Job description

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.

As a critical member of this cross‑functional team of 10 engineers, and part of a broader 30‑person engineering organization, you’ll play a vital role in developing customer‑facing analytics and systems integrations.

This role is primarily hands‑on development with an opportunity to contribute to UI design. You will thrive in this role 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.

• 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 U.S. security clearance.

Preferred qualifications

• Experience with Next.js, React, or equivalent framework.
• Familiarity with Highcharts or other charting libraries and/or Python programming.
• Background in UI/graphic design is a plus.
• Knowledge of math/physics, AI/ML, or orbital mechanics is highly valued.

Within 1 month, you’ll:

• Complete onboarding to understand our business, mission, and engineering culture.
• Set up your local development environment, tools, and access.
• Attend sprint ceremonies and shadow code reviews to begin ramping up on the Insights codebase and processes.

Within 3 months, you’ll:

• Gain solid understanding of the front‑end architecture and dependencies for Insights product UIs.
• Begin developing small‑to‑medium scoped features with coaching and mentoring support.
• Work comfortably within the team’s agile processes and contribute to task planning and estimation.

Within 6 months, you’ll:

• Demonstrate solid grasp of Front‑end architecture, dependencies, and operational practices.
• Actively contribute to software deliverables with some coaching and mentoring, consistently shipping well‑tested, reliable code.
• Take ownership of deliverables from design through implementation.

Within 12 months, you’ll:
