Work & culture

Mission-driven, technical team of engineers, scientists, and meteorologists focused on making weather forecasting more accurate and more accessible; public materials emphasize rigorous modeling, rapid iteration, and applications in government, defense, and climate resilience.

Compensation

Public compensation signals are limited; external salary-estimate sites suggest typical annual pay roughly in the low six figures for many roles, but Atmo does not appear to publish formal salary bands.

Product & market

Pricing

Custom enterprise and government contracts; pricing appears bespoke rather than self-serve public pricing.

  • —Up to 50% better accuracy on key variables in public claims
  • —High-resolution forecasts down to 1km or 2km depending on deployment
