WindBorne Systems provides higher-resolution atmospheric measurements to improve weather forecasting, climate research, and environmental monitoring. The company operates a constellation of long-duration, high-altitude smart balloons equipped with sensor payloads that capture multi-layer atmospheric data and telemetry. It combines that balloon-collected data with AI-driven forecasting models and delivers outputs via data services and integrations (APIs) for downstream use. WindBorne is a data-and-platform provider focused on scientific and operational users who need improved atmospheric observations.

WindBorne Systems is supercharging weather forecasts with a unique proprietary data source: a global constellation of next-generation smart weather balloons targeting the most critical atmospheric data. We design, manufacture, and operate our own balloons, using the data they collect to generate otherwise unattainable weather intelligence.
Our mission is to eliminate weather uncertainty, and in the process help humanity adapt to climate change, be that predicting hurricanes or speeding the adoption of renewables. We are building a future in which the planet is instrumented by thousands of our microballoons, eliminating gaps in our understanding of the planet and giving people and businesses the information they need to make critical decisions. The founding team of Stanford engineers was named Forbes 2019 30 under 30 and is backed by top-tier investors, including Khosla Ventures and Footwork VC.
We’re hiring a Product Engineer to join our Solutions team, which serves as WindBorne’s internal “venture studio”. Your mandate is to combine design and weather intelligence to build, ship, and scale high-impact solutions for critical industries. You’re a builder at heart – a 50/50 blend of designer/engineer – who loves working with significant autonomy and extreme ownership to rapidly turn new feature ideas into polished, customer-facing digital prototypes & experiences. You're detail-oriented, highly curious about AI-assisted software development, and love interfacing directly with frontend code. If you’re looking to leverage design to tackle climate change head-on, this role is for you.
