We are both a space company and data company all rolled into one.

Customers and users across the globe use Planet's data to develop new technologies, drive revenue, power research, and solve our world's toughest obstacles.

As we control every component of hardware design, manufacturing, data processing, and software engineering, our office is a truly inspiring mix of experts from a variety of domains.

We have a people-centric approach toward culture and community and we strive to iterate in a way that puts our team members first and prepares our company for growth. Join Planet and be a part of our mission to change the way people see the world.

Planet is a global company with employees working remotely world wide and joining us from offices in San Francisco, Washington DC, Germany, Austria, Slovenia, and The Netherlands.

About the Role

The Global Monitoring Service (GMS) App Team is seeking a Senior Software Engineer to work across the full stack of our application. We are looking for an individual who can contribute deep technical expertise across frontend and backend systems and provide mentorship to ensure adherence to engineering best practices.

The GMS App Team is responsible for providing a customized application for Defense & Intelligence customers from around the world. This application provides daily, near-real time monitoring and analytic insights on customer-defined sites built atop Planet's satellite data.

This is a full-time, remote position based in the United States. If located near an office, you are expected to work from that office 3 days per week.

Impact You'll Own

Design and implement features across the full stack, from user interface through API and data layers.
Develop and maintain applications using React, TypeScript, and Python.
Build and evolve the APIs and services that power the application, including data access and integration with upstream geospatial systems.
Mentor other engineers through code reviews and technical discussions.
Drive architectural decisions spanning frontend and backend, including component design, state management, API contracts, and service boundaries.
Own features end to end, including deployment, observability, and production support.
Collaborate with product managers and designers to deliver solutions.

What You Bring

10+ years of relevant work experience building and operating web applications end to end.
Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or other relevant field.
Proficiency with React, TypeScript, and component-based frontend architecture.
Proficiency with a server-side language such as Python or Go.
Experience designing, building, and operating backend services and REST APIs in production.
Working knowledge of relational databases, data modeling, and query performance.
Experience defining API contracts and integrating frontend and backend systems.
Ability to lead feature implementation from discovery through deployment and production support.
Ability to improve team capabilities through code reviews and knowledge sharing.
Experience mentoring teammates on engineering best practices.
Professional working proficiency in English, the language of the company.

What Makes You Stand Out

Experience with mapping libraries, geospatial data pipelines, or data visualization tools.
Experience with containerized deployments, Kubernetes, and infrastructure as code.
Experience with modern testing frameworks and CI/CD practices and leveraging AI tools to enhance productivity.
Background in geospatial technologies, remote sensing, or the defense and intelligence sector
