About Cloudburst
Cloudburst looks for opportunities where public- and private-sector partnerships can be leveraged; where investments can best meet a need or drive change; and where innovation can advance social, economic, and environmental resilience. Cloudburst's work focuses on strengthening interventions, innovating new solutions, and advancing the impact of community and government programs in the U.S. and across the Globe. Cloudburst’s team of passion-driven difference-makers works to unearth root causes and structural and institutional barriers that help communities and governments address development challenges.
Cloudburst’s work is guided by a mission to improve economic, social, and environmental resilience. To this end, many of the populations and communities we work with focus on addressing structural and institutional racism that disproportionately impacts Black, Indigenous, and other people of color. Cloudburst believes that effective services and solutions are created with communities historically impacted by the systems we are attempting to transform. We strongly encourage applications from people who represent the culturally and ethnically diverse communities we work with.
The Cloudburst Group is committed to hiring and retaining a diverse workforce.
