Senior Software Engineer – Windows Desktop with PowerBASIC

Exp:- 6+ years

REMOTE

We are looking for a seasoned software engineer to join a product team responsible for a large-scale, mission-critical Windows desktop application used in high-volume tax preparation and filing. This application is a core part of a widely used, IRS-certified tax platform and continues to receive active feature development.

This role is ideal for engineers who enjoy working closely with the system, are comfortable navigating legacy codebases, and take pride in delivering reliable software under complex, real-world constraints. While the technology stack is mature, the work directly supports new features, regulatory requirements, and business growth.

What You’ll Do

Build, enhance, and maintain features within a large Windows desktop application written in PowerBASIC

Work inside a long-standing monolithic codebase where stability, correctness, and performance are essential

Debug and resolve complex issues in legacy code with limited modern abstractions

Collaborate with product managers and fellow engineers to deliver features tied to real customer and revenue impact

Safely evolve existing tax logic while ensuring compliance and system integrity

Contribute to code reviews and technical discussions focused on precision and risk management rather than wholesale rewrites





Support ongoing feature delivery in an environment where modernization is intentionally limited

What We’re Looking For

Strong experience developing Windows desktop applications, using PowerBASIC.

Comfort working in large, monolithic codebases

Excellent debugging and analytical skills

Ability to learn and work effectively in older systems that may lack up-to-date tooling or documentation

Strong communication skills and the ability to collaborate with distributed teams

Nice to Have

Experience with tax software, tax preparation processes, financial systems, or other regulated domains

Familiarity with IRS-certified platforms or compliance-driven applications

Knowledge of older Windows APIs or desktop frameworks

Prior experience maintaining long-lived commercial software products

Why You Might Like This Role

You enjoy solving hard problems in real production systems

You prefer shipping meaningful features over chasing the newest framework

You value stability, craftsmanship, and correctness

You like being one of the few people who can work effectively in a specialized technical environment

You want to make a direct impact on a product used by millions of people

Engagement Details

Embedded role within an established internal engineering team

Long-term engagement focused on feature delivery and system continuity

Not a rewrite or modernization project, this role is about building on what already works
