Staff Frontend Engineer, DC Infrastructure Tooling
AI summary of the role
Founding frontend engineer building a high-performance internal platform for planning, visualizing, and managing massive physical datacenter infrastructure across dozens of sites.
What you’ll do
- Own the UI layer for datacenter infrastructure planning and visualization tools
- Build extremely high-performance interfaces rendering millions of objects with sub-second interaction
- Develop interactive planning tools for rack elevations, floor layouts, power distribution, and network topology
- Establish frontend architecture: component library, state management, data fetching patterns, and build tooling
What you’ll bring
- Deep proficiency with TypeScript and React, with low-level understanding of React's rendering model
- Demonstrated experience building interfaces handling large, complex datasets with extreme performance (virtualized rendering, canvas/WebGL, efficient DOM management)
- 7+ years professional frontend engineering experience with senior-level ownership of production systems
- Strong understanding of frontend architecture: component design, state management, data fetching, and build tooling

About This Role CoreWeave is building one of the world's largest AI-focused cloud infrastructure platforms. We're standing up new data centers at an extraordinary pace, and the complexity of planning, tracking, and orchestrating each build demands purpose-built tooling that doesn't exist today. We're forming a new team dedicated to building that tooling in-house. The goal: a high-performance internal platform that gives network engineers, fleet engineers, and operations teams the ability to plan, visualize, and manage massive amounts of physical infrastructure across dozens of sites. As the founding frontend engineer on this team, you'll own the UI layer for these tools. You'll work alongside backend engineers to build applications that handle the full scope of datacenter infrastructure: network switches, GPUs, servers, optical transceivers, PDUs, cooli [... source excerpt omitted ...] tsheets, rack elevations, overheads, and more. Performance is non-negotiable. These tools need to render and interact with millions of objects per build without breaking a sweat. You'll make foundational technology decisions, establish the patterns and architecture that the team builds on, and have a direct hand in how quickly CoreWeave brings data centers online. What You'll Build Extremely high-performance interfaces for visualizing and planning datacenter infrastructure, often rendering massive amounts of structured records (device inventories, cable plans, rack assignments, power allocations) with sub-second interaction and filtering. Interactive planning tools for rack [... source excerpt omitted ...] nd can make deliberate decisions about when and how components re-render. Demonstrated experience building interfaces that handle large, complex datasets with extreme performance requirements: virtualized rendering, canvas or WebGL-based visualization, efficient DOM management, or similar techniques. Strong understanding of frontend architecture: component design, state management (particularly for complex, interconnected data models), data fetching and caching patterns, and build tooling. Experience designing and consuming APIs with attention to type safety, pagination, caching, and error handling. Track record of frontend performance optimization: bundle analysis, runtime profi
