Answer

In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

As-salāmu 'alaykum wa-rahmatullāhi wa-barakātuh.

 

Your sensitivity to earning a halal income is commendable. Earning a halal income invokes the mercy of Allah Ta'āla and barakah in one's wealth.

Since software development itself does not entail any haram action, therefore, it will be permissible for you to work in the software department of such a company.[1]

 

And Allah Ta'āla Knows Best
