Job description

UI/UX Software Engineer at SE3 Labs who owns the look, feel and performance of the company's autonomy software, combining UX/UI design with hands-on front-end development. The role builds one coherent interface system spanning devices, plugins and product features, including interfaces for military personnel in the field.

What you'll do

  • Design and build a modular, well-structured front-end and a consistent design language that spans the whole product range
  • Make it easy to add new plugins and features, and to run on different systems and devices, without losing consistency or maintainability
  • Work with the team to understand user needs, design and wireframe interfaces, and turn them into working software
  • Own both the user experience and the code that brings it to life
  • Build interfaces that adapt across small screens, tablets and large displays, and stay responsive on resource-constrained hardware
  • Identify bottlenecks, optimise rendering and deliver a smooth experience without relying on high-end devices
  • Integrate 3D visualisations into the user interface so that they work smoothly alongside other features, including on devices with limited computing resources
  • Build reusable UI components for different plugins and product features, so that third parties and internal teams can extend the platform in a consistent way
  • Help design interfaces for military personnel working in demanding conditions, considering intuitive workflows, clear information hierarchy and established conventions such as NATO symbology
  • Learn from real user feedback and improve continuously
  • Work closely with the software team to understand customer needs and translate them into design and engineering decisions
  • Help shape how the interface evolves as the product grows, and look for ways to simplify workflows and make new capabilities easier to understand

What we're looking for

  • You enjoy building a coherent system rather than a single screen: one design language and one component structure that works across many plugins, systems and devices
  • Hands-on experience designing and implementing user interfaces for software products, with a focus on intuitive, usable experiences across different devices and screen sizes
  • Have built structured, responsive and maintainable front-end applications, not just static designs or isolated prototypes, and know how to organise code into reusable components and modular structures
  • Can move between UX/UI design and software development, turning wireframes and requirements into working interfaces and making informed decisions about both usability and implementation
  • Care about performance as well as appearance, and work methodically to improve the experience across different hardware
  • Work well with engineers and other stakeholders, explore different approaches and turn ideas into practical solutions
  • Take initiative, enjoy open-ended problems and want to help build and shape a product rather than maintain an established interface
  • Interested in software for real-world use, where clarity, reliability and ease of use matter as much as visual design
  • Happy to work on-site with the team in Munich

Nice to have

  • Experience integrating interactive 3D visualisations into software interfaces, particularly using Unreal Engine or similar technologies
  • Experience optimising front-end applications for low-compute devices, limited resources or demanding real-time requirements
  • Experience designing interfaces for complex systems where users need to interpret spatial information, symbols or multiple sources of information quickly
  • Experience in 3D gaming, motorsport, simulation or other fields where responsive interfaces and real-time visual feedback are important
  • Experience establishing a front-end architecture, reusable component system or coherent design language for a new product or platform
