Software Engineer - Frontend [Product-focused]

About EarthSense Labs

At EarthSense Labs, our mission is to deliver asset-level geospatial intelligence at a planetary scale. We build GeoTwin 4D, a proprietary digital twin platform that combines  science-Informed AI with physical models to continuously map, monitor and forecast risks to critical infrastructure.

We are a small, mission-aligned engineering team focused on solving hard problems and building robust, reliable systems. We value ownership, speed, and practical engineering over process-heavy workflows.

Product-Focused Frontend Engineering

Frontend engineering at EarthSense focuses on building robust, data-driven interfaces for geospatial and AI-powered systems. Our frontend engineers work with APIs, streaming data, and model outputs to ensure accurate state management, performant visualizations, and reliable user workflows.

The goal is to ship complete, end-to-end product features that deliver real value - not isolated screens. We look for frontend engineers who think in terms of outcomes, iterate quickly, and care deeply about how the entire system behaves in real-world use.
