Senior Tax Analyst — Corporate Tax, Global Compliance

Location: Hyderabad, India
Department: Corporate Tax — Global Compliance
Reports To: Tax Manager / Senior Tax Manager

About the Role

Salesforce is transforming its global tax organization from siloed, legacy functions into one integrated worldwide compliance ecosystem — "One Team, One Process." We're looking for a driven Senior Tax Analyst in our Hyderabad hub to help lead this shift.

This role centers on U.S. International Tax compliance (Forms 5471, 8858, GILTI, Subpart F, BEAT, FTC), but the scope is global by design. You'll partner with U.S. and international tax colleagues to run integrated tie-outs between Acquired Entity Trial Balances (AETB) and the Worldwide Trial Balance (WWTB), support post-acquisition integrations, build AI-driven workpaper automation, and help streamline the global tax return cycle.

What You'll Do

U.S. International Tax Compliance & Reporting

• Prepare complex worldwide compliance workpapers, including GILTI/NCTI, Subpart F, BEAT, M-1s/E&P, Section 163(j), Foreign Tax Credit (FTC), and FDII calculations.
• Own accurate, end-to-end completion of compliance forms (1120, 5471, 8858, 8990, 8991, 8992, 1120-F) using Corptax.
• Perform return-to-provision analysis, support CbCR reporting, and back up return positions with solid workpaper analysis.

Worldwide Compliance Transformation ("One Team, One Process")

• Participate in the unified AETB/WWTB tie-out process to cut prep cycle times and eliminate duplicate data collection across regions.
• Help build data-sourcing frameworks following the Workday ERP rollout, aligning general ledger structures (FDM) with tax compliance modules.
• Support standardization of global book-tax adjustments (DART/Fixed Assets, M&E, Share-Based Compensation, Intercompany Eliminations).

Acquisition Integration & M&A Support

• Help draft initial M&A tax disclosures, assess transaction tax compliance impacts, and prepare acquisition-related filings.
• Drive trial balance mapping and integration for newly acquired entities (AETB) into Salesforce's centralized tax engine.

Innovation & Process Automation (AI Adoption)

• Identify, design, and implement automated compliance workflows using enterprise AI tools (OpenAI, Claude, custom Slackbots) to cut down manual workpaper tie-outs.
• Act as a Corptax International Module power user, driving efficiency gains across the compliance cycle.

Global Collaboration

• Work closely with U.S.-based tax counterparts through regular sync cadences, while staying aligned day-to-day with India tax leadership.

What We're Looking For

• Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field.
• 3–6 years of corporate income tax compliance experience at a public accounting firm (Big 4, Grant Thornton, BDO) or a multinational enterprise.
• Solid grasp of book-to-tax adjustments and tax methods of accounting.
• Hands-on experience preparing U.S. international tax forms (5471, 8858, GILTI/Subpart F) and Form 1120 components.
• Working familiarity with Transfer Pricing, CbCR, PFICs, Section 163(j), and M&A tax considerations.
• Hands-on mastery of Corptax (International Module); Workday ERP, Tableau, or Alteryx experience is a plus.
• Strong ownership mindset, tech-forward orientation, and comfort operating beyond traditional U.S. international tax boundaries in a fast-paced environment.
• Excellent verbal and written English for daily collaboration with U.S. and global partners.
