At Gauss Robotics, we make robotics engineering simple, affordable, and accessible — giving manufacturers a shortcut to robotics by automating engineering workflows with AI.
With gauss.chat, we are building the core interface that connects agentic AI to real robotic systems and simulation environments. Users can design, configure, and deploy robotic applications through natural language, real-time system feedback, and interactive 3D visualization.
We are looking for a Frontend Engineer to take ownership of this system and help shape the future of AI-driven robotics engineering.
This is a full-time position in Braunschweig (hybrid possible).
Tasks
- Own and evolve the gauss.chat frontend architecture built with React and TypeScript
- Design scalable UI structures and enforce clean modular boundaries in a growing codebase
- Integrate with modern authentication flows (OAuth, aws cognito, JWT)
- Implement real-time communication using WebSockets and Server-Sent Events (SSE) for streaming AI insights and robotics state updates
- Integrate deeply with backend services via REST APIs (Axios), streaming endpoints, and asynchronous workflows
- Develop high-performance 3D visualization components using Three.js and Meshcat for robotics simulation and system feedback
- Optimize rendering performance and responsiveness in real-time and 3D-heavy contexts
- Expand and maintain a reusable UI system using Material-UI (Joy) and Tailwind CSS
- Contribute to frontend testing strategy (unit + end-to-end) and enforce high code quality (ESLint, Prettier)
- Collaborate with backend, AI, and robotics engineers on architectural decisions and product direction
- Continuously identify and improve technical weaknesses in the frontend stack
This role is about building and owning a system — with the right initiative and performance, this role can grow into a Frontend Lead / Head of Frontend position.

Founded in 2023 in Braunschweig, Germany, Gauss Robotics is building the software foundation for the next generation of industrial robotics.
We believe robotics engineering itself must change. Today, deploying robotic systems is complex, expensive, and expert-driven. We are here to change that and turn robotics into a commodity — making industrial automation with robots scalable, flexible, and accessible even to the smallest production environments.
With world-class experience in robotics and AI, we are building a research-oriented software company that transforms robotics from hardware-centric projects into AI-native, software-defined systems.
Our mission is clear : We push robotics — by automating the engineering.
Join us to help define a new standard for industrial automation and building technology that reshapes an entire field.
