Company: Optimal Connection Global Services (OCGS)

Location: Remote (India)

Job Type: Full-Time

Schedule: Aligned with U.S. business hours

About the Client
We are a dynamic, fast-growing US company providing top-tier financial and advisory services. We are committed to delivering excellence in every aspect of our operations, and our team plays a crucial role in driving our clients' success.
We are currently seeking a highly articulate, technically proficient, and detail-oriented Tax Accountant with US Tax knowledge based in India to join our remote team.

Role Overview
This role is tailored for a US Tax professional who excels at the "final mile" of the tax process: the client delivery meeting.
While deep technical US tax preparation and compliance are baseline requirements, this role is specifically designed for an accountant who can translate a 100-page tax return into a clear, strategic narrative. You will serve as the primary bridge between complex Internal Revenue Code (IRC) applications and our clients' financial peace of mind.

Key Responsibilities
1. Client Consultation & Results Delivery

- Conduct "Tax Results Reviews" via call, email, and/or video conference, walking clients through Form 1040, 1065, or 1120S results.
- Translate complex US tax concepts—such as Passive Activity Loss (PAL) limitations, Qualified Business Income (QBI) deductions, and Alternative Minimum Tax (AMT)—into clear, accessible insights.
- Address client concerns regarding "Balance Due" or "Refund" amounts with empathy, data-backed evidence, and professional candor.

2. Technical Analysis & US Tax Compliance

- Review complex US federal and multi-state tax returns for strict accuracy,



ensuring all tax positions are fully compliant and supported by Treasury Regulations and Revenue Rulings.
- Calculate, strategize, and explain quarterly estimated tax payment requirements to prevent underpayment penalties.

Qualifications & Expertise

- US Tax Knowledge: Comprehensive expertise in US Federal and State tax laws, reporting rules, and compliance standards.
- Education: Bachelor’s or Master's degree in Accountancy, Taxation, or a related field.
- Experience: Proven track record in US tax preparation, review, and client-facing advisory roles.
- Communication: Exceptional verbal and written English fluency, with a confident, polished presence on video consultations.

Technical & Home Office Requirements

- Workspace: A quiet, dedicated, and professional home office free from background noise and distractions.
- Hardware: Modern PC or Mac (Minimum: Intel i5/AMD Ryzen 5 processor or equivalent, 16GB RAM recommended).
- Connectivity: High-speed, secure internet connection (minimum 25 Mbps download/upload speed) with a reliable backup connection.
- Peripherals: Noise-canceling headset with a high-quality microphone and a high-definition webcam for video meetings.
- Power: A reliable backup power setup (UPS or power station) to ensure uninterrupted workflow.

What We Offer

- 100% Remote Work: Enjoy the flexibility and comfort of working from home.
- Growth Potential: Continuous professional development in high-level US tax strategy and advisory.
- Competitive Pay: Generous monthly compensation paid directly in INR.
- Supportive Culture: Work alongside a collaborative team that values ownership, technical excellence, and work-life balance.
