Jobware is an online job listing portal. This project focused on developing the Jobware salary calculator as a central value-added tool to increase user engagement on the career portal. The basis is the income tax deduction flow chart published by the German Federal Ministry of Finance. The implementation was automatically tested against an interface provided by the Ministry of Finance.
My contributions to the project::
- Implementation of income tax calculation
- Research on social security contributions, contribution assessment ceilings, and related topics in laws and regulations
- Automated comparison tests of calculated income tax amounts against an HTTP interface
- Annual and mid-year updates to the implementation
