Work In Tech

About Us:

Commit is working with a confidential partner on this role. Applicants proceeding to the next stage will receive further information about the employer and recruiting process.

About the Role:

A Full Stack Software Engineer build applications and tools that synthesize diverse streams of inputs — orbital parameters, flight sensor data, manufacturing workflows, supply chain lead times, and financial projections, to name a few. This software forms a rock-solid technological foundation for world-class launch vehicle engineering and production. In this role, the engineer will facilitate the full end-to-end spectrum of tasks involved in building and launching rockets.

Responsibilities:

• Build effective, user-friendly web applications that power core business functions, such as robust and streamlined manufacturing processes, launch procedures, supply chain management, mission design and trajectory analysis, and other vital operations
• Remain grounded by digging in with hardware, production, test and launch engineers to gain an understanding of launch vehicle processes
• Own projects from initial concept through development, release, maintenance, and continual improvement
• Quickly explore and prototype solutions in a variety of domains, while also investing in a high-quality, maintainable base architecture and core feature-set
• Identify and clearly communicate risks that may affect the successful delivery of features
• Work closely with colleagues across the company to ensure that the software is meaningfully serving our long-term goals

Basic Qualifications:

• Bachelor's degree in computer science, math, physics, engineering, or similar
• 3+ years of professional experience building software for the web

Preferred Skills:

• Experience across the web stack — interactive client-side applications, backend servers, and databases
• Experience developing reliable, maintainable, and performant web applications
• Expertise in React.js or other modern JavaScript frameworks
• Expertise in Python frameworks like Flask, Django, or similar backend frameworks
• Experience with relational databases such as PostgreSQL
• Experience with cloud-based infrastructure, Linux environments, and DevOps technologies and practices
• Demonstrated success building and launching substantial software projects
• Hardware experience or willingness to have some hardware involvement. It is important for the Full Stack Software Engineer to remain grounded to the systems their applications are serving
• Able to quickly evaluate, learn, and apply new technologies as appropriate
• Strong focus on the end-user and the actual business problems

What We Look For:

1. Critical thinking: Understand the ""why"" behind all design decisions, operational events and test outcomes.
2. Ability to deal with ambiguity: there is no roadmap and engineers must be comfortable defining their own pathway to an objective.
3. End-to-end ownership: projects are delivered fully complete and ready for flight; there is no one to pick up the slack of partially complete work.
