Job Description
About the Team:
We build rockets with advanced manufacturing techniques. Our Data Analysis Platform group within the Factory Platform team creates the software that transforms how engineers analyze test results, understand hardware performance, and accelerate development cycles.
About the Role:
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.
Day-to-day: 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.
The challenge: Building analytical tools that engineers actually want to use. Interactive visualizations that handle terabytes of telemetry, automated analysis systems that make reliable go/no-go decisions, and creating family data analysis workflows that help engineers understand hardware behavior across hundreds of test runs.
Stack:
- Backend: Python, Go, Postgres
- Frontend: React, TypeScript
- Infrastructure: Kubernetes, Terraform, DBT, Spark
- Data: Iceberg, DuckDB, Redshift
About You:
- 3+ years building and shipping production software
- Strong React and modern frontend development skills
- Experience with data visualization or analytical tools
- CS/Engineering degree or equivalent experience
Nice to haves but not required:
- Time-series data experience, scientific visualization background, or aerospace/automotive testing domain knowledge.
