AirNxt is building the next generation of AI-powered MRO software to transform aviation maintenance, operations, and management. Our platform is designed to be intuitive, scalable, and high-performance, simplifying complex workflows and enhancing efficiency across the aviation industry.
As we scale, we’re looking for passionate professionals who thrive in agile environments and are eager to solve real-world aviation challenges using cutting-edge technology and innovative solutions. If that sounds like you, we’d love to hear from you!
Your Impact (Why This Role Matters – Especially to You)
This isn't just another frontend role. You'll be a foundational pillar of our engineering team.
Shape the Future: You will directly influence the product's DNA, architecting critical user-facing systems from an early stage.
Build for Scale & Intelligence: Tackle the unique challenges of creating a high-performance, data-intensive ERP with embedded AI capabilities.
Lead & Define: Establish frontend best practices, mentor future hires, and champion technical excellence that resonates across AirNxt.
Solve Real Problems: Your work will transform how aviation professionals operate, making their complex jobs simpler and more efficient.
What You’ll Do (Key Responsibilities – Beyond Just Code)
Architectural Ownership: Lead the design and evolution of a highly scalable, performant, and responsive frontend architecture using React and TypeScript. Make critical decisions on state management, component libraries, and testing strategies.
Pioneer AI Interfaces: Play a key role in designing and implementing our innovative AI-powered agentic interfaces, ensuring they are intuitive and seamlessly integrated.
Hands-On Excellence: Build, test, and deploy complex, pixel-perfect UI components and features.
Full Lifecycle Leadership: Own end-to-end frontend feature delivery – from interpreting complex requirements and UX/UI designs to robust production deployment and beyond.
Performance & Quality Evangelist: Obsess over web application performance, responsiveness, accessibility (WCAG), and reliability. Implement and advocate for rigorous testing.
Mentor & Elevate: Guide and mentor other frontend engineers (as the team grows), fostering a culture of collaboration, learning, and high standards. Your code reviews will be learning opportunities.
Strategic Collaboration: Partner closely with Product, Design, Backend, and AI teams to ensure cohesive and impactful product development.
Drive Best Practices: Define, document, and enforce frontend engineering best practices, coding standards, and modern architectural patterns.
Frontend DevOps: Contribute to and refine CI/CD pipelines, build optimizations, and other frontend-specific operational practices.
Problem Solver: Diagnose and resolve the most challenging frontend issues in production, continuously improving UI stability and user delight.
What You MUST Bring
Deep Expertise (Guideline: 5+ years): Extensive, demonstrable experience in building and scaling complex, data-intensive web applications. Your track record speaks louder than years.
React & TypeScript Mastery: Expert-level proficiency in React.js and TypeScript, with a profound understanding of their ecosystems, advanced patterns (e.g., Hooks, Context API, Render Props), performance optimizations, and common pitfalls.
Shipped & Scaled Products: You haven’t just worked on features; you’ve shipped entire products or substantial product areas and seen them through growth and iteration.
Complex State Management Authority: Deep experience with sophisticated state management solutions (e.g., Redux, Zustand, XState) in large-scale applications.
Testing & QA Fanatic: A strong belief in and practice of comprehensive frontend testing (unit, integration, E2E). Familiarity with Jest, React Testing Library, Cypress, or similar.
Exceptional Communicator & Collaborator: Ability to articulate complex technical ideas to diverse audiences and work effectively within a fast-paced, multidisciplinary team.
Pragmatic & Impact-Oriented: You balance idealism with pragmatism, focusing on delivering value quickly while building for the long term.
What Makes You Stand Out (Bonus Points that Excite Us)
Evidence of having designed and led the frontend architecture for significant, successful web applications. You can articulate your architectural choices and their trade-offs clearly.
Direct experience building user interfaces for AI-driven applications or agentic systems.
Background in aviation, MRO, ERP, logistics, or other complex B2B/enterprise SaaS.
Familiarity with Google Cloud Platform (GCP) and serverless architectures.
Working previously with StoryBook and Figma Dev mode.
Understanding of GraphQL and its implications for frontend development.
Experience with high-compliance environments (e.g., data security, regulatory adherence).
Contributions to open-source projects or strong public presence (e.g., tech talks, articles).
Our Stack & Engineering Environment
Frontend: React, TypeScript, Advanced State Management (e.g., Redux, Zustand), Modern CSS.
Backend: Node.js/TS, Microservices, Graph-first, GCP, Linkerd, Terraform.
AI: LangGraph planned for agent orchestration.
Challenges We Embrace: Real-time UI updates, complex state synchronization across distributed systems, exceptional client-side performance for data-heavy views, robust user experience across diverse modules, and building truly intelligent interfaces.
Culture: We move fast, value precision, collaborate intensely, and believe in empowered ownership. Builders thrive here.
Who You Are (Our Cultural DNA – Non-Negotiable)
Builder First: You have an insatiable urge to create, improve, and innovate.
Owner Mentality: You take initiative, see things through, and don’t wait for tickets – you find gaps and build bridges. You’re accountable.
Empathy & Integrity: You design for the user, support your teammates, and always operate with honesty and transparency.
Grit & Resilience: You view challenges as opportunities and tackle hard problems with tenacity.
High-Cognition, Low-Ego: You're a quick learner, a critical thinker, and you value the best idea, regardless of its source.
Clarity & Precision: You sweat the right details and write code that’s clear today and adaptable tomorrow.
Your Success in 90 Days (And Beyond)
Day 30: Fully integrated into the team and codebase; actively contributing high-quality code to core MVP features; understanding our frontend architecture deeply.
Day 60: Leading the implementation of a significant new frontend feature or architectural improvement; providing impactful code reviews and mentorship.
Day 90: Recognized as a go-to frontend authority; demonstrably improved frontend performance, testability, or developer experience; proactively identifying and proposing solutions for future frontend challenges, especially around AI integration.
Beyond: Shaping the long-term frontend roadmap, potentially growing a frontend team, and leaving your mark on the aviation industry.
