Work you'll do:
As a Software Specialist you will work collaboratively with our project teams to identify eligible federal Research & Development (R&D) tax credit generating activities and assist with the analysis and documentation of such opportunities.

You will work with an experienced and passionate team in a growing area.
The ideal candidate is invested in the team's success and effectively manages multiple workstreams. As a software specialist you will:
• Lead technical discussions with clients and evaluate the activities performed and scope of work to determine R&D credit eligibility
• Educate meeting participants and convey expertise in both the R&D tax credit and nuances of how it applies to the field of software engineering
• Review and provide technical feedback to Deloitte teams and Client representatives to collect information needed to document qualifying R&D projects
• Review technical documentation to evaluate that it supports clients' activities as qualified R&D
• Evaluate the specifics of client R&D activities and make determination of whether it is qualified research
• Deliver value to clients by identifying opportunities and advising clients on potential benefit and eligibility requirements, and
• Monitor legislative and regulatory tax developments and work with the team to present potential.
• Engage with numerous different clients and Deloitte project teams, simultaneously, across our national practice.
