Role Overview

As a Frontend Developer, you will play a critical role in designing and developing our next-generation web interface for geospatial intelligence. You will create user-friendly, accessible, and scalable applications that empower analysts and decision-makers to interact with satellite data in real time. Your work will transform complex geospatial and temporal datasets into clear, interactive visual narratives.

Key Responsibilities

  • User Interface Development
  • Design and implement clean, responsive web interfaces that support seamless interaction with satellite and maritime data.
  • Build reusable UI components, layouts, and workflows that are both intuitive and visually appealing.
  • Ensure responsive behaviour across desktop, tablet, and mobile platforms.
  • Geospatial Visualization
  • Integrate and render dynamic geospatial layers and features using libraries such as Leaflet.js, Mapbox GL JS, or OpenLayers.
  • Build interactive mapping components (drawing tools, layer toggles, popups, time sliders) to support use cases like ship detection, ship path rendering, and anomaly mapping.
  • Enable real-time updates and temporal filtering of map-based data.
  • Frontend Architecture & Development
  • Develop and maintain web applications using React.js and Next.js for client-side and server-side rendering.
  • Write clean, modular, and maintainable code using HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript (ES6+), and TailwindCSS or similar utility-first frameworks.
  • Collaborate with backend and DevOps teams to integrate APIs, WebSockets, and authentication systems.
  • Performance & Accessibility
  • Optimize application performance through code splitting, lazy loading, and efficient state management (Redux, Zustand, or Context API).
  • Ensure compliance with WCAG accessibility guidelines to deliver inclusive UX for all users.
  • Perform cross-browser testing and responsive optimization to ensure a consistent experience.
  • Continuous Improvement & Innovation
  • Stay current with frontend development trends, tooling, and geospatial visualization techniques.
  • Evaluate and integrate new technologies to enhance the performance, UX, and capabilities of the web platform.
  • Participate in UI/UX design sessions and contribute creative input on user workflows and interactions.

Required Skills & Experience

  • Technical Proficiency
  • Strong hands-on experience with React.js, Next.js, HTML5, CSS3, and modern JavaScript (ES6+).
  • Experience working with geospatial libraries like Mapbox, Leaflet, or OpenLayers.
  • Proficiency in creating data-driven visualizations using libraries like D3.js, Chart.js, or Recharts.
  • Frontend Architecture
  • Experience building and deploying responsive, modular applications following modern component-based architecture.
  • Familiarity with RESTful APIs, GraphQL, and integration of backend services via JSON/WebSocket endpoints.
  • Knowledge of state management techniques and tools (Redux, Zustand, etc.).
  • Security & User Management
  • Experience implementing secure authentication workflows (OAuth2, JWT) and role-based access control (RBAC) in frontend applications.
  • Development Workflow & Tools
  • Proficiency in using Git, CI/CD pipelines, and modern development workflows.
  • Experience working in agile teams using tools like Jira, ClickUp, or Trello.
  • Soft Skills
  • Strong problem-solving skills, attention to detail, and passion for clean design.
  • Excellent communication and collaboration skills.
  • A proactive mindset and willingness to learn new tools and frameworks.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Familiarity with geospatial data standards (GeoJSON, WMS/WMTS, STAC).
  • Experience with testing frameworks for frontend test automation.
  • Exposure to real-time analytics or streaming data visualization.

This is an ideal role for frontend engineers who love creating elegant, interactive web experiences for complex, real-world data. You’ll help bring maritime intelligence to life — from ship tracking to environmental event detection — all on a powerful, map-centric SaaS platform.
