Manufacturing Engineer - Quality

WindBorne is looking for a Manufacturing Engineer with a focus on quality to support the reliably operation of both our flight hardware and the equipment used to build it, as we scale production exponentially. You will own the development and implementation of an internal quality system and will play a crucial hand-on role in improving the throughput and consistency of manufacturing processes reliant on custom-designed tooling. You will also be responsible for diagnosing issues with returned units, identifying root causes, and implementing corrective measures to line equipment and manufacturing procedures to enhance flight reliability and performance.

Sensors Engineer

As Sensors Engineer, you will be responsible for the calibration of thousands of sensor packages and for managing the automated processes to perform quality control and bias correction of real-time flight data from around the globe. As we continue to scale, you’ll work on optimizing processes and look for ways to improve the sensing package and calibration systems, in terms of capabilities, throughput, and quality.

Soldering Technician

WindBorne is looking for a Soldering Technician to drive advancements in sensor manufacturing, playing a pivotal role in our business's success. You will be a part of the group responsible for assembling small weather balloon payloads, with the purpose of gathering atmospheric data over otherwise unobserved areas. If you have a passion for technology and the desire to be a part of an effort to drastically improve weather forecasting and tackle climate change please send your resume, optional portfolio of what you have soldered in the past, and include in the email what makes you excited about this opportunity!
