UI Engineer

Key Responsibilities

• Design and implement WebGL-based 3D visualizations for real-time autonomous vehicle coordination and mission planning interfaces
• Build high-performance data visualization systems using Deck.gl to render millions of sensor data points, telemetry streams, and geospatial information
• Create gaming-inspired UI interactions including RTS-style vehicle selection, minimap systems, context-sensitive controls, and real-time asset tracking displays
• Optimize rendering performance for browser-based applications handling continuous streams of sensor data, video feeds, and telemetry from autonomous vehicle fleets
• Implement WebAssembly modules for performance-critical calculations and real-time data processing in gaming-style interfaces
• Develop interactive 2D/3D mapping systems with real-time overlays for mission planning, route visualization, and operational area displays
• Build responsive, touch-capable interfaces that function across desktop and tablet form factors for field deployment scenarios
• Create data visualization pipelines that transform raw autonomous system telemetry into actionable operator insights and mission-critical displays
• Implement custom WebGL shaders for specialized military sensor data visualization and real-time geographic information display
• Collaborate with backend engineers to optimize data streaming protocols and minimize latency for real-time command and control operations
• Ensure interface performance and reliability through comprehensive testing frameworks and automated performance monitoring
