Debevoise Hong Kong is hiring a tax associate (2nd to 5th years, but there may be flexibility in class year), ideally with experience in funds tax. Comp is the latest DPW/Cravath scale plus a COLA each year and moving costs. I'm currently there, and I'm happy to chat if anyone is interested.

FWIW, there isn't a referral bonus in it for me.

I'm not looking to make a move right now, but I was curious - are there many roles for US tax attorneys in HK? Is it usually funds type work or are there also M&A tax roles? I'm a tax lawyer in NY but have an interest in working in Asia...

If you’re only interested in roles with US firms, then I’d say the opportunities are very limited at the moment, but that may be changing. If you’d be open to in-house roles or roles with Big 4, there are plenty of options (at least based on the number of messages I get from recruiters on LinkedIn). Feel free to DM me if you want to discuss further.
