We are fully indexed on the success of every user, the interfaces you ship support live operations.\nYou'd join the product development team as a front-end specialist, working closely with product design and engineering. You take an operational problem, explore it, come back with proposals, and iterate. Delivering a clear, fast and dependable user experience is critical to the person using it.\nWhat this looks like in practice:\nOwn front-end delivery on Prevail, our operational planning platform, from interaction design through production\n\nBuild interfaces for real geospatial problems: interactive maps, multiple data layers, large datasets, and time-sensitive workflows well beyond a typical CRUD application\n\nWork with product and design early, turning operational needs into clear flows and production-ready experiences\n\nRaise the front-end quality bar across the team by reviewing and improving work from engineers with different specialities, including AI-assisted code\n\nMake thoughtful trade-offs between speed and durability, especially when a high-stakes demo or deployment creates a short deadline\n\nHelp create reusable patterns that make the product more coherent as the team and surface area grow\n\nWho We're Looking For\nWe filter hardest on mission drive, low ego, attention to detail, and resilience under pressure. We want someone who cares about front-end engineering as a craft and can still move quickly when the problem is ambiguous.\nMust-have:\nStrong production experience with React and TypeScript, with front-end engineering as a core part of your craft\n\nA track record of owning complex interfaces from problem definition through release and iteration\n\nStrong product and design judgement: you notice weak hierarchy, inconsistent interactions, and confusing states before a specification points them out\n\nPragmatism and low ego: you can improve rough work from other engineers without turning every implementation choice into a philosophical debate\n\nComfort with ambiguity and changing priorities, while keeping the quality of what ships high\n\nEU or UK citizenship (contractual requirement tied to our defence contracts)\n\nNice to have:\nExperience with mapping, cartographic, GIS, or other geospatial applications\n\nFront-end performance work involving large or real-time datasets\n\nExperience building offline-capable or resource-constrained web applications\n\nExperience creating or scaling a design system\n\nPrior work in defence, government, or dual-use technology\n\nWhat's In It For You\nA top 0.1% European compensation package, including base salary and equity\n\nParis or London based\n\nOwnership of a product surface used in real operational environments\n\nDirect collaboration with product design and engineering, with room to shape front-end standards as the team grows\n\nThe Process\nTalent screening: 30 min, online. We cover your background, motivations, and what you want to own next.\n\nFront-end interview: 60 min, online. We assess React and TypeScript fundamentals, product judgement, and how you reason through an unfamiliar interface problem.\n\nOnsite in Paris: half day. You see the product, present a project you are proud of, and work through a front-end design and re-engineering exercise based on a realistic product problem.\n\nRoundtable: hiring committee reviews the full set of evidence and makes the final decision.","description_format":"text","description_chars":3451,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":["Equity"],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Military","C4ISR"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-09-08T18:39:42Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":48,"band":"ok","label":"Likely open","p_open":1,"p_active":0.646,"p_room":0.75,"age_days":49,"expected_fill_days":57,"reasons":["conf:3","win:late"],"computed_at":"2026-10-27T05:46:45Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/comand-ai-front-end-engineer","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/comand-ai-front-end-engineer.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-27T19:41:26Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":10410,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-28T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":63532},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=63532"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fcomand-ai-front-end-engineer"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fcomand-ai-front-end-engineer"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fcomand-ai-front-end-engineer"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/comand-ai-front-end-engineer\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fcomand-ai-front-end-engineer"}]}
