Responsibilities
Develop and scale user-facing web applications and core backend APIs to bridge real-time data pipelines with intuitive interfaces. Collaborate cross-functionally to integrate AI models and maintain high-quality, tested code across the full stack.
Requirements
Requires a BS/MS in Computer Science or related field with 3+ years of professional full-stack engineering experience. Proficiency in modern frontend frameworks, backend languages, and real-time data handling is essential.
Full job description
Archer is an aerospace and defense company headquartered in San Jose, California, building the aircraft and technology that will define the next era of flight. The company works across air taxis, UAS, AI and powertrain development — building real-world systems that combine software intelligence with physical hardware. That includes Midnight, Archer's all-electric air taxi; Halo, an autonomous vertical takeoff and landing aircraft built for both commercial and defense use; and ZEE, Archer's AI foundation model built specifically for aviation. We’re seeking exceptional engineers, operators and builders to join us on our mission to build the future of aerospace and defense.
Our sights are set high and our problems are hard, and we believe that diversity in the workplace is what makes us smarter, drives better insights, and will ultimately lift us all to success. We are dedicated to cultivating an equitable and inclusive environment that embraces our differences, and supports and celebrates all of our team members.
What You’ll Do
As a Senior Software Engineer, Full Stack, you will develop, maintain, and scale both the user-facing web applications and the core backend APIs that power our cutting-edge products. You will bridge the gap between our real-time data pipelines and intuitive user interfaces, ensuring a seamless experience for our users.
Develop and maintain responsive front-end applications and the robust backend APIs that support them.
Implement real-time data streaming features to visualize dynamic data on maps and dashboards.
Collaborate cross-functionally with Backend, Data Science, and DevOps teams to integrate AI models into the user experience.
Participate in the full development lifecycle—from coding and code reviews to deployment and feature monitoring.
Write clean, maintainable, well-documented, and thoroughly tested code across the entire stack.
Monitor application performance, troubleshoot bugs, and assist in root cause analysis for production issues.
What You Need
BS/MS degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related technical field (or equivalent practical experience).
3+ years of professional software engineering experience across the full stack.
Solid proficiency in modern frontend frameworks (e.g., React, Vue, TypeScript) and backend languages (e.g., Python, Node.js, Rust, Go).
Experience handling real-time data on the frontend (e.g., WebSockets, SSE) and managing application state.
Good understanding of API design (REST/GraphQL), relational databases (e.g., PostgreSQL), and caching layers (e.g., Redis).
Familiarity with containerization (Docker) and modern development workflows (Git).
Able to leverage AI coding assistants to increase velocity while fully understanding and taking ownership of all code you commit.
Strong communication skills and a collaborative mindset to thrive in a fast-paced team environment.
Bonus Qualifications
Experience with web-based mapping and visualization libraries (e.g., Mapbox, MapLibre).
Experience with real-time audio consumption workflows, including Opus decoding, browser audio rendering APIs, and managing multi-channel live audio streams via LiveKit/WebRTC.
Familiarity with cloud platforms (AWS, GCP) and basic Kubernetes concepts.
Exposure to event-driven architectures or streaming systems.
A deep interest or background in aerospace, aviation, or autonomous systems.
