Why join Rainmaker?
This gets very big if drought becomes a standing cost for Western farms and cities, and seeded rain proves predictable enough to plan around. El Segundo-based Rainmaker could become the cleantech operating layer for water in drought-hit regions, with drones and radar doing the work. DCVC and Lowercarbon led a $100M Series B, a top-quarter round for its stage, and 9 new roles in 30 days show momentum.
JustBacked's take, based on Rainmaker's own site and its funding and hiring data.
Rainmaker is pioneering a modern cloud seeding system to solve water scarcity and inclement weather problems. We develop and incorporate radar validation, weather-resistant UAS, numerical weather modeling, and sustainable cloud seeds into an effective precipitation enhancement solution.
The Engineering team at Rainmaker works on our UAS, dispersion payload, and in-situ/remote sensing systems. If you are interested in working in an extremely innovative and fast paced environment, where your work directly makes an impact and difference in our operational system, this is a fantastic opportunity.
This role combines hands-on individual contribution with technical leadership — you'll own hardware from concept to production while also guiding and reviewing the work of other engineers on the team.
