Senior Software Engineer, Frontend (Physical Design)
Aurora is on a mission to create a future of solar for all. Our award-winning software puts the power of data and technology into the hands of every solar professional to make solar adoption simple and predictable. Our software has designed millions of solar projects so far, empowering solar companies to sell, design, and install residential and commercial solar arrays accurately, seamlessly, and at scale.
We’ve been named one of "The Best Remote Companies" by BuiltIn.com and have been recognized for the second time as a Certified Green Business (CGB) with the city of San Francisco. We’re in this together to support the world’s transition to solar.
The Physical Design team builds the core technology that powers every solar design created in Aurora. We own the CAD tools, 3D canvas, shading and irradiance calculations, and the underlying data model that enables accurate digital representations of real-world sites. Our work gives solar professionals the confidence to design high-quality systems quickly and accurately.
We're a collaborative team of software engineers, product managers, and designers who enjoy solving technically complex problems together. We value thoughtful engineering, continuous learning, and building scalable systems that have a meaningful impact on the clean energy transition.
As a Senior Software Engineer, Frontend on the Physical Design team, you'll build intuitive user experiences that enable solar professionals to design with confidence. You'll partner closely with engineers, product managers, and designers to shape, build, and deliver features that improve one of the most critical parts of the Aurora platform.
We're looking for an engineer who is curious, collaborative, and passionate about creating high-quality software. You'll contribute across the development lifecycle—from technical design and implementation to code review, testing, and production support—while helping evolve the frontend architecture and engineering practices that power our product.
Our technology stack includes TypeScript, JavaScript, React, GraphQL, three.js, PostgreSQL, Ruby on Rails, and Python.
This is a senior individual contributor role based in our Warsaw, Poland office with a hybrid work model, reporting to the Senior Manager of Engineering, Physical Design.
Foster a collaborative engineering culture through mentorship, planning, technical discussions, and occasional support for cross-team initiatives

It depends on location. Roles in the US and Canada are posted as remote, while European roles are hybrid and tied to a specific office: engineering out of Warsaw, Poland, and sales out of Munich, Germany. Aurora also offers a coworking stipend for remote and hybrid team members who want an in-office setting.
US postings use zone-tiered base pay ranges rather than a single national number. For example, a Staff Analytics Engineer role listed Tier 1 (San Francisco and New York) at $163,500 to $216,700, Tier 2 (cities such as Seattle, LA, DC, Boston, and San Diego) at $149,800 to $198,600, and Tier 3 (all other US locations, including Colorado) at $136,200 to $180,600. New-hire pay is typically set at the start of the range.
Medical, dental, and vision premiums are 100% covered for employees and 90% for dependents. Aurora offers flexible PTO and 16 weeks of parental leave at 100% base salary with a gradual return to work. Stipends include $500 for a home office ($750 for engineering), $300 a month for coworking, up to $100 a month for connectivity, and $720 a year for learning and development after 90 days. Wellness support includes monthly classes plus Wellhub and Modern Health.
Aurora has teams in the US, Canada, Poland, and Germany, with more locations planned. Roles are tied to a specific country rather than open to work-from-anywhere, so each posting lists where you need to be based.
People who want to build software for the solar industry and are comfortable in a remote-first setup that still keeps offices and some hybrid roles. Aurora leans toward candidates who put customer outcomes and team progress ahead of individual credit, and who can work with autonomy across a company spread over four countries.
