Frontend Engineer

Role: Senior Front-End EngineerLocation/Time zones: US-based (East Coast preferred; Mountain works).Work setup: Remote (collaborative, fast-moving team).Mission: Build and ship a dynamic, geospatial web application used in a mission-critical environment.What you’ll doOwn and ship front-end features end-to-end in a TypeScript/React codebase.Build interactive geospatial UI workflows (Cesium-based) and surrounding app UX.Translate ambiguous requirements into working increments: break down tasks, identify dependencies, prioritize, and execute.Improve UI performance and reliability in a data-heavy, dynamic application (not a static marketing site).Collaborate closely with backend engineers to define contracts, unblock yourself, and move work forward without heavy hand-holding.Contribute to front-end standards: code quality, component patterns, testing strategy, and release hygiene.What we’re looking for5+ years building production React applications (TypeScript strongly preferred).Strong “get-things-done” engineering instincts: you can take a task and drive it to completion in a small team.Experience working on complex, interactive UIs (state management, async flows, performance considerations).Familiarity with component libraries and design systems (we’re using MUI / Material UI).Solid debugging and problem-solving skills—able to unblock yourself rather than waiting on others.Comfortable collaborating in a shared codebase with standards and best practices.Nice-to-havesGeospatial/GIS experience (Cesium, map-heavy UIs, geo data interactions).Some backend familiarity (enough to understand APIs, debug issues, and collaborate smoothly).Python experience as a plus (helps when working cross-stack with our environment).Experience supporting simulation-style or real-time-ish workflows (gaming, visualization, mapping, flight/vehicle systems, etc.).
