Senior Software Engineer, Front End

Space is a warfighting domain. True Anomaly seeks those with the talent and ambition to build the technology that secures it. OUR MISSION True Anomaly delivers decisive capabilities for space superiority.

S. and its Allies to secure the space environment and counter threats from the ultimate high ground. OUR VALUES Be the offset.

We create asymmetric advantages with creativity and ingenuity. What would it take? We challenge assumptions to deliver ambitious results.

It’s the people. Our team is our competitive advantage and we are better together. YOUR MISSION Software is the central nervous system for True Anomaly’s engineering and product thesis.

Software bridges the gap between military objectives, theoretical astrodynamics and the human and autonomous control of spacecraft and ground systems in time and space. True Anomaly is seeking a dedicated Senior Front End Software Engineer to contribute to the continuing evolution of our complex spacecraft modeling and simulation software. This is a high-autonomy, high-accountability role.

You'll own entire feature domains from conception to production, drive architectural decisions that affect the entire frontend surface, and set the standard for code quality that junior and mid-level engineers will follow. You won't wait to be assigned work, you'll identify what needs to be done, propose solutions, and drive them to completion. When you see tech debt, you'll flag it, scope it, and champion the work to address it.

When patterns aren't serving us, you'll propose better ones and lead their adoption. You do not need to have experience building space ground systems or experience in aerospace.

Benefits

including platinum healthcare, flexible work hours/location, highly competitive

Compensation

and a generous stock options package.

RESPONSIBILITIES

Own and deliver complex 2D and 3D web-based frontend features end-to-end, from technical design through production deployment and iteration Drive architectural direction for frontend systems, establishing patterns and conventions that scale across the team and codebase Proactively identify and address technical debt, performance bottlenecks, and opportunities for refactoring Set the quality bar through rigorous code review, championing testing practices, and writing code that serves as a reference implementation for the team Mentor and elevate junior and mid-level engineers through pairing, design discussions, and constructive code review that teaches, not just approves Collaborate as a technical partner with product, design, backend engineers, QA, space operators, and astrodynamics algorithm engineers—contributing to system-wide architectural decisions Ship efficiently and iteratively , breaking complex work into well-scoped increments while maintaining a bias toward completion over perfection Document decisions and patterns , ensuring the team's collective knowledge grows and onboarding becomes easier over time WHAT SUCCESS LOOKS LIKE IN THIS ROLE You see a PR from a junior engineer that works but violates codebase conventions—you don't just approve it; you take the time to explain the patterns and why they matter You notice a component is being copy-pasted across the codebase—you propose and implement an abstraction, then document when and how to use it You're assigned a feature and the

Requirements

are ambiguous—you proactively clarify with product and design, propose a technical approach, and share it with the team before diving into implementation You see downtime as an opportunity, not a break—you're the kind of engineer who notices the flaky test everyone's been ignoring and decides to finally fix it You disagree with an architectural de
