🚀About Compa

Compa is a venture-backed SaaS startup revolutionizing the future of compensation.

In a dynamic job market with hiring challenges, accountability, and the rise of AI, companies need the best data to stay ahead of industry changes, competition, and costs. Compa has developed the premier real-time compensation data platform, delivering top-tier compensation intelligence to leading enterprise teams.

Compa is a compensation intelligence company built to augment enterprise compensation teams in the era of AI.

Our customers include the world’s biggest companies: Apple, NVIDIA, Tesla, Mastercard, T‑Mobile, Sanofi, Moderna, Gilead Sciences, and more.

Location:

While Compa is a remote friendly company, for this role there is a preference for candidates located near one of our offices in Irvine, CA, Denver, CO or Boston, MA.

The Role:

At Compa, we’re building the future of enterprise compensation. Our platform helps the world’s largest companies make smarter, fairer, and more transparent pay decisions—powered by live data and thoughtful design.

As a Software Engineer, you’ll have significant ownership and autonomy to build the systems and infrastructure that power Compa’s core products. You’ll work across the stack, collaborate closely with product and design, and contribute to features that directly impact enterprise customers.

In this role, you will:

  • Ship production‑grade software across Compa’s web app and backend systems

  • Build new features and improve existing workflows in collaboration with Product and Design

  • Write clean, scalable code and contribute to system architecture decisions

  • Participate in code reviews, team rituals, and roadmap discussions

  • Solve real problems for enterprise compensation teams—from data pipelines to user experience

Minimum Qualifications
  • 2+ years of experience shipping production software in a collaborative environment

  • Strong proficiency in at least one modern web development language or framework

  • Comfortable working across the stack or specializing in either frontend or backend

  • Proven ability to work autonomously and follow through on commitments

  • Pragmatic and thoughtful about trade‑offs—focus on outcomes over tools

  • Strong communication and collaboration skills

Preferred Qualifications
  • Experience in early‑stage or high‑growth startup environments

  • Familiarity with compensation, HR tech, or enterprise SaaS (not required)

  • Experience working on data‑driven products or complex user workflows

  • Interest or experience in AI systems or ML infrastructure (a plus, not a requirement)

  • Comfortable navigating ambiguity and working in fast‑paced, iterative environments

Tech Stack

You don’t need experience with all of these, but familiarity with any is a plus:

  • Backend: Django, Python

  • Frontend: React, TypeScript, GraphQL

  • Infrastructure: AWS

  • Other Tools: vLLM, Linear, Slack, Notion, Metabase
