  • Supports income tax compliance, tax accounting, and federal income tax audits as needed.

AI Enablement & Technology Utilization

  • Leverages AI‑enabled tools (e.g., Microsoft Copilot or similar) to accelerate tax research by summarizing statutes, regulations, rulings, and case law while retaining responsibility for technical conclusions.

  • Uses AI to draft and refine tax research memos, transaction summaries, and stakeholder communications, improving speed and consistency while applying professional judgment.

  • Applies AI‑assisted data analysis to review transaction fact patterns, compare structural alternatives, identify anomalies, and support modeling assumptions.

  • Understands appropriate governance, confidentiality, and validation controls when using AI with tax‑sensitive and financial data.
