Frontend Software Engineer (m/f/d)

Overview

Stellenbeschreibung Where were you when the first Galileo navigation satellites began operating in orbit, or when the European probe Philae landed on a comet? We can tell you where we were: right in the middle of it. CGI supports the planning and execution of national and international space missions with reliable systems, innovative solutions, and highly skilled experts. Our focus includes, among other areas, the space ground segment, which forms the foundation of every space mission. In this role, you will contribute to modern web applications that support critical European space missions and enable real-world impact in areas such as navigation, Earth observation, and space operations. Join us and help shape and develop some of the most interesting space control systems in Europe. Apply today and become a Frontend Software Engineer (m/f/d) in the space domain at our locations in Bochum or Darmstadt.

Aufgaben

As part of a motivated team, you will take on a responsible role in the development and maintenance of software projects in the space domain, working closely with our clients. You will apply modern software engineering practices, with a focus on sustainable design and high software quality.

• Develop JavaScript-based web applications in the space domain used by clients such as DLR and ESA
• Analyze project-specific requirements and contribute to deriving suitable design and architecture decisions
• Support the design team in conceptualizing new features, taking UI/UX standards into account
• Collaborate closely with backend developers to ensure seamless interaction between frontend and backend systems

• Good knowledge of modern web development using JavaScript and TypeScript
• Experience working with different operating systems, especially Linux
• Open and structured approach to solving new problems
• Ability to work effectively in a team
