Front-End Developer – Human-Centered Interfaces
Location : Columbia, MD
Clearance Required : TS//SCI with Polygraph
Compensation Range : $110,000 - $260,000
What You’ll Do
This role focuses on building intuitive, reliable interfaces for people working on complex problems. You’ll help develop front ends that surface mission data clearly, streamline workflows, and reduce user friction. Some tools will be polished and production-ready; others will be quick-turn prototypes designed for feedback and iteration. Either way, you'll shape how people interact with the systems that support critical decisions.
We’re hiring across experience levels — from early-career engineers to senior developers with deep expertise in scalable UI architecture (SWE0 through SWE3).
Who This Might Be a Fit For
This could be a great fit if you:
Care about how users experience the tools they rely on
Write code that is clean, tested, and maintainable
Understand how to design for performance, clarity, and constraints
Like collaborating with designers, backend engineers, and mission users
Think about accessibility, edge cases, and long-term maintainability
Why Shadow
Front-end work at Shadow isn’t about glossy UI trends — it’s about clarity, trust, and usability under pressure. We build tools that work the way people need them to, often in demanding environments. If you care about mission-driven interfaces and purposeful engineering, you’ll find like-minded builders here.
