Job Description

Front-End Developer – Human-Centered Interfaces 


Location: Columbia, MD 
Clearance Required: TS//SCI with FS Polygraph 

 

What You’ll Do 
This role focuses on building intuitive, reliable interfaces for people working on complex problems. You’ll help develop front ends that surface mission data clearly, streamline workflows, and reduce user friction. Some tools will be polished and production-ready; others will be quick-turn prototypes designed for feedback and iteration. Either way, you'll shape how people interact with the systems that support critical decisions. 

We’re hiring across experience levels — from early-career engineers to senior developers with deep expertise in scalable UI architecture (SWE0 through SWE3). 

 

Who This Might Be a Fit For 
This could be a great fit if you: 

  • Care about how users experience the tools they rely on 

  • Write code that is clean, tested, and maintainable 

  • Understand how to design for performance, clarity, and constraints 

  • Like collaborating with designers, backend engineers, and mission users 

  • Think about accessibility, edge cases, and long-term maintainability 

 

Why Shadow 
Front-end work at Shadow isn’t about glossy UI trends — it’s about clarity, trust, and usability under pressure. We build tools that work the way people need them to, often in demanding environments. If you care about mission-driven interfaces and purposeful engineering, you’ll find like-minded builders here. 

Interested? 
If this role sounds like a fit, we encourage you to reach out — we’re actively shaping teams for upcoming work. 

 

What Comes With It 

You’ll have what you need to do your best work: 

  • Fully covered health insurance – medical, dental, vision 

  • Paid parental leave – 16 weeks if you give birth, 4 weeks if your partner does 

  • Flexible leave – designed to support real life, not restrict it 

  • 401(k) – for your future 

  • Short- and long-term disability – because life happens 

  • Annual health stipend – if you opt out of our insurance 

 

The Extras? They're Built In 

No points systems. No bean bags. Just clarity, autonomy, and a mission that matters. 

Elite talent deserves elite support. Our benefits empower you to excel professionally and personally, recognizing your value through comprehensive health coverage, disability protection, and meaningful well-being initiatives. By investing in you, we ensure you have the tools, resources, and support you need to thrive—inside and outside of work.
