Goodfin Engagement: Consultant or Part-Time (with potential to transition in-house) Focus: SPV tax structuring, K-1 preparation & filing, and QSBS analysis About Goodfin Goodfin is an AI-native investment platform for private markets. We structure and manage SPVs that give accredited investors access to pre‑IPO and private investment opportunities, with a strong emphasis on transparency, quality, and investor experience. The Role We're looking for an experienced tax professional to own Goodfin's SPV tax function end-to-end — from structuring new vehicles to preparing and filing K-1s and leading QSBS analysis.

This role starts as a consulting or part-time engagement, with a clear path to grow into a fractional or full-time in-house position as deal volume scales. You won't be reviewing work handed to you — you'll be the one preparing and filing it. You'll work closely with operations, product, and legal to ensure our tax posture is sound and our investor reporting is accurate and timely.
