Frontend Engineer (React TypeScript)

At Gauss Robotics we make robotics engineering simple affordable and accessible giving manufacturers a shortcut to robotics by automating engineering workflows with AI.

With we are building the core interface that connects agentic AI to real robotic systems and simulation environments. Users can design configure and deploy robotic applications through natural language real-time system feedback and interactive 3D visualization.

We are looking for a Frontend Engineer to take ownership of this system and help shape the future of AI-driven robotics engineering.

This is a full-time position in Braunschweig (hybrid possible).

Tasks

• Own and evolve the frontend architecture built with React and TypeScript
• Design scalable UI structures and enforce clean modular boundaries in a growing codebase
• Integrate with modern authentication flows (OAuth aws cognito JWT)
• Implement real-time communication using WebSockets and Server-Sent Events (SSE) for streaming AI insights and robotics state updates
• Integrate deeply with backend services via REST APIs (Axios) streaming endpoints and asynchronous workflows
• Develop high-performance 3D visualization components using and Meshcat for robotics simulation and system feedback
• Optimize rendering performance and responsiveness in real-time and 3D-heavy contexts
• Expand and maintain a reusable UI system using Material-UI (Joy) and Tailwind CSS
• Contribute to frontend testing strategy (unit end-to-end) and enforce high code quality (ESLint Prettier)
• Collaborate with backend AI and robotics engineers on architectural decisions and product direction
• Continuously identify and improve technical weaknesses in the frontend stack

This role is about building and owning a system with the right initiative and performance this role can grow into a Frontend Lead / Head of Frontend position.

Requirements

Required Qualifications & Skills

• Professional experience building frontend systems with React and TypeScript (typically 3 years)
• Strong understanding of frontend architecture and modular state management
• Experience with real-time systems (WebSockets SSE streaming updates)

• Familiarity with authentication and RBAC systems
• Experience integrating REST APIs and handling complex asynchronous flows
• Preference for clean abstractions maintainability and long-term code health
• Comfortable working in an evolving startup environment with impactful responsibility
• Good communication skills in English

Nice to Have

• Experience with Meshcat or other 3D/WebGL technologies
• Experience building AI-powered or developer-centric applications
• Experience contributing to or maintaining a UI design system
• Interest in robotics simulation and hardware-integrated systemsExperience mentoring others or influencing frontend architecture

Benefits

• Real Ownership & Impact Youll own a core subsystem of a deep-tech product
• Technical Depth Work on real-time AI-integrated and 3D visualization challenges
• Continuous Learning Access to professional learning platforms and technical courses
• Choose Your Setup Select your preferred device and operating system
• Flexible Work Model Flexible working hours and hybrid work options
• Mobility Support Jobrad/bike leasing or public transportation benefits
• Health & Wellbeing Flexible gym membership or capital-building benefits; fresh fruit and soft drinks in the officeCompetitive Salary Aligned with experience and responsibility

We are in a high-growth product phase and need engineers who want ownership impact and technical challenge.
