Senior Frontend Developer (ROS 2 / Gazebo Integration for Python/Django LMS)

Category: Design/Creative

Apply Now

Job Description

Design and build rich browser-based robotics learning experiences: live ROS 2 topic
visualization, Gazebo simulation interaction, and seamless UI integration into a Django-backed
LMS.

Job Responsibilities

Architect React/TypeScript micro frontends embedding ROS 2 data (rosbridge, WebSockets,
REST).
Build reusable UI components: topic browsers, TF tree, telemetry charts, 3D robot & world
viewers (Three.js / ROS3D / WebGL).
Integrate Gazebo/Ignition simulation controls (start/stop, world selection, parameter tweaks)
via bridge APIs.
Implement secure session orchestration for per-user sandboxed containers (token/JWT
handling, iframe isolation).
Optimize real-time data flows (throttling, compression, diff updates, WebSocket reconnection
logic).
Collaborate with backend (Django) on API contracts; influence data models & versioning
strategy.
Establish frontend testing (Jest, Playwright) and performance budgets (LCP, memory use,
FPS).
Accessibility & i18n compliance across interactive simulation interfaces.
Document UI integration patterns and mentor mid-level engineers.

Skills

Expert React + TypeScript; state management (Redux Toolkit / Zustand) and component
architecture.
Real-time web: WebSockets, SSE, binary data handling, backpressure strategies.
3D / visualization: Three.js or similar; experience rendering robot models (URDF) and sensor data.
Familiarity with ROS 2 concepts (topics, services, parameters, TF) sufficient to model UI
abstractions.
Integration with rosbridge / roslibjs or custom protocol adapters.
Secure embedding (CSP, sandboxed iframes, OAuth/JWT flows).
Strong testing (unit, integration, E2E) and CI best practices.
Performance profiling (Chrome DevTools, React Profiler) and optimization.

Additional Requirements

Experience with Gazebo (Fortress/Garden/Harmonic) web tooling, gzbridge, or simulation
streaming (WebRTC/VNC).
Data visualization libs (D3, Visx, Plotly) for telemetry and logs.
WebAssembly usage (e.g., parsing robotics data formats).
GraphQL schema design; code generation pipelines.
Container-aware frontend dev (understanding of per-session sandbox orchestration).
Open edX MFE familiarity or other LMS integration experience.
System-level thinking; anticipates scaling issues.
Precise technical writing (design ADRs, integration guides).
Mentorship and code review rigor.

Salary

Negotiable

Others

Provide CV + portfolio/GitHub showcasing real-time or 3D interactive web apps and a brief note on any robotics or simulation UI you have delivered.
