Here at The Exploration Company, we are developing, producing, and operating Nyx, a modular and reusable space orbital vehicle that can eventually be refuelled in orbit and that can carry cargo - and potentially humans in the longer run.

Key Responsibilities

In your capacity as a Full-Stack Software Engineer you will:

• Design and implement intuitive, dynamic user interfaces that support runtime configuration and customization

• Integrate the frontend with a dedicated middleware layer via gRPC, WebSockets, or REST API

• Visualize telemetry and control elements (e.g., valves, sensors, states) in interactive UI components and diagram views

• Work with PLC and middleware engineers to align on data structures, control logic, and system safety behavior

• Ensure a reliable, responsive, and operator-friendly HMI experience with clean UX and guarded interactions

• Contribute maintainable component architecture and comprehensive test coverage

What we would love to see from you

The ideal candidate will have:

• Strong experience with JavaScript/TypeScript and modern web frameworks like React or Vue

• A solid grasp of streaming communication protocols such as WebSockets or gRPC Web

• Familiarity with designing operator-facing UIs for control environments

• Experience visualizing structured data and dynamic states (e.g., charts, status indicators, interactive SVGs)

• Ability to collaborate closely with middleware and PLC engineers to translate system behavior into clear, safe, and intuitive user interfaces

• Solid understanding of software design patterns and best practices

• Hands-on experience with agile software development methodologies

• Motivation to work in a fast-paced environment with demanding timelines

• High attention to detail with an ability to balance quality & speed

• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills

Bonus qualifications:

• Exposure to containerization with Docker

• Experience with diagramming or flow libraries such as React Flow or SVG-based frameworks

• Exposure to control system UIs, SCADA-style interfaces, or similar HMI applications

• Familiarity with frontend testing frameworks, state management (e.g., Zustand, Pinia), or performance profiling tools
