Brandon Cohen is a data-focused technologist and operator with 11 years of experience building data products, pipelines, and analytics for construction, utilities, and enterprise clients. As Co-Founder and Head of Data & Operations at CivilGrid he combines GIS, geotechnical and utility data to accelerate project due diligence and reduce engineering risk, drawing on prior consulting roles where he engineered ETL, data warehouses, and predictive tools. He pairs hands-on engineering—contributing front-end improvements to open-source projects like Overseerr—with client-facing program leadership that delivered multi-million dollar savings and managed large consulting portfolios. An MBA from Wharton and an engineering BA from Dartmouth underpin his ability to translate complex technical tradeoffs into business outcomes. Less obvious: he blends product instincts from early-stage fintech product management with deep technical craftsmanship, enabling him to both prototype code and drive strategic vendor and agency partnerships.
