WindBorne Systems is supercharging weather models with a unique proprietary data source: constellations of next-generation smart weather balloons targeting the most critical atmospheric data. Our long-term vision 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. The founding team of Stanford engineers was named Forbes under 30 and is backed by top investors including Khosla Ventures.
WindBorne Systems is seeking to expand our Business Development team to play a key role in accelerating our government sales growth and commercial go-to-market strategy.

You will work closely with our Head of Proposals and Capture to submit to new opportunities as well as our engineering, manufacturing, and operations teams to ensure that our products meet customer needs.
We're dedicated to helping humanity adapt to climate change as fast as possible, and you can be a part of our mission to make this global societal impact. If you are thrilled by the idea of bringing cutting-edge technology to market at the center of business development, sales, outreach, and relationship management on a fast-moving team, WindBorne is the place for you.
