Senior Frontend Engineer - Cloud & Real-time Interfaces for Edge

Helin

Helin

Software Engineering
Rijswijk, Netherlands · Remote
EUR 3k-3k / year + Equity
Posted on Jun 27, 2025
Company Description
“Red zone breach. Turbine offline. Crew unresponsive.”

These alerts can’t afford to be missed — and the interface is often the difference between a quick response and a dangerous delay.

At Helin, we don’t just design for clicks — we design for critical moments. Our edge platforms run directly on industrial sites, where seconds count and bandwidth drops. That means the UI must work instantly, clearly, and under pressure — whether you're 100 miles offshore or deep inside a wind farm.

As a frontend engineer, you’ll shape how operators visualize live data, react to system warnings, and stay one step ahead of failure. This isn’t dashboard design for nice-to-haves — it’s precision UI for life-saving systems. You’ll bring clarity to complexity, make real-time information human-readable, and help keep crews safe and energy flowing.

What you build here doesn’t just get used — it gets trusted in the field.
