About Blue J

Blue J is the leading solution in generative AI for tax experts. We’re a B2B SaaS company whose customers are accountants and lawyers, and our AI-tax research software is the best in the market.

We are racing ahead with an exciting product development roadmap to continue to delight our customers and to ensure that our users can generate the very best possible tax research answers in the service of their clients in record time.

Since launching our flagship Generative AI product, we have blown past our revenue targets quarter over quarter, and are looking for a Partner Marketing Manager to help us scale. We’ve just announced our Series C funding and are looking for someone to take the reins of our partner marketing efforts bringing creativity, strategy, and organization to the next phase of our growth.
