About the Team

We’re a fast-moving team of engineers building the Remote Control system that powers teleoperation and fleet management for autonomous cars and delivery robots. Our tools enable operators to assist vehicles in complex urban environments via real-time video, map-based navigation, and custom interfaces optimized for low-latency decision-making. We care about performance, reliability, and thoughtful UX design — all in service of safe and scalable autonomy operations.

About the Role

We’re looking for a Senior Frontend Engineer to help us push the boundaries of what real-time web interfaces can do. You’ll be responsible for developing the operator-facing frontend of our Remote Control stack - the live command center that humans use to assist cars and robots in the wild.

This is a hands-on, high-impact role where your work directly shapes how autonomy operates at scale.

What You'll Do

  • Build and maintain low-latency, real-time interfaces for controlling autonomous cars and robots
  • Architect robust React applications that integrate live video feeds, real-time maps, and interactive controls for navigation and remote assistance
  • Optimize for operator efficiency: keyboard workflows, high-res layouts, fast feedback loops
  • Collaborate with backend, robotics, and UX teams to shape APIs and flows for reliability under edge conditions
  • Ship fast, iterate often, and deliver responsive, intuitive tools that support autonomous vehicle operations

What You'll Need

  • Strong React and TypeScript skills — proven track record building fast, maintainable apps
  • Real-time mindset — experience working with websockets, live data, or streaming video is a plus
  • UI intuition — you care about interface design and performance, and you know how to debug slow or janky UIs
  • System thinking — you know how frontend fits into the bigger picture, and you write code that holds up under load

Nice to Have

  • Experience with WebRTC, low-latency video, or socket-based architectures
  • Familiarity with telemetry, maps, or robotics/vehicle systems
  • Basic Python or Go skills for debugging backend issues

Candidates are required to be authorized to work in the U.S. The employer is not offering relocation sponsorship, and remote work options are not available.
