Senior Frontend Engineer (F/M/D)

The Opportunity

At Animore, our AI/ML, Robotics and Software teams build things that have to work in the real world. Our robots generate a constant stream of data, and the people who build, test and operate them need to see what's happening and act on it quickly. The interfaces that make that possible are where you come in.

As our Senior Frontend Engineer, you'll build the web applications our engineers, operators and customers use every day: tools to monitor and control robots, make sense of live and recorded data, and manage what's running in the field. When a screen is slow or confusing, people feel it straight away. Your job is to make sure it's fast, clear and reliable.

This isn't only about shipping screens. You'll make the key calls on our frontend architecture, set the standards for code quality and testing, and work directly with users to understand what they actually need. You'll often be the person who turns a rough idea from a robotics engineer into a tool the whole company relies on.

You won't be doing it alone. You'll work closely with our backend, robotics and AI/ML engineers, and you'll help shape how frontend work is done at Animore as the team grows.

Your Responsibilities

• Design, build and maintain the web applications our teams and customers use to work with our robots.
• Own our frontend architecture and make sure it scales as our products and team grow.
• Build interfaces that handle real-time and large volumes of data, and make them easy to understand.
• Work with backend engineers to design the APIs your applications depend on.
• Sit with operators, engineers and customers to understand their workflows, and turn what you learn into better tools.
• Set the standards for code quality, testing and performance, and review code to keep them high.
• Mentor other engineers and share what you know about frontend development.
• Spot technical debt and usability problems early and drive the fix.

Requirements

• 6+ years building web applications, with a strong focus on the frontend.
• Deep expertise in TypeScript and a modern framework such as React. You know the platform underneath it, too: the browser, the DOM and how to make things fast.
• You've designed and owned the frontend of a complex application, and you can explain the trade-offs behind your decisions.
• You've built interfaces that handle real-time updates, large datasets or complex visualizations without slowing down.
• You write tests as a matter of course and care about maintainable code, performance and accessibility.
• You take ownership, you're pragmatic, and you're happy working where not everything is defined yet.

Nice to have

• Experience with robotics, hardware, IoT or other products where software controls something physical
• Experience with WebSockets, WebRTC or other real-time technologies
• Experience with 3D or data visualization (for example Three.js, WebGL or D3)
• Startup or scale-up experience, where processes are still being built

Recruiting Process

Your recruiting partner for this role is Madhulika (she/her). You can expect a screening interview, two virtual technical interviews, and an onsite visit to our office in Munich including additional technical interviews and coffee chats with the team. The process will also include coding challenges.

Benefits

• Competitive compensation package
• Various employee subsidies and perks, including public transportation and wellness support
• Work with a world-class team in a flat hierarchy, with direct collaboration alongside the founders and engineering team
• Opportunity to make a real impact by working on cutting-edge robotics and AI systems
• Fast growth potential in a rapidly evolving company and industry
• International office environment with English as the official working language
