Job Description

About Us:
At CompassX, our clients rely on us to lead high-priority strategic initiatives and transformational projects.  Our mission is to create a community of people who come up with innovative approaches and deliver the best outcomes for our clients.

You will have the opportunity to leverage your experience, creativity, and skills to impact your clients and influence the trajectory of our firm to achieve growth for the team and your career.

We are honored to be recognized as a “Best Place to Work” in Southern California and listed as one of INC.’s 5000 fastest-growing private companies in the U.S.

About the Role
We are seeking an entry-level Software Engineer who is passionate about building software from the ground up. This role is fully remote (CST or EST preferred) and ideal for early-career developers who want hands-on experience designing and developing new software systems, cloud-based applications, and foundational platform tools.

As a Software Engineer, you will be responsible for developing new applications and system components, not just modifying existing code. You’ll work closely with senior engineers and project leads to understand requirements, write clean and scalable code, and support ongoing product enhancements. This role provides strong mentorship and exposure to best practices in modern software engineering.

What You'll Do:

    • Develop new software systems and applications, including cloud-based and internet-facing solutions.
    • Write high-quality code from scratch using modern programming, scripting, and database languages.
    • Gather and analyze requirements to understand the software domain, hardware/software interfaces, and functional needs.
    • Support ongoing enhancements by fixing defects, responding to scope changes, and adding new capabilities.
    • Follow and apply software engineering best practices: coding standards, code reviews, version control, build processes, testing, and deployment readiness.
    • Collaborate closely with supervisors, project leads, and senior engineers to receive direction, feedback, and mentorship.
    • Communicate regularly with team members and build stable working relationships across the organization.

What We’re Looking For:

    • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or related technical discipline (or equivalent experience).
    • Conceptual understanding of software engineering principles, modern programming languages, and industry standards.
    • Ability to learn quickly, follow established processes, and solve routine technical problems.
    • Familiarity with Git/version control, testing frameworks, and SDLC best practices.
    • Strong communication skills and willingness to seek feedback and guidance.
    • Detail-oriented, reliable, and eager to grow in a fast-paced engineering environment.
$55 - $60 an hour
