About this role

About Rainmaker Rainmaker is pioneering a modern cloud-seeding system to increase precipitation, improve water availability, and address severe-weather challenges. We combine atmospheric science, weather-resistant UAS, radar and satellite observations, numerical weather prediction, novel sensing systems, and sustainable seeding technologies to design, operate, and evaluate precipitation-enhancement programs. Rainmaker needs quantitative methods that translate atmospheric conditions into operational and program-design decisions. Fellows work on analyses intended to change what Rainmaker builds, where it operates, or how it evaluates results. About the Fellowship The Rainmaker Atmospheric Science Fellowship is a paid, full-time research appointment for exceptional undergraduate and graduate students, postdoctoral researchers, recent graduates, and other early-career researchers. You will join Rainmaker's atmospheric-science team and work alongside our researchers on a scoped quantitative project drawn from Rainmaker's current scientific and operational priorities and defined in close collaboration with your research lead or mentor. Project matching will consider available data, mentor capacity, team needs, and your background. You will take responsibility for a concrete analytical workstream while contributing to the broader team's research, reviews, and operational decisions. Fellows are not expected to arrive with an independent research agenda or define a project in isolation. You will be expected to turn an important atmospheric or operational question into a rigorous analysis and a result the team can continue using.
