Senior Frontend Developer
Front-End Developer (Earth Observation / Geospatial)Location: Orlando, FloridaSector: Earth Observation, Space, GeospatialExperience: Mid–Senior Level (4+ years experience)NewSpace Technical are working with an exciting NewSpace company that is building a modern geospatial platform to support next-generation satellite data products. Backed by strong technical leadership and a clear mission, this company is focused on making complex spatial data easier to explore, analyze, and act on.This is an opportunity to join early, have real ownership, and help shape a product that sits at the intersection of space, software, and data.The OpportunityOur client is developing a web-based platform for discovering, visualizing, and analyzing large-scale spatiotemporal datasets derived from satellite and airborne sensors. The goal is to turn massive volumes of Earth observation data into intuitive, interactive tools that users can work with directly in the browser.As a Front-End Engineer, you’ll focus on building high-performance user interfaces using React and TypeScript, enabling users to explore complex geospatial data such as:3D point cloud data rendered in-browser using WebGLRaster imagery (e.g. GeoTIFFs) visualized via modern web mapping frameworksVector spatial data for overlays, annotations, and region-based analysisSpatial reference systems and map projections to align and compare datasetsYou’ll help solve one of the core challenges in EO software: making large, high-dimensional spatial datasets feel fast, usable, and intuitive for end users.What You’ll Be DoingBuilding and maintaining modern front-end applications with React and TypeScriptDeveloping reusable, well-structured UI components with performance in mindTurning product requirements and design concepts into intuitive user experiencesIntegrating front-end features with backend APIs and asynchronous data pipelinesContributing to UI architecture, performance optimisation, and shared component librariesWorking closely with product, design, and engineering in a fast-moving startup environmentWhat They’re Looking ForRequired4+ years of experience building web applications with React and TypeScriptStrong understanding of component-based architecture, state management, and async data handlingExperience working within larger codebases and improving existing systemsSolid knowledge of modern JavaScript, HTML, and CSSExperience integrating front-end applications with backend services and APIsFamiliarity with modern front-end tooling, testing, and build systemsNice to HaveExperience with web mapping libraries (Mapbox GL JS or similar)Exposure to WebGL or browser-based 3D renderingExperience with performance tuning in ReactWork on design systems or reusable UI librariesGood UI/UX instincts and experience collaborating with designersWhy This Role Stands OutJoin a NewSpace EO startup where your work has visible, real-world impactHigh ownership and influence over product and technical directionWork on cutting-edge Earth observation and geospatial technologyCollaborate with a small, highly technical team that values quality and clarityStrong opportunities for growth as the company scalesIf you’re a front-end engineer excited by space, geospatial data, and early-stage environments, this is a rare chance to work on a genuinely meaningful product.Get in touch and apply today!
