Wildcard Long , California,

At Mantari Industries, we’re replacing yesterday’s public sector weather systems with a full stack, AI-native platform that senses, models, and predicts Earth’s atmosphere and oceans in near real time. Our mission is to sense Earth in its entirety — oceans, skies, and space — and close the gap between what nature does and what humanity knows.

Back by premier venture capital and led by engineers and scientists who’ve landed rockets and pioneered novel AI forecast techniques, we move fast, own the hard problems end to end, and measure success in real world impact. If you want to build frontier tech with outsized consequences, welcome aboard.

If you see gaps where others see limits, keep reading.

Find the biggest lever inside our sensing → data → model → product pipeline and pull it hard—whether that’s writing CUDA kernels for a new GPU ensemble, designing a buoy powertrain that survives the Bering Sea, or brokering a data-sharing deal with Space Force.

Ship early and often. Prototype in weeks, not quarters. Own the win-conditions and the post-mortem.

Operate founder-level. Challenge strategy, shape roadmaps, and hire/mentor talent as we grow.

Stretch beyond your lane. If your idea can 10× forecasting (or decision-making) skill, you’ll get the runway to prove it.

We’re looking for:

• A ML engineer who rips apart climate models on JAX—but also tunes RF front-ends on the weekend.
• A systems hacker who’s built satellites, sensor nets, or HF comms and wants to aim that skill at weather.
• A go-to-market savage who’s closed eight-figure gov-tech deals and can decode FAR acronyms in your sleep.
• A product polymath who turns messy data into dashboards that pilots, traders, and warfighters swear by.

Extreme ownership. You default to “I’ll figure it out” across hardware, software, or BD.

Rate of learning that makes diplomas look slow. You teach us something in the first interview.

Bias for action in chaotic, zero-hand-holding environments.

Signal of excellence in any domain: patents, open-source projects, combat deployments, PhD papers, startup exits—show us your spike.

You’ve delivered at least one production system or deal that moves Mantari’s core metrics (forecast skill, sensor coverage, ARR, or strategic leverage) by an order of magnitude.

Your work is cited in investor decks and DoD briefings as a reason Mantari wins.

Mission, not maintenance. We’re replacing government-era infrastructure with a private, AI-native platform that restores U.S. dominance in weather intelligence.

Vertical playground. Sensors, edge compute, deep-learning models, dual-use applications: the whole stack is on the table.

Talent density. Work alongside ex-Space

X engineers, former NCAR fellows, and business magicians who care about impact over ego.

Upside. Competitive cash, meaningful equity, and the chance to write your own role into the org chart.

Send us one artifact that proves you’re the outlier we need—code repo, white paper, deal sheet, hardware teardown thread, battlefield story—plus a résumé. Drop it at with a two-sentence pitch on why us, why now.

Weather shapes every decision made on Earth. At Mantari you’ll write code that moves metal, launch sensors that tame storms, and see your work ship in weeks—not years.
Apply now—let’s create the future of weather, together.
