As a Data Solutions Engineer,

you’ll play a critical role in shaping how data powers investment decisions across breakthrough biomedical and climate technologies. You’ll work at the intersection of data engineering, analytics, AI-enabled workflows, and business strategy to build scalable solutions that transform complex datasets into actionable insights.

In this role, you’ll partner directly with investment, operations, and business teams to identify opportunities where data and automation can drive smarter decisions and operational efficiency. You’ll design and deliver modern data solutions spanning analytics dashboards, cloud data platforms, lightweight pipelines, and AI-assisted workflows that support both strategic research and day-to-day business operations.

You’ll join a collaborative, technically ambitious environment where curiosity, experimentation, and ownership are highly valued — and where the systems you build directly contribute to funding innovations that can improve and extend human lives.
