About Meridian Data Solutions

We've been helping mid-market enterprises get more out of their data since 2013.

Our Story

Meridian Data Solutions was founded in San Francisco in 2013 by a team of data engineers and product leaders who noticed a persistent gap: mid-market companies were drowning in data but lacked the specialized talent to act on it. Enterprise software vendors ignored them; boutique consultancies couldn't scale with them.

We built Meridian to fill that gap—combining the rigor of enterprise data practice with the responsiveness and accountability of a focused partner. Today we serve clients across financial services, healthcare, legal, and technology, with a team of more than forty engineers, analysts, and compliance specialists.

Every engagement starts with understanding your business objectives, not the technology. That orientation keeps us aligned with outcomes rather than deliverables, and it's the foundation of our 98% client retention rate.

Mission & Values

Mission

To empower organizations with the data capabilities that were previously available only to the largest enterprises.

Clarity over complexity

We build what our clients can operate. We prefer durable, simple architectures over impressive but fragile ones.

Outcomes over outputs

Our engagements are scoped around measurable business outcomes, not project milestones.

Honest partnership

We tell clients what we think, not what they want to hear. That honesty is why clients stay.
