We're building tools for space missions. Our crown jewel is a stack of in-house simulators. The work ranges from implementing performant physics models and raytracing algorithms to complex interfaces, API design and UX. Our focus is on building small, independent teams. We think what we're working on is pretty cool and fun, and everyone here is passionate for a bunch of stuff, work-related or otherwise :)
We're looking for a full-stack software engineer with an eye for design. You work from first principles, advocate for frequent prototyping and employ data-driven decision making. Above all else, you honor your craft. The New Jersey style and the handmade ethos resonate with you.
Over the next year you'll focus on user-facing features that let engineers interact directly with hardware, workflows and data — building beautiful, highly functional displays so they can easily run and analyze complex simulations. Refine API boundaries and face interesting deployment challenges. This role gives you a broad, high-level view of the entire company, connecting the software you write directly to the mathematical models and hardware we rely on to build reliable spacecraft. As you prototype on the UI, you'll actively help refine the backbone of our in-house tech. This role is for those who seek maximum agency across every aspect of what we're building.
The ideal candidate moves through design cycles fast and owns the end-to-end process. Our philosophy is to get things built and tested in days or weeks, not months. Because of this, a portfolio is generally required
