About the role
This is a rare chance to learn data science from the inside out at one of the fastest-growing healthcare startups in the country. As an Associate Data Scientist at Solace, you'll work on the forecasting and machine learning systems that operate our marketplace in real time: matching patients with advocates, predicting demand, and keeping the business ahead of its own growth.
What they're looking for
- A bachelor's or master's degree in Statistics, Data Science, Computer Science, Applied Math, or a related quantitative field (or equivalent practical experience), graduating between December 2026 and June 2027
- Strong fundamentals in statistics and probability: hypothesis testing, regression, and the judgment to know when your model is fooling you
- Working Python skills, including the core data science ecosystem (pandas, scikit-learn, NumPy), plus working SQL
- Projects that show you can do real quantitative work: research, internships, Kaggle competitions, hackathons, or personal modeling projects. We care about what you've built and what you learned from it, not just what you studied
- A bias toward action. You have an exceptional craving for momentum, and you'd rather ship a simple model that works than polish a complex one that never launches
- Curiosity for how systems work, comfort with ambiguity, and a refined palate for controlled chaos
More about this role
Healthcare in the U.S. is fundamentally broken. The system is so complex that 88% of U.S. adults do not have the health literacy necessary to navigate it without help. Solace cuts through the red tape of healthcare by pairing patients with expert advocates and giving them the tools to make better decisions—and get better outcomes.
We're a Series C startup, founded in 2022 and backed by Inspired Capital, Craft Ventures, Torch Capital, Menlo Ventures, Signalfire, and IVP. Our U.S. based team is lean, mission-driven, and growing quickly.
Solace isn't a place to coast. We're here to redefine healthcare—and that demands urgency, precision, and heart. If you're looking to stretch yourself, sharpen your edge, and do the best work of your life alongside a team that cares deeply, you're in the right place. We’re intense, and we like it that way.
