Job description

We’re building a next-generation SaaS product for wind turbine monitoring, using an AI engine that already analyzes sensor data from more than 25,000 wind turbines daily., We are looking for a Frontend Engineer to help us build software for technical expert users working with complex operational data. This is not a generic web app role. Our users rely on our product to monitor turbine behavior, investigate anomalies, understand patterns in data, and make decisions efficiently. That means the frontend is central to the value of the product.

We are especially interested in candidates who are strong in interaction design and workflow thinking: people who enjoy diving into a complex domain, collaborating closely with expert users, and shaping interfaces that make dense technical information clear, efficient, and trustworthy., As a Frontend Engineer on our team, you will help design and build the core product experience for a highly focused SaaS application used in wind turbine monitoring and analysis.

You will work on problems such as:

  • designing efficient workflows for expert users investigating turbine behavior
  • turning complex technical requirements into clear and intuitive interfaces
  • helping users work confidently with large amounts of operational and analytical data
  • balancing depth, flexibility, and usability in a data-dense product
  • shaping how frontend architecture and product design support long-term product quality

This role is a strong fit for someone who sees frontend engineering as more than implementing screens. We are looking for someone who enjoys understanding the underlying domain, asking good questions, and contributing to how the product should work

You’ll be part of a dedicated product-focused development team reporting directly to the VP of Engineering.

What you’ll do

  • Build and refine frontend features in our wind turbine monitoring platform
  • Collaborate closely with product, design, and domain experts to understand user needs and workflows
  • Design and implement interfaces for technical users working with complex data
  • Help create efficient, high-signal workflows for investigation, analysis, and decision-making
  • Translate complex domain concepts into software that feels clear and reliable
  • Contribute to the evolution of our frontend architecture in Elm
  • Improve the usability, consistency, and maintainability of the product over time
  • Take part in product discussions and help shape solutions, not just implementations

Requirements

Do you have experience in Usability?, We don’t expect every candidate to match every point below, but strong candidates will identify with many of them., * Strong interest in interaction design, workflow design, and product usability

  • Ability to work through complex or ambiguous problems in collaboration with others
  • Curiosity about technical domains and willingness to learn how expert users think and work
  • Good judgment around structuring information and interactions in complex interfaces
  • Ability to build software that is robust, clear, and maintainable, * Experience building data-rich, analytical, or operational SaaS products
  • Experience working on tools for expert users rather than broad consumer audiences
  • Experience designing or building complex workflows in technical domains
  • Experience with time-series data, monitoring tools, dashboards, or similar applications
  • Experience with Elm
  • Experience with functional programming or strongly typed systems, You may be a great fit if you:
  • enjoy going deep into a domain rather than staying at the surface
  • like working closely with users or domain experts to understand real problems
  • care about designing workflows that are efficient and intuitive for expert users
  • are comfortable with complexity and know how to reduce it without oversimplifying
  • take pride in building software that feels thoughtful, reliable, and well-crafted
  • are excited by the idea of applying frontend engineering to meaningful problems in renewable energy
  • comfortable working in a professional environment where English is the working language (both spoken and written).

Our tech approach

Our frontend is built in Elm, and we value approaches that support reliability, maintainability, and clarity. Prior Elm experience is welcome, but it is not a strict requirement. If you have a strong frontend background and are motivated to learn, we would be happy to talk.

We care more about your ability to reason about interfaces, workflows, and software quality than about checking every technology box.

Benefits & conditions

  • Modern office in Vejle, a 2-minute walk from the train station
  • Pension scheme, 16 weeks paid parental leave, 6 weeks holiday
  • Catered lunch coming in 5 days a week
  • An active office environment

Why join SkySpecs?

At SkySpecs, you’ll work on software that supports the renewable energy transition in a direct and practical way. You’ll join a team building tools for real technical users solving real operational problems. And you’ll have the opportunity to shape a product where frontend engineering, interaction design, and domain understanding all matter deeply.

If you’re excited by expert-facing software, complex data, thoughtful interaction design, and the chance to build in a domain with real-world impact, we’d love to hear from you.

About the company

Our frontend is built in Elm. If you already know Elm, that’s great. If not, we’d still love to hear from you if you are excited by thoughtful frontend engineering and interested in working in a strongly typed functional environment.
