Aescape is looking for a Senior Frontend Engineer that will work directly with a stellar team to help build the software that connects people with our frontier robotics capabilities — and shape how we deliver world-class experiences on one of the most technically ambitious platforms in wellness. This is an amazing opportunity to drive product quality at every layer of the stack as we revolutionize the recovery industry. If this sounds like you, we'd love to hear from you!
This role is hybrid, based out of our NYC office in Chelsea.
As a Senior Frontend Engineer at Aescape, you will:
Own the core interface (Kotlin / Android) between our robot and our customers, working closely with UX Designers and Robotics experts to set the standard for communicating body intelligence insights and enable smooth bodywork sessions.
Collaborate with our robotics and backend engineers to translate hardware telemetry into actionable interfaces (React/Next.js webapps) for our partners and support staff.
Integrate tightly with our Go microservices backend, owning the full request lifecycle from API contract through to user-facing state.
Enforce best practices in code quality, testing, and architecture across the frontend codebase.
Contribute to platform decisions about state management, navigation, component systems, and CI/CD pipelines.
Champion appropriate use of modern coding tools such as AI-assisted development and automated testing to enable the entire engineering team to collaborate on the product.
Demonstrated proficiency building production Kotlin mobile applications, ideally with JetPack Compose & Gradle.
Demonstrated proficiency with modern UX application patterns (component libraries, form validation, data fetching, SSR).
Solid understanding of REST API integration patterns, authentication flows, and client-side state management.
Experience with mobile release pipelines, CI/CD automation, and multi-environment deployment processes.
Bias toward action — iteratively shipping to production, owning quality from commit to customer.
Ability to work on-site (hybrid 3 days/week negotiable) in our NYC office.
Cross-Platform & Web Exposure: Experience with or willingness to contribute to:
Flutter / Dart (used in our member booking and session insights app)
React, Next.js, and TypeScript (used in our internal administrative and partner tooling)
Backend Systems: Familiarity with Go microservices or a willingness to dive in and debug backend endpoints.
Interactive Visualization: Familiarity with C# / Unity or real-time 3D graphics (used in our internal massage trajectory visualization tooling).
Hardware & Dedicated Devices: Prior experience building software for dedicated kiosks, custom tablets, IoT devices, or interfacing with robotics (e.g., ROS2).
