Senior Full-Stack Software Engineer

The role

Build the production web app for EDEN, a generative site design tool, replacing the current research prototype. The work covers the browser interface, maps and 3D views, backend APIs and a job system for long-running searches, and AI agent integration.

What you will do

• Build the web app for choosing a site, writing a brief, following a live search and exploring results.
• Render terrain, vegetation, water and design geometry in maps and 3D in the browser.
• Design the APIs, services and job system that run long, compute-heavy searches for many clients at once.
• Build backend endpoints to ingest, query and serve geospatial and temporal data.
• Turn procedural design graphs into versioned, reusable modules with computational designers.
• Build the parts that call language models, including handling cost, latency, failures and refusals.
• Set up authentication, deployment, monitoring, testing and CI.
• Make complex technical output, such as search trees, scored designs and reports, clear to clients.

Required qualifications

• 6+ years building and shipping web products, owning substantial parts end to end.
• Strong Python on the backend, for example FastAPI or Django.
• TypeScript with a modern front-end framework such as Vue.
• Experience with long-running or compute-heavy work: job queues, background workers, progress streaming and failure handling.
• Strong data modeling and SQL, ideally Postgres, and experience with object storage.
• Cloud deployment, containers and CI.
• Care for interface design and turning technical results into something a client understands.
• Clear writing and communication with designers, scientists and engineers.

Nice to have

• Web mapping and 3D, such as deck.gl, MapLibre, Mapbox, Cesium or Three.js.
• Geospatial data tools such as GDAL, rasterio, shapely or PostGIS.
• Building products on large language model APIs, including streaming, tool use and cost control.
• Orchestrating scientific or simulation workloads, including on GPUs or render farms.
• Durable job queues and workflow engines, for example Temporal, Celery or a Postgres-backed queue.
• Integrations with design tools such as Rhino, Houdini or GIS software.
• An interest in ecology, climate or environmental design.
