El Segundo, CaliforniaEngineering - Application Software/Full-time/On-siteABL Space Systems was founded in 2017 by veterans of SpaceX and Morgan Stanley to develop low-cost launch vehicles for the small satellite industry. More importantly, we're building a launch system we are truly proud of - no gimmicks or over-design, just reliable, rapidly deployable launches.

We're an ambitious team with big goals and, together, we're determined to prove that reaching space can be simple, efficient, and routine. When launch day arrives, we want you by our sideSenior Full Stack Software EngineerSoftware at ABL is a bit different than at large corporations. Our engineers don't write programs to process payroll; they build tools that control mission critical operations and data flows.

ABL's Senior?Full Stack Software?Engineers?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. Other products enable high reliability, real-time control of test and launch systems.

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 ABL business functions, such as robust and streamlined manufacturing processes, launch procedures, supply chain management, mission design and trajectory analysis, and other vital operationsRemain grounded by digging in with hardware, production, test and launch engineers to gain an understanding of launch vehicle processesOwn projects from initial concept through development, release, maintenance, and continual improvementQuickly explore and prototype solutions in a variety of domains, while also investing in a high-quality, maintainable base architecture and core feature-setDevelop and clearly communicate plans, roadmaps, designs, and architectures in the midst of complex, evolving constraintsIdentify and manage risks that may affect the successful delivery of featuresProvide technical leadership and thoughtful mentorship to peersProactively remove obstacles that stand in the way of engineering productivityWork closely with colleagues across the company to ensure that the software is meaningfully serving ABL's long-term goalsBasic Qualifications:Bachelor's degree in computer science, math, physics, engineering, or similar6+ years of professional experience building software for the webPreferred Skills and Experience:Experience as a technical leader in a team environmentExpertise across the web stack - interactive client-side applications, backend servers, databases, and infrastructure & toolingExperience developing reliable, maintainable, and performant web applicationsExperience with all forms of software testing required for high reliability applications, including unit testing, integration testing, and end-to-end testingExpertise in Typescript, React, or other modern JavaScript frameworksExpertise in Go and/or Python frameworks like Flask, Django, or similarExperience with relational databases such as PostgreSQLExperience with cloud-based infrastructure, Linux environments, and DevOps technologies and practicesDemonstrated success building and launching substantial software projectsHardware experience or willingness to have some hardware involvement. It is important for the Senior Full Stack Software Engineer to remain grounded to the systems their applications are serving.

Demonstrated ability to own software projects from architecture through shippingAble to quickly evaluate, learn, and apply new technologies as appropriateStrong focus on the end-user and business problems, understanding that custom-built software is simply one possible tool for solving problemsWhat We Look ForCritical thinking: ABL engineers understand the "why" behind all design decisions, operational events and test outcomes. Ability to deal with ambiguity: ABL engineers must be comfortable defining their own pathway to an objective. 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.
