Software Engineer - Frontend Autonomous Air System V&V

About the role

Our Autonomous Air System V&V team builds the simulation and validation environments that enable rigorous testing of autonomous air systems before they ever leave the ground. We develop Software-in-the-Loop (SiL) and Hardware-in-the-Loop (HiL) environments that allow engineers to integrate, test, and assure AI-driven capabilities against virtualised and representative hardware.

What you'll do

• Own the user interface end-to-end, from early wireframes and prototypes through to production-ready code, working closely with product and UX colleagues.
• Translate complex technical data into usable, intuitive interfaces — turning raw simulation outputs, test results, and AI behavior data into visualizations engineers can understand and act on.
• Propose and implement new features, capabilities, visualizations, or full products across the stack.
• Establish and evolve the component library, ensuring consistency, reusability, and alignment with visual design standards across multiple front-ends.
• Review code contributions, proposals, and RFCs from colleagues.
• Connect with, understand, and make changes to backend systems as needed (primarily Rust).
• Become a mentor, find a mentee, and help support and develop the interviewing pipeline.
• Further develop tests and benchmarks, both at the micro and macro level.

What you'll need

• Strong frontend design and coding experience with JavaScript.
• State-of-the-art experience with frameworks like React.
• Strong user research and prototyping skills; enjoy designing for technical products and data-heavy UIs.
• Experience with APIs and server-client communication like REST and GraphQL.
• Comfortable working with unfamiliar backends, ideally with some exposure to languages like Rust.
• Ability to write legible, maintainable, and performant code.
• Communicates well in English, both verbally and in writing.
• Comfortable working asynchronously (writing PRs and RFCs, having discussions by email).
