(Business Analyst – Investment & Data)
Boston | Hybrid

Despite the title, this is a business-facing investment analyst role , not a data engineering position.

This role sits inside a quantitative investment environment and focuses on understanding investment workflows, data flows, and business requirements , then translating them into clear specifications, analytics, and prototypes for engineering and quant teams.

If you enjoy working close to investments, asking “why,” and shaping solutions , this role fits.
If you’re looking to build pipelines or production systems end-to-end, it won’t.

What you’ll actually do

  • Act as the business analyst between investment teams, quants, and engineers
  • Deeply understand investment and private markets data
  • Use SQL (and some Python) to query, validate, and analyse data — not to build platforms
  • Translate business questions into clear requirements, designs, and test cases
  • Support onboarding of new datasets and resolve data quality issues
  • Help shape analytics and tooling used in investment decision-making

This role is a strong fit if you:

  • Come from asset management, private equity, investment management, or banking
  • Have worked as a Business Analyst, Product Analyst, Business Systems Analyst, or similar
  • Are data-literate (SQL comfortable, Python helpful) but business-driven
  • Enjoy sitting between investment, data, and technology teams
  • Want impact without being a pure engineer
