Climate Data Science information

What is climate data science?

Climate data science is an interdisciplinary field that uses statistical, computational, and analytical methods to gather, process, and interpret data related to the Earth's climate. Professionals in this area work with large datasets from sources like satellites, weather stations, and climate models to identify trends, make predictions, and inform policy decisions. Their work supports research on climate change, helps organizations adapt to environmental shifts, and contributes to the development of sustainable solutions.

How do climate data scientists typically collaborate with interdisciplinary teams to address complex environmental challenges?

Climate data scientists frequently work alongside meteorologists, ecologists, policy experts, and software engineers to analyze and interpret large datasets related to climate patterns and environmental impacts. Collaboration is key, as insights from different disciplines help ensure that the models and analyses are both scientifically robust and actionable for real-world decision making. Team members often hold regular meetings to discuss data sources, share findings, and align on research goals, which helps to bridge knowledge gaps and foster innovative solutions to climate-related problems.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a climate data scientist, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Climate Data Scientist, you need strong analytical skills, a background in statistics or environmental science, and proficiency in programming languages such as Python or R, often supported by a relevant degree. Familiarity with climate modeling tools, geospatial analysis software (like ArcGIS or QGIS), and data visualization platforms is typically required. Excellent problem-solving abilities, collaboration, and clear communication are crucial soft skills for translating complex data into actionable insights. These skills enable accurate interpretation of climate data, effective teamwork, and impactful communication of findings to inform climate policy and research.

Job description

About Watershed

Watershed is the enterprise sustainability platform. Companies like Airbnb, Carlyle Group, FedEx, Visa, and Dr. Martens use Watershed to manage climate and ESG data, produce audit-ready metrics for voluntary and regulatory reporting including CSRD, and drive real decarbonization. We are looking for team members who love product-building, want to work hard at a mission-oriented startup, and will collaborate with us in shaping the culture of a growing team.


We have offices in San Francisco, New York, Denver, London, Paris, Berlin, Sydney, Mexico City, and remote team members across the US and Europe. We hope that you'll be interested in joining us!


The role

We are looking for a team member who is excited to do everything involved in shipping great products, including hands-on engineering, talking with customers, and mastering the climate domain. Your past experience should include a track record of building things that users love.


Watershed’s technical stack is the web frontend that our customers use, together with a backend of climate data, climate models, and plug-ins to various financial systems. We build new products in a customer-first way so you’ll be working quite a bit in React, TypeScript, CSS, Node.js, etc. There’s no need to be a prior expert in our stack — it’s more important that you’re good at picking up technologies quickly.


Some traits that are important to our company culture: customer-obsessed, outcome-oriented, and inclusive. And we’re looking for owners, so we hope you’ll help us evolve this list.


What you could work on:

  • Build new interactive data visualizations to help climate leads understand their company's emissions.

  • Build APIs to unify carbon data access for customers and other engineers.

  • Build tools that help financial institutions measure and report emissions across their portfolio companies.

  • Build tools for customers to effectively ingest and interpret business data.


You will:

  • Ship code to production on day one

  • Collaborate with product, design, climate science, and data science to build and iterate on software that helps our customers understand their climate data


You might be a fit if you:

  • Have 4+ years of software engineering industry experience, preferably in Node.js web development or data pipelines

  • Have experience building scalable software starting from user needs

  • Are excited to join a startup and are ready to help evolve a growing engineering team


Must be willing to work from an office 4 days per week (except for remote roles)


Watershed has hub offices in San Francisco, New York, London, and Mexico City and satellite offices in Denver, Sydney, Paris, and Berlin. Where we have offices, employees are expected to be in office for 4 days per week. Certain jobs are open to being remote and will be specifically noted on the jobs page and in the job description if so.


What’s the interview process like?

It starts the same for every candidate: getting to know the team members through 1 to 2 conversations about Watershed, your experience, and your interests. Next steps can vary by role, but usual next steps are a skill or experience interview (e.g. a coding interview for an engineer, a portfolio review for a designer, deeper experience call for other roles) which leads to a virtual or in person interview panel. We prioritize transparency and lack of surprise throughout the process.


What if I need accommodations for my interview?

At Watershed, we are dedicated to ensuring an inclusive recruitment process. We provide reasonable accommodations for candidates with disabilities, long-term conditions, mental health needs, religious observances, neurodivergence, or pregnancy-related support requirements. If you need assistance during your process, please contact your recruiter.
