Job Description:

The Tax AI Associate role supports adoption of AI and enabling technologies across 1,000+ tax professionals through a combination of enablement, requirements translation, co-building, and disciplined testing. This role sits at the intersection of tax technical work and AI/technology execution, partnering with tax subject matter experts (SMEs) and product/technology teams to translate real tax “jobs to be done” into usable tools, repeatable workflows, and scalable training.

You will contribute to end-to-end delivery across the lifecycle-discovery and requirements enablement and co-building user acceptance testing and iterative improvement-with a strong emphasis on practical outcomes, user experience, and responsible use within controlled enterprise tools.

Skills

Tax Domain fluency

• Working knowledge of tax concepts and the ability to engage tax SMEs in detailed discussions to understand workflows, pain points, risks, and decision points.

AI Enablement & Applied GenAI

• Proficiency using ChatGPT or equivalent enterprise-grade customizable chat solutions to support knowledge work, workflow acceleration, and responsible use. Ability to translate “prompting” into repeatable playbooks, templates, and workflows.

Requirements & User Story Development

• Ability to elicit requirements, document user stories, define acceptance criteria, and translate ambiguous needs into actionable delivery artifacts.

Training & Facilitation

• Skilled at leading training sessions, office hours, and enablement programs for varied audiences (new hires through senior practitioners), tailoring instruction to different skill levels.

Co-Building & Tool Configuration

• Capability to assist SMEs in building tools/workflows within structured environments (e.g., ChatGPT, Alteryx, proprietary tools), while following governance, risk, and quality standards.

Quality, Testing, and Feedback Systems

• Discipline in UAT planning, test-case development, feedback capture, defect documentation, and iterative improvement cycles.

Communication & Change Enablement

• Strong written and verbal communication; ability to produce user-facing guidance (job aids, instructions, FAQs), internal updates, and adoption materials that drive behavior change.

Responsibilities

Requirements Gathering & Product Translation

• Partner with tax SMEs to map technical tax workflows and identify high-value “jobs to be done” suitable for AI/technology augmentation.
• Produce high-quality user stories, requirements documentation, and acceptance criteria to support product enhancement and tool development.
• Maintain organized backlogs and documentation that enable efficient triage, prioritization, and delivery.

Enablement & Training Delivery

• Plan and lead enablement sessions for tax teams and new hires, including live trainings, recorded content, office hours, and targeted role-based upskilling.
• Create training materials and practical exercises that translate AI concepts into daily tax work outcomes.

Co-Building with Tax SMEs

• Assist tax practitioners in developing AI-enabled workflows and tools within controlled technology environments (e.g., enterprise ChatGPT solutions, Alteryx, proprietary platforms).
• Help convert one-off experimentation into standardized assets (templates, playbooks, reusable prompts, documented procedures).

Communications & Thought Leadership

• Create and publish internal communications, user guides, instructions, release notes, and change management documentation to drive adoption and consistency.
• Contribute to practice-facing thought leadership on applied AI in tax, responsible use, and emerging capabilities.

Testing, QA, and Continuous Improvement

• Conduct user acceptance testing sessions with tax teams; document outcomes, issues, and enhancement opportunities.
• Log defects and improvement stories with clear reproduction steps and prioritization context.
• Support QA testing and validate fixes/enhancements before broader release.

Stakeholders & Collaboration Model

This role partners across:

• Tax practitioners and SMEs (end users, workflow owners)
• Tax leadership / enablement leaders (adoption goals, prioritization, communications)
• Technology/product teams (tool roadmap, backlog execution, releases)
• Risk / compliance / security stakeholders (responsible use, governance, approved tooling)

Basic Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in Tax, Accounting (with tax focus), or equivalent tax-related discipline.
• Demonstrated tax-domain understanding sufficient to engage in technical workflow discussions and translate work into requirements.
• Proficiency with ChatGPT or equivalent enterprise-grade customizable AI chat tools, including ability to produce repeatable workflows and guidance (not just ad hoc usage).
• Strong interpersonal skills with the ability to build credibility with tax professionals and lead group enablement sessions.
• High organizational discipline: documentation, backlog tracking, follow-through, and clear status communication.

Preferred Qualifications

• Coding or automation skills (e.g., Python) applied to workflow enablement, document processing, or analytics.
• Familiarity with Microsoft Azure, including exposure to AI services.
• Experience with Azure AI Document Intelligence (or similar document extraction/classification tooling).
• Familiarity with Azure DevOps, agile delivery practices, and writing user stories / managing backlogs.
• Experience with tools such as Alteryx (or comparable workflow automation tools).
• We are open to hiring at the Associate or Senior Associate level. Scope, title, and compensation will be aligned to the selected candidate’s experience and qualifications.
• We appreciate talent from all over the United States and are willing to consider candidates who may not be located near a Crowe office location for this role/opening.
