[ABOUT ISTARI DIGITAL]
Istari is a digital engineering software company enabling our customers to turn the physical world into the digital to accomplish their specific mission or business objectives.
Istari was founded with the vision of making open, scalable digital engineering ecosystems a reality – where new technologies and systems are created digitally, free from the real-world constraints of costs and schedules. We are creating the world’s best engineering model sharing platform, allowing our customers to simply and securely integrate their models across different engineering disciplines, organizations, and security levels.
At Istari, we are passionate about our mission of creating the world's first open and scalable industrial metaverse. Whether our customers are designing prototypes, performing virtual testing, or training AI and autonomy for complex systems, we know that going digital will save them time, resources, and reduce their environmental impact.
While we are a distributed team with most team-members working remotely, we place an emphasis on staying connected and collaborative, prioritizing in-person opportunities to build trust as a team. At Istari, we still believe that trust is best built in-person. To do this, we have an engineering headquarters in Cambridge, MA for focused technical development and several times per year we gather for an off-site that allows us to develop our professional skills and our team relationships.
[VALUES]
At Istari, we live by our values, which include:
Purposeful Autonomy
We value letting people self-organize and self-motivate.
Our flat structure and lack of meeting clutter are meant to empower individuals and teams to be proactive.
Our autonomy is measured, goal-oriented, and results-driven – not meandering.
Clear objectives help us prioritize our time.
Smart Transparency
We believe in honest-but-kind communication, transparency, and open-door policies.
We love learning about challenges and tackling them early, not hearing good or bad news late.
We share work-in-progress across our team.
Fast feedback keeps autonomy purposeful.
Continual Curiosity
At Istari, we love learning to do things ourselves.
We ask, read, share, teach – even watch YouTube videos – to learn new skills to solve problems.
When we make breakthroughs, we write them down.
Writing focuses ideas, helps us learn, and helps us share.
Equal Opportunity
Istari is an Equal Opportunity/Affirmative Action Employer. All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, pregnancy, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, age, protected veteran status, or disability status.
We're looking for a Senior Front-end Engineer to join our growing Product Engineering team at Istari Digital. In this role, you’ll be a key contributor to our platform frontend, building interfaces that are not only functional and performant but beautifully designed and deeply usable.
We're seeking someone who brings strong engineering rigor to the front-end — while also having an eye for design and the willingness to work closely with our design team to translate research and prototypes into user-friendly products.
This role is ideal for someone who thrives in a collaborative environment, enjoys ownership from start to finish, and values thoughtful design and high-quality implementation.
Key Responsibilities
- Own the full lifecycle of frontend feature delivery — from shaping and spec’ing to design, implementation, testing, and release.
- Collaborate with customers, partner teams, and engineering managers to gather requirements and build impactful features.
- Work closely with our Head of Design and other engineers to bring user research to life, implement UI components that follow our design schema, and ensure consistent UX across the platform.
- Maintain high engineering standards for performance, security, maintainability, and velocity across the frontend codebase.
- Contribute to team-wide engineering practices, mentoring peers, reviewing code, and evolving our frontend architecture.
Required Qualifications
- Strong proficiency in React, TypeScript, and modern frontend tooling (we use Vite, Vitest, and Tailwind CSS).
- Experience working with REST APIs to power dynamic frontend applications.
- Comfort using Figma and partnering with designers to implement component libraries and responsive layouts.
- A strong product mindset — you care not just about how things work, but how they feel to the user.
- Demonstrated ability to independently own and deliver frontend features in a production setting.
- Typically requires a minimum of 5 years of related experience with a Bachelor’s degree; or 3 years and a Master’s degree; or a PhD without experience.
- Must be a U.S. citizen.
Preferred Qualifications
- Familiarity with backend technologies like Python, or deployment tooling such as Docker, Kubernetes, and Helm.
- Experience working on developer tools, mechanical engineering platforms, or high-security applications (e.g., in aerospace or defense).
- Familiarity with documentation sites like Docusaurus or low-code tools like Webflow.
Why Join Us
Istari is building next-generation tools for digital engineering — supporting some of the most ambitious and mission-critical work in aerospace, defense, and beyond. You’ll work on a thoughtful, fast-moving team that values autonomy, engineering craft, and product intuition. We take design seriously and invest deeply in quality.
We're remote-first but gather regularly in-person for collaboration and team-building. You’ll also have access to co-working space in Boston and Washington D.C. if you’re local to those areas.
Interested?
We’d love to hear from you. Apply with your resume and (if available) examples of work you're proud of — whether personal projects, past UI implementations, or design-collaboration work.
Istari Digital is proud to be an equal opportunity employer. We will consider qualified applicants without regard to race, color, creed, religion, sex, sexual orientation, national origin, citizenship, disability status, medical condition, pregnancy, protected veteran status or any other characteristic protected by federal, state, or local law.

What you need to know about the Los Angeles Tech Scene
Los Angeles is a global leader in entertainment, so it’s no surprise that many of the biggest players in streaming, digital media and game development call the city home. But the city boasts plenty of non-entertainment innovation as well, with tech companies spanning verticals like AI, fintech, e-commerce and biotech. With major universities like Caltech, UCLA, USC and the nearby UC Irvine, the city has a steady supply of top-flight tech and engineering talent — not counting the graduates flocking to Los Angeles from across the world to enjoy its beaches, culture and year-round temperate climate.
Key Facts About Los Angeles Tech
- Number of Tech Workers: 375,800; 5.5% of overall workforce (2024 CompTIA survey)
- Major Tech Employers: Snap, Netflix, SpaceX, Disney, Google
- Key Industries: Artificial intelligence, adtech, media, software, game development
- Funding Landscape: $11.6 billion in venture capital funding in 2024 (Pitchbook)
- Notable Investors: Strong Ventures, Fifth Wall, Upfront Ventures, Mucker Capital, Kittyhawk Ventures
- Research Centers and Universities: California Institute of Technology, UCLA, University of Southern California, UC Irvine, Pepperdine, California Institute for Immunology and Immunotherapy, Center for Quantum Science and Engineering
