16 jobs

Work directly with WindBorne’s CEO on strategic and operational priorities, lead important projects, and build AI automations that support the leadership team.

Help design, bring up, and test embedded electronics for WindBorne’s weather balloons and ground systems, from PCB prototypes through manufacturing support.

Develop firmware, sensor drivers, and low-level tools for WindBorne’s autonomous weather balloons. Work across hardware and software to test, debug, and improve systems operating in extreme conditions.

Own secure infrastructure for WindBorne’s data delivery, flight tracking, and operations. Build reliable systems that support sensitive data and government requirements.

Own go-to-market execution for WindBorne’s agentic weather product, from customer discovery and positioning to acquisition, retention, and monetization experiments.

Launch high-altitude weather balloons in Artigas, Uruguay. This part-time contractor role combines hands-on outdoor work with equipment preparation, safety procedures, and flexible shifts.

Launch high-altitude weather balloons and support prototype hardware near Bay Minette, Alabama. This part-time contractor role offers approximately 10–20 hours per week across evenings, weekdays, and weekends.

We are hiring a part-time balloon launch contractor based in Oahu, HI to support our weather forecasting mission. You'll be launching high-altitude weather balloons that collect atmospheric data used to improve forecasts for events like hurricanes and wildfires. The role is hands-on and outdoors, with flexible hours — approximately 10–20 hours per week, depending on the company's launch needs — across evenings, weekdays, and weekends.

Own government implementations across WindBorne’s software platforms, combining full-stack engineering, security compliance, and direct collaboration with government customers.

Build reliable infrastructure for WindBorne’s AI weather models, including production inference, data pipelines, distributed training, monitoring, and recovery.

Own operational projects across WindBorne’s balloon constellation, from field deployments and customer demonstrations to new hardware rollouts and unusual flight operations.

Lead WindBorne’s manufacturing line and technician team, manage daily production, troubleshoot challenges, and improve quality, workflow, and output.

This is an atypical position: most hardware isn’t at design lock, but we produce it at volume (currently 1,000 units a month, doubling every six months). We need someone to make decisions on which parts of a design are stable enough to tool up and document, and which need to stay flexible, as well as the engineering rigor to build repeatable, sustainable production around a moving target. If that seems exciting, this job might be for you.

Own the software that turns raw weather-balloon measurements into trusted observations. Build sensor-processing pipelines, improve quality control, and investigate data issues.

Scale WindBorne’s balloon manufacturing with expertise in thin films, web handling, and film converting. Design production systems and work closely with the CTO and R&D team.
