Anrok is the leading tax automation platform enabling businesses to expand globally without compliance complexity.
As the digital economy has grown 6x over the last decade, software businesses have gone from not worrying about sales tax to needing to monitor exposure, calculate rates, and file returns across 20+ US states and many countries worldwide. This creates a critical bottleneck for companies that should be able to transact with customers everywhere.
Anrok eliminates this complexity by connecting with billing and payment systems to automate tax monitoring, calculations, and filing end-to-end. Our unified platform handles the ever-changing maze of tax laws at municipal, state, and federal levels—so companies can focus on growth, not compliance.
Our customers include:
40% of Forbes Top 50 AI companies
20% of Forbes Top 100 Cloud companies
Top companies like Notion, Anthropic, and Cursor
We're making compliant digital commerce a reality for companies big and small, backed by over $100M from leading investors including Spark Capital, Sequoia, Index, and Khosla Ventures.
As our Commercial Account Executive Manager, you'll build, coach, and scale our team of 7 AEs initially selling Anrok's tax compliance platform to high-growth startups and SMB customers. You'll drive team performance, refine our sales playbook, and contribute to pipeline generation—all while fostering a culture of excellence and continuous improvement in the sales process. You understand what it takes to hit aggressive targets while building sustainable, repeatable sales motions.
