Through the creation of this centralized and seamless technological ecosystem, we achieve powerful operational synergies. This work directly drives agent efficiency and deeper client loyalty, ultimately leading to strengthened platform adoption, enhanced customer retention, and increased per-transaction profitability for Compass.

• Develop Robust Integrations: Partner closely with backend engineers to securely and efficiently consume internal APIs and third-party partner integrations (such as Assurant, GRA, and Origin Point).
• Implement Complex Business Logic: Address complex product requirements within the UI tier, handling multi-tenancy rules, form validations, and complex state management across various real estate workflows.
• Elevate Frontend Standards: Write high-quality, testable, and performant code. Establish frontend best practices, lead UI-focused design reviews, and champion accessibility and performance across the Integrated Services ecosystem.

What We Look For:

• 5+ years of software engineering experience, with a strong emphasis on frontend development using TypeScript and React.
• Deep expertise in frontend architecture, complex state management, and building scalable, reusable UI component libraries.
• Proven experience migrating legacy frontend applications to modern web architectures while maintaining a seamless user experience.
• Strong understanding of web performance optimization, accessibility standards (a11y), and cross-browser compatibility.
• Solid experience integrating complex frontend applications with backend microservices via gRPC.
• A collaborative, full-stack mindset with the ability and willingness to navigate or contribute to backend services (e.g., Go or Node.js) when needed to unblock features.
• Dedication to frontend testing best practices utilizing tools like Jest, Cypress, or React Testing Library.
• Comfort working across modern CI/CD tooling, frontend build pipelines (e.g., Webpack, Vite), and collaborative Git-based workflows.
• Practical experience using AI-assisted development tools in real delivery environments, including familiarity with tools like ClaudeCode and concepts such as CLAUDE.md project configuration and custom skills.
• BS in Computer Science or equivalent practical experience.
