About the role

Rainmaker's software supports campaign planning, field operations, weather analysis, aircraft operations, and customer delivery. You will build across that system, including internal tools, our operational platform, data products, and customer-facing software. You will work directly with operators, scientists, engineers, and business teams. You will find important problems, decide what software should do, and own the solution from the first prototype through production.

What they're looking for

  • You have owned software from an ambiguous problem through a maintained production product
  • You are strong with React and TypeScript and can work across a backend using Python or Node, databases, and cloud infrastructure
  • You have good product judgment and can create useful interfaces without a complete specification or finished design
  • You have built software for complex, technical, or data-intensive workflows
  • You work well with users and can distinguish the underlying problem from the first requested feature
  • You communicate technical ideas clearly to people with different backgrounds
