CompassX is a boutique business and technology consulting firm. We help Fortune 500 and high-growth clients deliver their most strategic initiatives, from enterprise transformations to digital and data-driven projects. With over 15 years of proven results, we’ve expanded across industries including financial services, pharmaceuticals, aerospace, consumer products, and quick service restaurants.

We are honored to be recognized as a three-time winner of Consulting Magazine’s Best Boutique Firms to Work For, and previously recognized as a “Best Place to Work” in Southern California and one of INC.’s 5000 fastest-growing private companies in the U.S.

We’re looking for a Senior Solutions Developer to join one of our enterprise client engagements. You’ll work directly with the client’s teams to understand how their work gets done, find where it’s slowed down by manual processes and disconnected tools, and then build the custom web applications that fix it.

This role suits a developer who enjoys the conversation as much as the code. You won’t be handed a spec. You’ll sit with the people doing the work, ask probing questions, shape the right solution with them, and then build it yourself, using AI coding tools to move quickly. It’s a consultative role, but a hands-on one: you’ll be accountable for what gets built and whether people actually use it.

Work closely with client stakeholders to understand their workflows, their data, and what they need

Turn those conversations into clear requirements and a practical plan for what to build

Design and build custom web applications end to end, from the front end to the integrations behind it

Use AI coding tools such as Claude Code to build quickly, and write code that’s tested, reviewed and easy to maintain

Partner with the client’s technical leads on architecture, then own the delivery

Deliver visible improvements every sprint and refine based on feedback

Document your work so the client can support it after the engagement

7+ years of software development, including building custom web applications end-to-end

Strong front-end and back-end skills, with experience connecting applications to databases and other systems. Technologies such as React, TypeScript, Node.js, GraphQL, and AWS serverless are all highly desirable

A consultative approach: you’re comfortable leading conversations with stakeholders and turning them into working software

Hands-on use of AI coding tools such as Claude Code or GitHub Copilot in your day-to-day development

Experience deploying applications on a cloud platform, ideally AWS

A good grasp of how data is structured and moves between systems

Consulting or client-facing experience, or an internal role where you worked closely with the business

Our consultants say CompassX is a place where they can truly find their own path. As part of a smaller firm, they see the impact of their work, have an identity, and know their voice matters. They value the freedom to take the reins of their careers, shape their client work, and maintain a direct line to leadership.

With CompassX’s focus on serving local Southern California clients, consultants not only build lasting relationships but also see the results of their work in the communities where they live.

At CompassX, you won’t just follow a path - you’ll create one.
