VAT, GST, digital services tax, and other indirect tax issues into clear, practical guidance, and owning the work from strategy through execution.
ROLE AND RESPONSIBILITIES
What You'll Be Doing
- Own all technical areas of global indirect tax and serve as the lead researcher on complex issues such as taxability, sourcing, and emerging business models. Own positions end to end: research the law, form a view, document it in well-reasoned memos, and stand behind it with leadership, auditors, and external advisors.
- Lead indirect tax strategy for new products, monetization models, and market entries (digital goods, virtual currency, marketplaces, advertising, subscriptions). Partner with Product, Legal, Finance, Accounting, and Engineering from early design through go-live.
- Monitor legislative and regulatory changes globally, assess the impact on the business, and turn them into actionable recommendations.
- Analyze the indirect tax implications of inter company transactions, new entity structures, and acquisitions. Partner with Direct Tax to recommend approaches that balance tax efficiency, risk, and operational feasibility.
- Partner with Tax Operations to make sure positions are documented and implemented correctly in our tax system and review global indirect tax compliance and returns.
- Lead audits and controversy, including defense strategy and supporting documentation.
- Identify and lead planning and risk-reduction opportunities, including registrations, deregistrations, and voluntary disclosures.
- Prepare clear, concise materials for senior leadership, including the CFO, that frame the issue, the options, the recommendation, and the risk.
- Manage external advisors on scope, quality, and cost, and know when to push back on their conclusions.
- Use and help build tax technology and AI tools to improve the quality and efficiency of indirect tax analysis, and build scalable processes, templates, and controls as the business grows.
BASIC QUALIFICATIONS
What you should have
- 10+ years of global indirect tax experience, with a mix of Big 4 or law firm and in-house experience at a technology or digital company.
- Deep technical knowledge of US sales and use tax and working knowledge of international VAT/GST, especially as they apply to digital products, SaaS, and platform business models.
- A track record of owning complex issues from start to finish without needing a roadmap, and delivering polished, accurate, well-supported work products.
- Exceptional written and verbal communication. You can explain a complicated tax issue to an engineer, a product manager, or a CFO in plain language and get to a decision.
- Sound judgment and comfort operating in gray areas, with the confidence to make a recommendation and the humility to revisit it as facts change.
- Experience working with tax engines (Vertex or similar) and translating technical positions into system logic.
- JD/LLM, CPA, or equivalent preferred.
LOCATION
Candidates must reside in or be willing to relocate to the San Francisco Bay Area (Alameda, Contra Costa, Marin, Napa, San Francisco, San Mateo, Santa Clara, Solano, and Sonoma counties). Relocation assistance may be available.
WHY DISCORD?

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding Green Card Sponsorship as an Indirect Tax Manager
Align your credentials to EB-2 requirements
An advanced degree in accounting, taxation, or law strengthens an EB-2 petition for Indirect Tax Manager roles. If you hold only a bachelor's degree, document five years of progressive indirect tax experience to meet the EB-2 equivalent-degree standard USCIS applies.
Verify your prevailing wage before accepting offers
DOL sets the prevailing wage for your SOC code and work location before PERM is filed. Run the OFLC Wage Search for indirect tax roles in your target metro so you can confirm an offer meets Level III or IV wage requirements before the recruitment process begins.
Target employers with active PERM filing histories
Use Migrate Mate to search for employers with verified green card sponsorship histories in tax and finance roles. Focusing on companies that have completed PERM for similar positions saves time and signals genuine sponsorship intent rather than speculative interest.
Understand the PERM recruitment test before interviewing
PERM requires your employer to run a DOL-mandated recruitment test, advertising the role and documenting that no qualified U.S. worker was available. Knowing this process helps you set realistic timelines with hiring managers and avoid employers who confuse PERM with other sponsorship types.
Review your O*NET occupation profile before the I-140
Indirect Tax Manager duties must map clearly to your designated SOC code when USCIS adjudicates the I-140. Reviewing the O*NET profile for your occupation and aligning your job description to those duty statements reduces the risk of a Request for Evidence on specialty occupation grounds.
Preserve your priority date if you change employers
Once your original employer's I-140 is approved, your priority date can carry over to a new employer's I-140. AC21 job portability also protects you if you switch to a same or similar occupation after your I-485 has been pending 180 days or more.
Green Card Indirect Tax Manager: Frequently Asked Questions
Which green card category fits an Indirect Tax Manager role?
Most Indirect Tax Manager positions qualify under EB-2 if the role requires an advanced degree in taxation, accounting, or law, or under EB-3 if it requires a bachelor's degree. Employers document the minimum requirements in the PERM labor certification, so your credentials must match what DOL certifies as the genuine job requirement.
How does green card sponsorship differ from H-1B for this role?
H-1B visa provides temporary work authorization renewed in increments, while PERM-based green card sponsorship leads to lawful permanent residence. The PERM process requires a DOL prevailing wage determination and a recruitment test before USCIS adjudicates the I-140 immigrant petition. There is no lottery, but per-country annual limits mean nationals from high-demand countries can face significant priority-date backlogs before the final I-485 or consular processing step.
How do I find employers willing to sponsor a green card for an Indirect Tax Manager?
Migrate Mate lists employers with verified green card sponsorship histories in tax and finance, so you can focus your search on companies that have completed PERM for comparable roles. Targeting employers with existing sponsorship track records in indirect tax reduces the risk of engaging organizations that lack the HR infrastructure to manage a multi-year PERM process.
What does the PERM labor certification process involve for this role?
Your employer files a PERM application with DOL after obtaining a prevailing wage determination and completing a mandatory recruitment test, which includes job postings and documentation that no qualified U.S. worker applied. DOL then certifies the application, allowing the employer to file the I-140 immigrant petition with USCIS. The entire PERM and I-140 stage typically precedes any adjustment of status or consular processing filing.
Can I change employers after my green card process starts?
You have two protections depending on your stage. Once your original employer's I-140 is approved, a new employer can file a fresh I-140 and you may retain your original priority date. Separately, AC21 portability lets you change to a same or similar occupation without jeopardizing an already-pending I-485, provided it has been pending for 180 days or more.
