Dalus is building a modern, AI-powered platform for systems engineers, the people who design rockets, satellites, defense systems, and EVs. We're replacing the clunky desktop tools the industry has been stuck on for decades. We're hiring a senior software engineer with a focus on Frontend. You'll own the product's interface end to end and set the bar for how it looks and feels. The core challenge: taking dense, complex engineering data and making it feel obvious to use. You: - Mid to senior, min 5-8 years of experience - Excellent UI/UX taste and strong React skills - Have built polished interfaces for real users - Comfortable owning frontend on a small team with a lot of autonomy - Startup experience preferred - Based in Germany or wider DACH; Munich preferable. German is a plus. Nice to have: experience with engineering, technical, or developer-facing tools. This is an early, high-ownership role. You'll work directly with the founders and shape the product from the ground up.

About Dalus

At Dalus, we're building AI-powered software to reimagine how complex hardware systems are designed — think rockets, satellites, EVs, aircraft, nuclear plants.

Right now, companies building these systems are held back by legacy tools that were never built for today’s fast-paced engineering teams. We’re changing that. Our platform makes hardware development faster, safer, and more scalable, even with smaller teams. We believe that designing atoms should feel more like working with bits — and that the next industrial renaissance needs better software.
