Senior Software Engineer II - Front End

Responsibilities

• CRM Insights is transforming Compass's CRM from a system of record into an intelligent system of action — using AI-driven insights to surface data patterns and proactively guide agents toward high-value activity. As the FE Lead, you'll shape a strategic, high-visibility product surface — building innovative dashboards, notifications, and reporting interfaces that make those insights actionable for thousands of agents.
• Architect, build, and maintain high-performance, distributed, event-driven microservices and cloud infrastructure, while ensuring seamless integration with modern, intuitive frontend interfaces.
• Independently define, decompose, and lead the delivery of complex technical projects and subsystems across the entire stack.
• Build and operationalize modern software patterns, including integrating AI models, data pipelines, and telemetry systems to automate workflows.
• Perform rigorous code and design reviews, write high-quality automated tests (unit, integration, and end-to-end), and continuously leave codebases cleaner and more performant than you found them.
• Act as a subject matter expert, creating clear technical documentation (architecture diagrams, runbooks, and specs) and owning your services and applications throughout their entire lifecycle.
• Work closely with cross-functional stakeholders to balance requirements, resolve systemic bottlenecks, and actively mentor peers to level up the engineering team.
