Software Engineer II - Data Analysis Platform

About the position

You'll build the analytical backbone for rocket development - interactive data exploration tools, automated test analysis systems, and decision-making engines that turn raw telemetry into actionable engineering insights. The goal is turning weeks of manual data review into automated go/no-go decisions. You'll join our 8-person Factory Platform team within the 40-person Terrestrial Software organization. Direct collaboration with GNC engineers, test engineers, and hardware development teams.

Responsibilities

• Build interactive React applications for engineers to explore time-series data, compare test families, and identify performance trends.
• Work directly with GNC (Guidance, Navigation, Control) engineers to create specialized analysis tools for flight dynamics and control system validation.
• Implement automated decision algorithms that flag anomalies, generate test reports, and accelerate our test cadence from days to hours.
• Design APIs that surface insights from our existing data platform to power analysis workflows.

Requirements

• 3+ years shipping production software
• Strong React and modern frontend patterns
• Experience with data analysis tools or scientific computing
• CS/Engineering degree or equivalent depth

Nice-to-haves

• Time-series data experience
• Scientific visualization background
• Aerospace/automotive testing domain knowledge
