Senior Solutions Manager, Tax & Audit AI FDE

About the role

Thomson Reuters is looking for a Senior Solutions Manager, Tax & Audit AI FDE, to lead product strategy, customer discovery and execution for Forward Deployed Engineering (FDE) engagements in the Tax, Audit & Accounting domain. The role owns the product direction and technical execution of complex engagements, working directly with customers, engineers, professional services, commercial segments, domain experts and core product teams, and aims to turn high-value tax, audit and accounting workflows into well-defined solutions and scalable capabilities.

Key responsibilities

• Partner with corporate tax departments, accounting firms, audit and assurance teams, finance functions and internal stakeholders to understand workflows, pain points, regulatory obligations, data dependencies and operational constraints, and turn ambiguous needs into clear product requirements, acceptance criteria and measurable outcomes.
• Lead product execution across multiple FDE engagements, setting priorities, structuring discovery and guiding delivery decisions while keeping customers, engineers, subject-matter experts and product teams aligned.
• Own and maintain engagement backlogs with strong hygiene, prioritization and transparency, and scope, sequence and track work across discovery, build, validation, launch and handoff.
• Manage product work from intake through development, deployment, adoption, release readiness and transition to core product teams or ongoing customer ownership, documenting decisions, context and learnings.
• Identify recurring tax research, preparation, review, advisory, audit, accounting, compliance, calculation, document and data-integration patterns that can become repeatable capabilities, and recommend when work stays customer-specific versus being generalized.
• Define validation criteria for professional workflows with engineering and subject-matter experts, covering technical accuracy, authoritative sourcing, calculation integrity, explainability, traceability, security, auditability and responsible AI.
• Turn customer needs and deployment insights into recommendations for roadmaps, reusable service offerings, integrations, enablement and investment priorities.

Required profile

• 7+ years of product management, solution architecture or related product-delivery experience, ideally in enterprise SaaS, AI-enabled products, workflow platforms, integrations or implementation-heavy environments.
• Demonstrated experience leading complex, customer-facing product and solution architecture work across multiple stakeholders and parallel initiatives.
• Proven ability to turn ambiguous customer problems into product strategy, requirements, technical prioritization and execution plans.
• Strong executive communication, facilitation, negotiation and decision-making skills.
• Experience partnering with engineering teams and influencing cross-functional stakeholders without direct authority.

Preferred qualifications

• Domain understanding of corporate tax departments, accounting firms, audit and assurance practices, finance functions or adjacent professional-service environments.
• Hands-on experience with generative AI, agentic workflows, APIs, enterprise integrations, data ingestion, spreadsheet/calculation workflows or document-intensive professional work.
• Familiarity with workflows such as tax research, return preparation and review, tax advisory, audit planning and testing, workpapers, financial reporting, technical accounting or compliance.
• Track record of turning bespoke customer implementations into reusable product capabilities or scalable delivery patterns.

What we offer

• Flexible hybrid work model and a flexible workplace policy including work from anywhere for up to 8 weeks per year.
• Career development through Grow My Way programming and skills-first growth.
• Benefits including health, dental, vision, disability and life insurance, a 401k plan with company match, flexible vacation, two company-wide Mental Health Days, Headspace access, retirement savings, tuition reimbursement, and an Employee Assistance Program.
• Two paid volunteer days off and involvement in ESG initiatives through the Social Impact Institute.
• Base pay of $100,100-$185,900 USD depending on eligible US location, with possible annual bonus.
