Front-End Software Engineer II
Inversion Space
<div class="content-intro"><p><strong>Turning Space into a Transportation Layer for Earth</strong></p></div><h3>Who We Are:</h3> <p>Inversion builds advanced reentry systems to deliver next-generation capabilities from space.<br>&nbsp;<br>Our mission is to make Earth radically more accessible by turning Low-Earth Orbit into an on-demand logistics domain. We see space not as a destination, but as a platform — one that unlocks unprecedented speed and global reach.<br>&nbsp;<br>Our spacecraft are designed to deliver payloads anywhere on Earth in under an hour, operating through extreme reentry conditions and landing with high precision. These systems open the door to new ways of testing, delivering, and operating at hypersonic speeds.<br>&nbsp;<br>Inherently dual-use, our technology is built to meet urgent national security needs while laying the groundwork for future commercial applications. Backed by leading investors including Y Combinator, Spark Capital, and Lockheed Martin Ventures, and working with partners such as the U.S. Space Force and NASA, Inversion is pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in space-based defense and logistics.</p> <p></p> <div class="_1e0c1ule renderer-heading-wrapper" data-testid="renderer-heading-wrapper" data-level="3"> <h3 id="About-the-Role" data-local-id="c134acf9caf2" data-renderer-start-pos="686">About the Role</h3> <span class="heading-anchor-wrapper"></span></div> <p data-renderer-start-pos="702" data-local-id="d642fe900757">As a Front-end Engineer at Inversion, you will work as part of the simulation team to design, develop, and maintain the user interface/user experience (UI/UX) of the applications that support the simulation and test environments for our flight systems. The simulation team is responsible for ensuring that flight software and flight hardware can be continuously integrated and tested under realistic flight conditions. You will play a key role in the design and development of data visualization, data analysis, and self-service tools that will enable fast, repeatable development and deployment workflows across the engineering stack. Your work will empower Inversion’s engineering teams to iterate rapidly throughout the development life cycle and will strengthen Inversion’s ability to put our products into the hands of our customers with unprecedented speed and agility.</p> <div class="_1e0c1ule renderer-heading-wrapper" data-testid="renderer-heading-wrapper" data-level="3"> <h3 id="What-You'll-Do" data-local-id="f9add2e89735" data-renderer-start-pos="1579">What You'll Do</h3> </div> <ul> <li data-renderer-start-pos="1597" data-local-id="31470cd79a50">Design, deploy, and maintain the client-side logic and interface of the applications that support simulation workflows, including <strong data-renderer-mark="true">high-performance computing (HPC)</strong>, <strong data-renderer-mark="true">software-in-the-loop (SIL) testing</strong>, and <strong data-renderer-mark="true">hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) testing</strong></li> <li data-renderer-start-pos="1839" data-local-id="e09eee0393f3">Develop the <strong data-renderer-mark="true">front-end tech stack</strong> to ensure the performance and maintainability of our applications</li> <li data-renderer-start-pos="1941" data-local-id="1ab0b7212faf">Design and implement a <strong data-renderer-mark="true">front-end architecture </strong>that strikes the right balance between simpli
