Union Technologies is reindustrializing America’s defense manufacturing base with a first-of-its-kind Factories-as-a-Stockpile model, integrating advanced robotics, manufacturing, and software into sovereign factory systems at scale.
Requirements
- 5–8+ years building production web UIs with server-side rendering and minimal-JS approaches.
- Strong HTML/CSS fundamentals; proficiency with HTMX (or similar: Alpine.js, Datastar, Turbo, Unpoly) and template engines (Go preferred).
- Experience consuming Go-backed APIs (REST/gRPC) and real-time transports (WebSockets/SSE).
- Proven delivery of performant, accessible UIs in constrained environments (kiosk/tablet, variable networks).
- Strong testing discipline and experience with frontend observability.
- Security mindset: authN/Z, session hardening, secure-by-default UI design.
- Familiarity with modern CSS frameworks and component libraries (Tailwind, Shadcn, Bootstrap, or similar).
Responsibilities
- Build SSR applications using HTMX + Go templates with progressive enhancement, component reusability, and minimal JavaScript.
- Design operator-facing workflows for traveler routing, work orders, quality checkpoints, data visualization, and real-time machine dashboards.
- Implement resilient form handling: validation, optimistic UI patterns, live updates, and retry strategies for unreliable shop-floor connectivity.
- Define and enforce UI performance budgets (TTFB, latency) and accessibility standards across various display formats.
- Collaborate with backend and controls engineers to model machine/part states; integrate barcode/RFID scanning and label/pack slip printing.
- Harden frontends with secure defaults: CSP, CSRF protections, session management, role-based views, and secure exports.
- Contribute to shared design guidelines, review checklists, and a lightweight SSR/HTMX component library.
Other
- Conduct peer reviews, mentor mid-level engineers, and contribute to technical design discussions and cross-functional planning.
- Relocation to Dallas, TX is required.
- Exceptional talent shouldn't be bound by geography.
- Additional incentives may be available for those who move quickly.
- Compensation Range: $115K - $185K
