The posting

Rainmaker builds systems to increase precipitation and improve water availability. We combine atmospheric science, autonomous aircraft, radar and satellite observations, weather modeling, and novel sensing technologies.

Our software connects these systems, supports field operations, and turns each operation into data that improves the next one.

The role

What you'll do

  • Own production infrastructure end to end, setting the standards for how services get deployed, monitored, and recovered.
  • Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines and test infrastructure for rapid agentic development.
  • Balance rigor and security with the need for engineers to move quickly.
  • Work across software, science, aircraft engineering, and field operations.

What we're looking for

  • A software engineer with experience building production infrastructure.
  • Fast, thoughtful, autonomous, and opinionated.
  • Willing to relocate to El Segundo, CA.
  • Built and operated production systems. We care more about what you have shipped than your degree or years in the industry.
  • Deep familiarity with AWS and infrastructure-as-code tools such as Pulumi or Terraform.
  • Managed secrets and credential lifecycles in a fast-moving environment.
  • Designed or maintained zero-trust, WireGuard-based networks; we run almost everything on Tailscale.

What success looks like

Benefits

  • Significant stock options with high potential upside as an early-stage company
  • 401(k) with employer matching
  • Full health coverage (medical, dental, and vision insurance)
  • Relocation assistance provided (if applicable)
  • Unlimited PTO
  • Paid parental leave for both parents
  • Lunch provided when working in-office and a fully stocked kitchenette

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
