WindBorne is hiring Software Engineering interns to help build our in situ global nervous system, Atlas: From data driven automations in Palo Alto, to launch infrastructure in Korea, to the flight software that flies across the globe, back down the constellation management suite running on our phones, there is so much to build, and hopefully you can help!

WindBorne is on a mission to build a planetary nervous system and make a real impact on human lives, but we need someone to tell our story. As Content Lead, you'll work closely with our executive team to craft content for customers, press, and the general public.

WindBorne is hiring a Customer Success Specialist to join our Growth Team and ensure top notch contract execution. At the nexus of business development, engineering, and finance, you will be responsible for ensuring WindBorne’s contractual and business development strategic success through constant collaboration and operational precision. In this role, you’ll drive customer relationships, track contract deadlines, facilitate deliverables, manage invoicing, and more. 

WindBorne is hiring interns for its Electrical Engineering team.

As Finance at WindBorne, you will play a critical role in building the foundation and strategy behind our financial operations, working closely with the CEO and Chief of Staff. This role is ideal for someone who cares about our mission and wants to have a big impact as the first full-time finance hire. We’re looking for a problem solver—whether junior or experienced—who's eager to dive into the details, tackle challenges head-on, and grow with us as we scale.

WindBorne is seeking a Fullstack Web Developer to build products that deliver our forecasts to customers. As a member of the product team, you’ll be a key part of translating our deep technical advantages to something that real people can actually use. Our stack is a Ruby on Rails backend with a React frontend, which talks to various internal APIs for our weather observations and forecasts.

WindBorne is looking for a Production Manager to oversee the manufacturing line, ensuring smooth daily operations and meeting production targets. In this role, you will lead the technician team, proactively manage workflow efficiency, and serve as the first point of contact for troubleshooting and resolving production challenges. Your leadership will be essential in maintaining quality, optimizing processes, and driving the team toward achieving monthly production goals.

WindBorne is looking for a Manufacturing Test Engineer to ensure the quality and reliability of our products while we exponentially scale our manufacturing production. You will take ownership of developing and implementing internal testing systems aimed at ensuring the consistent delivery of high-quality units to the field. Additionally, you will play a crucial role in diagnosing issues with returned units, identifying root causes, and implementing corrective measures to enhance product reliability and performance. The test role at WindBorne is fairly unusual thanks to a combination of two factors: First, there is still tremendous potential for improvement of the hardware capabilities, even as we simultaneously work to scale. It’s not unreasonable for a major design update to come with a 2x performance improvement, so it’s necessary to rapidly move from R&D to volume production. Secondly, as a data company, we are both the builders and the users of our hardware, and can freely set the acceptable level of reliability based on operational needs. If we can improve performance by 50% but raise failure rates by 10%, that can be a totally worthwhile trade to get more net data. Your job will be to identify and quantify failure modes, design tests to investigate failures in manufacturing and flight, and generally work to improve manufacturing. You will also work with the responsible design engineers to develop solutions that you will help implement and create testing to ensure they are followed. We're dedicated to helping humanity adapt to climate change as fast as possible, and you can be a part of our mission to make this global societal impact. If you like the idea of working on cutting-edge technology, and working with a fast-moving team, WindBorne is the place for you.

WindBorne is seeking a Meteorological Data Scientist to contribute to the improvement of weather forecasting and climate analyses. As a member of the weather team, you’ll incorporate WindBorne’s unique state-of-the-art balloon constellation observations into the most advanced weather prediction systems. You’ll work with our team of scientists, engineers and flight controllers to influence the collection and use of observations from start to finish, beginning with balloon flight and ending with insights to help consumers, businesses and governments adapt to changing weather and climate.

The Regulatory Management Engineer will take ownership of securing and maintaining regulatory approvals for our expanding network of weather balloon launch sites worldwide. This is a critical role that ensures the smooth operation of our global operations while fostering strong relationships with regulatory authorities. In this role, you’ll combine your technical expertise with strategic thinking to secure and maintain regulatory approvals for our global network of launch sites. This position is perfect for a technically savvy professional—such as an engineer looking to expand into operational and regulatory leadership—who thrives on solving complex, interdisciplinary problems. You will be the bridge between WindBorne’s innovative technology and the regulatory frameworks that govern its deployment worldwide.

WindBorne is looking for a Web Handling/Film Converting Expert who knows exactly what those terms mean and why they matter. We need to scale our balloon manufacturing process to meet demand, and we believe your expertise in handling thin films at industrial scales is exactly what we need. If you've spent years wrestling with web tension control systems, designing nip rollers, or optimizing film handling processes, we want your expertise.

WindBorne is looking for a Weird Mechanical Engineer. What type of role is that? Well – balloons are an unconventional vehicle and we are looking for an unconventional engineer to help us build them! Many of the problems we encounter are unique to balloon systems, and there aren't standard off-the-shelf solutions to solve them. Mass is extremely tight and temperature ranges exceed most component ratings – many common requirements and constraints simply do not apply in our system, and many uncommon ones do.
