This is a full stack role with an emphasis on both frontend and backend. Our full stack web applications are operational, user facing products, that needs to be highly reliable. We want someone who wants to be close to their users and iterate with them directly. This role develops and maintains a full-stack application suite that York's test organization runs on. One is our test execution platform and the entry point for all testing across the organization, used by engineers on the production floor to run mission critical tests on real spacecraft before they ship. Another platform is the test artifact management and visualization application for our system of recording test data, capturing results from CI/CD and the production floor and turning them into the dashboards, metrics, and reports that internal teams and customers depend on. The other platform is our full-stack UI/UX for fault injection, simulation control, and visualization of our spacecraft simulation. Together they cover the full arc of a test: run it, see it, and prove what happened. We are looking for an experienced engineer to be a key contributor on these platforms, with the opportunity to grow into broader ownership over time. Responsibilities * Develop and extend backend services for mission critical test execution, including data modeling and query optimization * Build and maintain user facing interfaces, including real time views into running tests * Integrate products with lab, ground, and test infrastructure owned by other teams across the company * Work directly with test engineers on the floor to gather feedback, understand how tests actually get run, and iterate on the platform based on what you learn * Translate high level designs and requirements into high quality, production ready code across the stack * Develop automated tests for our products and the systems it interfaces with * Support test like you fly, test driven development for spacecraft flight software, ground software, and space vehicle integration * Write and execute test plans, procedures, and reports in collaboration with other York developers * Triage and fix bugs across a TypeScript monorepo: a Node (Hono) API server with Postgres persistence, a React frontend, and a Kafka/NATS ingest path. * Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines * Troubleshoot and debug full stack products and its supporting tools and infrastructure * Provide technical direction to more junior engineers, and create documentation and user guides * Communicate complex technical topics to non-technical audiences ## Related Videos - [How a Small Team Shrank a Microsoft Monorepo by 94%](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1236-how-a-small-team-shrank-a-microsoft-monorepo-by-94) - [Docker network without Docker](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1418-docker-network-without-docker) - [Rendering Design Software in the Browser at Penpot](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1353-rendering-design-software-in-the-browser-at-penpot) - [Navigating the Corporate Jungle: Life as a Developer in a large Company](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/621-navigating-the-corporate-jungle-life-as-a-developer-in-a-large-company) - [TresJS a new declarative ThreeJS as Vue components](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/543-tresjs-a-new-declarative-threejs-as-vue-components) - [Docker exec without Docker](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1094-docker-exec-without-docker) ## Related Articles - [Highest Paying Tech Companies for Developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/220-highest-paying-tech-companies-for-developers) - [Dev Digest 121 - AI goes offline](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/456-dev-digest-121-ai-goes-offline) - [Dev Digest 120 - Apple and peers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/455-dev-digest-120-apple-and-peers) - [Is Software Engineering Over-Saturated?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/418-is-software-engineering-over-saturated) - [Best Countries for Software Engineers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/267-best-countries-for-software-engineers) - [The Best X (Twitter) Accounts for Developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/294-the-best-x-twitter-accounts-for-developers)
