Role
Who you are
- Experience developing complex products for engineers or time-series visualization tools
- A love of developing beautiful, powerful, and intuitive interactions and an attention to detail with every pixel
- The drive to help clarify the unknown and work on shaping projects on the roadmap. We want people who love to have opinions on what and why we’re building
- Excitement to be a foundational member of the early team building software tools to amplify the capabilities of remarkable hardware engineering teams
- Interest in occasionally traveling to spend time with end-users on-site (e.g. rocket test stands, spacecraft clean rooms, automated manufacturing facilities)

- Innovate at the cutting edge of front-end technology. Build complex visualizations, delightful interactions, and powerful editor-like experiences
- Design and build scalable APIs using tRPC to power a low-friction user experience while fetching and transforming massive volumes of data
- Help grow the team by sourcing, interviewing, and onboarding new engineers
Our take
Whilst leading workflow platforms such as Monday and Basecamp are designed for general use, teams in more specific industries may benefit from experiences designed for their sector. Nominal has built a data analysis platform and workflow system tailored to the needs of engineering teams managing complex machines in industries such as aerospace and defense.
Nominal’s platform caters to engineering teams who develop, validate and monitor hardware, enabling them to build observability and control over mission-critical machines. It automates routine tasks and streamlines collaboration between team members, ensuring that all stages of a machine’s development have rigorous oversight.
Having only come out of stealth in 2024, Nominal’s path to market has been accelerated by several rounds of funding. This will be used to expand operations and business reach as it attempts to cut into a competitive market. With its target audience pitch well articulated, the company has become the fastest-growing software platform in hardware development with 6X customer growth across aerospace, defense, energy, robotics and manufacturing.
