Frontend Developer

Geospatial Front-End Developer Location: Orlando, Florida Sector: Earth Observation, Space, Geospatial Experience: Mid-Senior Level (3/4+ years experience) NewSpace Technical are working with an exciting NewSpace company that is building a modern geospatial platform to support next-generation satellite data products. Backed by strong technical leadership and a clear mission, this company is focused on making complex spatial data easier to explore, analyze, and act on. This is an opportunity to join early, have real ownership, and help shape a product that sits at the intersection of space, software, and data. The Opportunity Our client is developing a web-based platform for discovering, visualizing, and analyzing large-scale spatiotemporal datasets derived from satellite and airborne sensors. The goal is to turn massive volumes of Earth observation data into intuitive, interactive tools that users can work with directly in the browser. As a Geospatial Front-End Engineer, you’ll focus on building high-performance user interfaces using React and TypeScript, enabling users to explore complex geospatial data such as: 3D point cloud data rendered in-browser using WebGL Raster imagery (e.g. GeoTIFFs) visualized via modern web mapping frameworks Vector spatial data for overlays, annotations, and region-based analysis Spatial reference systems and map projections to align and compare datasets You’ll help solve one of the core challenges in EO software: making large, high-dimensional spatial datasets feel fast, usable, and intuitive for end users. What You’ll Be Doing Building and maintaining modern front-end applications with React and TypeScript Developing reusable, well-structured UI components with performance in mind Turning product requirements and design concepts into intuitive user experiences Integrating front-end features with backend APIs and asynchronous data pipelines Contributing to UI architecture, performance optimisation, and shared component libraries Working closely with product, design, and engineering in a fast-moving startup environment What They’re Looking For Required 4+ years of experience building web applications with React and TypeScript Strong understanding of component-based architecture, state management, and async data handling Experience working within larger codebases and improving existing systems Solid knowledge of modern JavaScript, HTML, and CSS Experience integrating front-end applications with backend services and APIs Familiarity with modern front-end tooling, testing, and build systems Nice to Have Experience with web mapping libraries (Mapbox GL JS or similar) Exposure to WebGL or browser-based 3D rendering Experience with performance tuning in React Work on design systems or reusable UI libraries Good UI/UX instincts and experience collaborating with designers Why This Role Stands Out Join a NewSpace EO startup where your work has visible, real-world impact High ownership and influence over product and technical direction Work on cutting-edge Earth observation and geospatial technology Collaborate with a small, highly technical team that values quality and clarity Strong opportunities for growth as the company scales If you’re a front-end engineer excited by space, geospatial data, and early-stage environments, this is a rare chance to work on a genuinely meaningful product.
