Challenge
The development of the payroll calculator API as a part of the W-2 form. The W-2 form used an external, ready-made solution for the employee wages/taxes calculation. The customer needed the implementation of his own payroll calculator API to replace the previous solution for calculations and ensure the stable functioning of its W-2 form generator.

Solution
The development of the solution is done using the Node.js stack in the AWS cloud. The implemented payroll calculator API makes the calculations when the user fills in the following fields:
- State (tax laws can be the same in some states, but sometimes each state has its own unique tax rules and may differ from others)
- Year
- Marital status
- Dependents' amount
- The amount of earned money before taxes last year

Results
The software development team implemented a payroll calculator API from scratch. Due to the development of this part, the customer was able to replace the external back-end solution with its code. The payroll calculator API was successfully connected to the existing front-end as a part of the auto calculator in the W-2 generator form.
