Why LeoLabs?

At LeoLabs, we’re building the living map of activity in space. Through our proprietary global radar network and AI-enabled analytics platform, we collect millions of measurements daily on more than 241,000 objects in low Earth orbit (LEO). Our radar-powered intelligence protects billions in assets, monitors adversarial behavior, and ensures safe operations for commercial and government missions.

We’re not just building technology; we are redefining global security, safety, and transparency in space. As orbital activity accelerates and threats grow more complex, LeoLabs is a trusted partner for Space Domain Awareness, Space Traffic Management, and Satellite Operations for top-tier space operators and allied defense organizations.

If you’re looking to work on mission‑critical challenges at the forefront of aerospace, national security, and AI, your impact starts here.

The Opportunity

LeoLabs is seeking a highly motivated Front‑End Software Engineer to join our collaborative Insights team. As a critical member of this cross‑functional team of 10 Engineers—part of a broader 30‑person Engineering organization—you’ll play a vital role in developing customer‑facing analytics and systems integrations.

Your work will directly impact how our customers visualize orbital data and space activity, enabling real‑time operational decisions to protect and manage objects in low‑earth orbit. The Insights team builds rich user interfaces, manages API integrations, and deploys software both in the cloud and on‑site, leveraging data from LeoLabs’ data lake and services maintained by other specialized teams.

This role is primarily hands‑on development with an opportunity to contribute to UI design. You will thrive at LeoLabs if you enjoy building intuitive, responsive web applications and collaborating closely with a diverse team.

What You’ll Do

• Design, build, test, deploy, and maintain modern, responsive web interfaces that present complex space‑related data in a clear, actionable way.
• Collaborate closely with cross‑functional teams, including backend engineers, data scientists, and product managers, to integrate APIs and customer systems.
• Deploy and support code in cloud and on‑premises environments.
• Contribute to continuous improvement of front‑end architecture and operational practices.
• Participate actively in Agile workflows, sprint planning, and code reviews.

Qualifications

• B.S. in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or equivalent practical experience.
• Minimum 3 years of professional experience as a Front‑end Software Engineer in fast‑paced software development environments.
• Extensive experience with designing, building, testing, deploying and maintaining modern, responsive Web UIs.
• Strong expertise with TypeScript, JavaScript, Node.js, HTML and CSS.
• Deep understanding of software development best practices, testing methodologies, and Agile workflows and principles.
• Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to collaborate across teams and stakeholders.
• Willingness to participate in on‑call rotations for critical issue resolution.
• Eligibility for US security clearance.

Preferred qualifications

• Experience with Next.js, React or equivalent framework.
• Familiarity with Highcharts or other charting libraries and/or Python programming.
