About the role
As a member of Rainmaker’s State Business Development team, you will grow Rainmaker’s business with state government customers in California. You will identify and develop opportunities for Rainmaker’s precipitation enhancement and water resource programs - from state appropriations and grant programs to agency contracts and pilot programs - while building the long-term relationships and policy environment that turn those opportunities into funded work.
Because our customers are primarily state agencies and publicly funded entities, success in this role combines business development instincts with the legislative, budget, and procurement fluency needed to work effectively with government partners. The role also offers the opportunity to coordinate public/private partnerships - bringing together state agencies, water districts, agricultural interests, and private capital - making this a dynamic opportunity to build the business across both public and private channels.
