Frontend Engineer (React, Typescript, Next.js)

Frontend Engineer – High-Performance Data & Visualization Platform (React, Typescript, Next.js)

I’m working with a high-calibre engineering team building a modern software platform that powers some of the world’s most advanced hardware systems across aerospace, autonomy, robotics, and next-generation industrial tech.

Their product sits at the intersection of hardware and software - ingesting high-rate telemetry, validating complex autonomy systems in real time, and giving engineers powerful tools to iterate faster without sacrificing safety or reliability.

They’re a small, elite team solving genuinely hard technical problems with real-world impact.

The role

They’re looking for a Frontend Engineer to help build polished, high-performance web interfaces used by engineers working on complex, data-heavy systems.

You’ll be working primarily in React and TypeScript, partnering closely with backend, product, and design to turn complex technical data into fast, intuitive, and genuinely usable interfaces.

This is a great fit for someone who enjoys working close to the product, cares deeply about UX, and likes building tools for highly technical users.

What you’ll be doing

• Building and shipping frontend features using React, Next.js, and TypeScript
• Designing and implementing clean, intuitive UI for complex workflows and datasets
• Working closely with backend engineers to integrate APIs and data pipelines
• Partnering with product and design to iterate on user experience and workflows
• Helping shape scalable frontend architecture for performance-sensitive applications
• Optimising performance for large datasets and real-time / near-real-time systems

What they’re looking for

• 3+ years experience building production frontend applications
• Strong experience with React and TypeScript
• A strong eye for UX and design details
• Experience building tools for technical users (dashboards, data platforms, visualisation tools, complex editors, etc.)
• Someone collaborative who wants to influence product direction, not just execute tickets

Nice to have

• Next.js experience
• Tailwind or similar modern CSS frameworks
• Experience integrating APIs (REST, GraphQL, or tRPC-style)
• Performance optimisation experience for data-heavy UIs
• Interest or experience in data visualisation or graphics-heavy interfaces

Why this is interesting

• You’re working on a product used in real mission-critical environments
• You’re solving genuinely hard UX + performance problems, not marketing sites
• Small, high-talent-density team with real ownership and impact
• Strong compensation, benefits, and long-term growth
