Senior Frontend Engineer (m/f/d) Industrial IoT

Join to apply for the Senior Frontend Engineer (m/f/d) Industrial IoT role at KINEXON

ABOUT THE TEAM

We are an international team building KINEXON OS, the operating system that optimizes visibility and transparency of industrial moving assets. Our platform captures real-time location data and provides dynamic workflows, delivering actionable insights for production and logistics. KINEXON OS is open, flexible, and scalable, enabling full visibility into supply chains and dynamic tracking of assets for swift operational decision-making. It aggregates position and identification data from various sources and enriches it with contextual information from third-party IT/OT systems such as ERP, MES, and WMS.

Join us to shape the backbone of a platform that powers digital transformation in manufacturing and logistics worldwide. As a Senior Frontend Engineer, you will be at the forefront of this mission, translating vast streams of live data into an intuitive, high-performance ecosystem of UI applications that our users rely on to steer their daily operations.

YOUR IMPACT

• Own the Core UI & Ecosystem: you will drive the technical evolution of our main application interface while also overseeing a diverse suite of specialized extensions, including our Historical Replayer, ePaper Layout Designer, and Mobile Companion App.
• Bridge Real-Time & Automation: you'll build a dual-purpose interface, delivering live production insights while enabling users to configure complex automations and processes that unlock a vast array of industrial use cases.
• Master Real-Time Visualization: you will optimize our core canvas-based map, developing efficient algorithms to render thousands of moving objects in real-time without compromising performance.
• Build for Extensibility: you will own and evolve our custom extension framework, ensuring that specialized apps (like the Mobile Companion or ePaper Designer) can seamlessly plug into the core platform while reusing a shared library of components.
• Performance First: as we feed vast amounts of live data into the UI, you will ensure our application remains responsive, tackling bottlenecks in rendering and data handling across both desktop and mobile contexts.
• Bridge the Stack: while your focus is frontend, you will collaborate closely with backend developers to design APIs that support high-performance frontend requirements.

YOUR SKILLS

• Frontend Mastery: you have deep experience building complex Single Page Applications (SPAs) with Angular, Type Script, and RxJS.
• Visualization Expertise: you have strong skills in working with HTML5 Canvas or similar technologies for rendering data-heavy visualizations efficiently.
• Platform & Architecture Thinking: you can design scalable UI systems that serve multiple apps. Experience with micro-frontend architectures is a strong plus.
• Quality & Design Systems: you bring a quality-first mindset with hands on experience in unit/integration testing and maintaining shared UI component libraries.
• Delivery Excellence: you are comfortable optimizing frontend bundles for performance and understand the full delivery lifecycle, from debugging build pipelines (Webpack/Vite) to deploying containerized apps with Docker and CI/CD pipelines.
• Fullstack Mindset: you ideally have fullstack experience or are at least comfortable reading backend code and understand how API design impacts frontend performance.
• Product & Design Fluency: you are comfortable using tools like Figma to build quick prototypes, validate concepts, and translate design language into technical reality.
• Communication: you communicate clearly in English and enjoy collaborating with product managers and fellow engineers to solve tough technical problems.
