Job brief

As a Senior Manager of Meteorological Technologies at The Weather Company, you will transform meteorological operations by strategically building meteorological tools and applying intelligent workflow automation and AI where they deliver real value. You'll partner with our 24x7 Forecast Operations team to evaluate emerging automation tools, build practical solutions and unlock higher productivity from our meteorologists.

This is both a leadership and hands-on technical role requiring someone who can co-design, build, manage, sustain and rapidly evolve cloud-based technology solutions in an operational meteorological environment, co-architect AI workflows and assess cutting-edge tools with discernment, and influence—often across multiple projects simultaneously. You'll aggressively evaluate AI capabilities in partnership with science and technology colleagues while thoughtfully deploying them in trustworthy ways, knowing when AI adds value versus when traditional solutions are smarter, and building pragmatic intelligent systems that operational meteorologists actually use.
