Robotics will have a massive positive impact on the world economy and global human productivity over the coming decade. At Foxglove, we're excited for this future, and we're building powerful open source and commercial tools to accelerate it.

We're an experienced team of independent thinkers, with a passion for creating high quality products. We're looking for self-motivated and fast-learning individuals to join our mission.

About The Role We’re looking for a Frontend Staff Software Engineer who gets excited about solving complex product problems and pushing web technologies to the limit.

At Foxglove, we’re building high-performance, deeply interactive tools for robotics and complex data visualization - far beyond typical frontend framework workflows. If you get excited about streaming massive datasets, pushing browser limits, and crafting workflows that surprise people with what’s actually possible in the frontend, this role might be for you.

Location We’re a small global company with team members primarily in the U.S. and Australia. We maintain Pacific Time hours and hire within ±4 hours of U.S. time zones to ensure effective collaboration.

This role is onsite in our San Francisco office, but we are open to remote for highly experienced candidates with prior experience at a leading robotics or autonomous vehicle company.

Key Responsibilities

• Architect and build high-performance, dynamic frontend applications that operate on large or real-time datasets
• Design and optimize complex UI workflows that feel snappy, even under heavy computational load
• Collaborate with product and design teams to create polished, intuitive user experiences for engineers and technical users
• Tackle performance bottlenecks across the stack: from JavaScript execution to data transfer and rendering pipelines
• Contribute to core build systems, framework architecture, and overall app reliability

What We're Looking For
