Frontend Engineer (UI/UX)

# Frontend Engineer (UI/UX)

We're looking for a Frontend Engineer to design and build modern, responsive web applications for **Command & Control (C2)** and collaborative autonomy platforms. You'll create intuitive, high-performance interfaces for mission management, autonomous system coordination, mapping, and real-time decision support while helping shape the future of autonomy at scale.

## What It's Like to Work Here

We're a fast-paced engineering team that believes the best products are built by testing early, iterating often, and shipping quickly. Engineers have a high degree of ownership and work across the entire product lifecycle—from idea to deployment.

Field testing is a core part of how we build. We prefer to be on the water daily, validating new features, observing operators, and seeing our systems perform in real-world conditions. That direct connection between engineering and field operations helps us make better design decisions, move faster, and build products that solve real problems.

## What You'll Work On

* Design and build modern web applications using **React**, **Redux**, and TypeScript. * Shape the user experience for next-generation **Command & Control (C2)** and collaborative autonomy platforms. * Build intuitive interfaces for planning, monitoring, and coordinating teams of autonomous systems. * Help evolve collaborative autonomy from smaller coordinated teams to large, heterogeneous fleets operating across domains. * Design user experiences that enable operators to confidently command, monitor, and manage increasingly complex autonomous missions at scale. * Build interactive mapping, mission planning, and situational awareness experiences using **Mapbox**, **MapLibre**, and real-time geospatial data. * Create real-time dashboards and operational visualizations powered by live telemetry, WebSockets, and cloud services. * Build scalable frontend architecture that supports increasingly complex missions, larger deployments, and new autonomous capabilities. * Work closely with autonomy, robotics, and backend engineers to rapidly prototype, test, and deploy new capabilities.

## Requirements

* 3+ years of experience building production web applications with **React**. * Strong experience with **Redux** (or similar state management libraries). * Experience with **Mapbox**, **MapLibre**, or other interactive mapping frameworks. * Strong understanding of TypeScript, modern JavaScript, HTML, and CSS. * Strong UI/UX skills with an eye for clean, intuitive, and visually polished interfaces. * Ability to simplify complex operational workflows into intuitive user experiences. * Experience consuming REST APIs, WebSockets, connectRPC, or gRPC services. * Experience building responsive, production-quality web applications. * Familiarity with Git, CI/CD, and Agile development practices.

## Nice to Have

* Experience developing Command & Control (C2), collaborative autonomy, mission planning, robotics, or autonomous systems software. * Experience with mapping, telemetry, real-time operational visualization, or fleet management systems. * Familiarity with Figma, design systems, or component libraries. * Experience with Deck.gl, D3.js, or other visualization libraries. * Working knowledge of Go and AWS. * Experience with Kubernetes, AWS Lambda, or distributed systems. * Knowledge of WebRTC or SRT streaming.
