We develop and incorporate radar validation, weather-resistant UAS, numerical weather modeling, and sustainable cloud seeds into an effective precipitation enhancement solution. The Engineering team at Rainmaker works on our UAS, dispersion payload, and in-situ/remote sensing systems. If you are interested in working in an extremely innovative and fast paced environment, where your work directly makes an impact and difference in our operational system, this is a fantastic opportunity. In this role you will be reporting directly to the Electrical Engineering Lead and will be working on mission critical subsystems for our UAS platform. ## About Rainmaker Technology Corporation ## Company Overview - **One-liner**: Rainmaker Technology Corporation uses drone-based cloud seeding to increase precipitation, restore ecosystems, and fight drought. - **Entity Type**: Public (NASDAQ: RNK) – also described as privately held in some sources; likely a recent public listing with small revenue and high growth. - **Headquarters**: El Segundo, California, United States - **Founded**: 2023 - **Founders**: Not publicly available ## Core Business - **Primary industry**: Climate Technology Product Manufacturing / Weather Modification - **Target customers**: Governments, water districts, agricultural operators, and environmental restoration organizations (B2G/B2B) - **Mission or purpose**: “Make rain. Make snow. Make Earth habitable.” – ending water scarcity with next-generation cloud seeding. ## Products & Services - **[Next-Generation Cloud Seeding System]**: Integrated system of advanced radar, unmanned aircraft (drones), and a cutting-edge weather awareness platform. Used to deliver moderate, predictable increases in precipitation. Aimed at restoring ecosystems, recharging aquifers, and reducing wildfire risk. ## Market Standing - **Valuation/Market Cap**: Not disclosed; total funding of $31.3M (LinkedIn) or $73.9M (CB Insights) – conflicting reports. Last funding round: Series B of $41M (CB Insights) or Series A of $25M led by Lowercarbon Capital (LinkedIn). - **Key Metric**: Annual Revenue $7.3M (LinkedIn); Total Funding $31.3M (LinkedIn) / $73.9M (CB Insights) - **Notable Investors/Partners**: Lowercarbon Capital, Starship Ventures, UP Partners, 1517 Fund, Long Journey Ventures, Garry Tan, and 18+ others (CB Insights). - **Growth Signals**: 78 employees (+117.4% YoY); 15,285 LinkedIn followers (+148.5% YoY); active job postings: 35 (+337.5% YoY); first U.S. commercial cloud-seeding operation with measured proof of generated precipitation (19 million gallons in 3 hours with 2 drones, August 2026). ## Competitive Advantages - **Scientific Rigor**: Embedded research organization (Rainmaker Fellows) dedicated to validating results and transparency. - **First-Mover Proof**: Demonstrated measurable, unambiguous precipitation increase in a commercial operation (USA Today coverage). - **Integrated Technology**: Combines radar, drones, and weather platform – a modern, proprietary system vs. legacy cloud seeding methods. - **Location**: Based in El Segundo, CA, part of a deep-tech ecosystem with strong engineering talent. ## Strategic Focus - **Scale operations**: Expanding into new geographies (Australia, Southern Europe, DACH, India, Middle East); hiring directors of business development for multiple regions. - **Research & Development**: Launched Rainmaker Fellowship (3-month program) to advance atmospheric science and weather modification. - **Regulatory & Public Trust**: Committed to transparency and public education about cloud seeding capabilities and limitations. ## Why Work Here - **Culture**: Described as “an engineering organization and a microcosm of El Segundo's spirit” – iterate quickly, solve the most important problem of our age. - **Work Environment**: On-site roles in El Segundo, CA, with seasonal field positions across the western U.S. (Utah, Nevada, etc.). - **Growth**: Rapidly scaling headcount (117% YoY), high-visibility work with real-world environmental impact. - **Perks**: Opportunity to work on “physical technology” in a deep-tech renaissance; hands-on with drones, radar, and weather systems. - **Values**: Stewardship of the natural world, scientific rigor, and making freshwater available to all. ## Sources 1.
