Enable Internet businesses to sell across borders
We're tackling a key challenge for all Internet businesses today: navigating the changing landscape of tax. In the last few years, software businesses have gone from not having to worry about sales tax, to needing to monitor their exposure, calculate local sales tax rates, and file returns in over 20+ US states and many countries worldwide.
So much of our economy today and tomorrow exists online. The internet economy has grown 6x over the last 10 years and software development productivity is only positioned to accelerate. Companies should be able to transact with customers everywhere. Anrok is building the tools behind the scenes that make compliant digital commerce a reality for companies big and small.
Anrok connects with billing and payment systems to automate sales tax compliance end-to-end. We have raised over $100M from leading investors like Sequoia, Index, and Khosla Ventures.
We're seeking an experienced leader to build and manage our Onboarding function as we scale our customer base and expand our enterprise offerings. As Manager of the Onboarding Department, you'll lead a team of onboarding managers responsible for guiding our most valuable customers through their implementation journey. You'll be instrumental in defining our onboarding strategy, optimizing processes, and ensuring exceptional customer experiences that drive long-term value.
This role reports to the Head of Activation and works closely with Sales, Solutions Engineering, Tax, and Customer Success teams to ensure seamless customer transitions from sale to successful platform adoption.
