Overview:
The Food is Medicine Institute at the Friedman School of Nutrition Science and Policy at Tufts University (the Institute) seeks an outstanding postdoctoral fellow to work on an original nutrient profiling system, Food Compass, under the mentorship and guidance of Institute Director Dr. Dariush Mozaffarian.
Bringing together research, training, patient services, policy development, and community engagement, the Institute aims to serve as a catalyst to drive change, improve health, reduce health disparities, and create a more equitable and resilient healthcare system that recognizes the power of nourishing food. Its efforts are centered in health equity to work collaboratively with and improve the lives of traditionally marginalized, vulnerable populations. The Institute also hosts and builds networks with partnerships with stakeholders within and beyond healthcare to ensure that efforts advance well-being and policy broadly and reach the people who need them most.
WHAT YOU'LL DO:
This is a full-time (12 months per year) position with an anticipated duration of 2-3 years, subject to annual review and renewal based on performance and available funding. The position is based in Boston, MA, and requires regular in-person work. Flexible and hybrid arrangements (e.g., 1–2 days per week remote) may be considered; fully remote work is not available. Applicants must be authorized to work in the United States. The start date is negotiable. This position offers a competitive salary, excellent benefits, and opportunities for professional development, travel, and collaboration with leading researchers and partners.
The successful candidate will meaningfully contribute to advancing the development, expansion, and application of Food Compass across various partnerships. This may include research and activities related to:
- Updating and expanding the Food Compass algorithm according to the latest science, including expansion to include novel health-related bioactive attributes;
- Supporting ongoing work and manuscripts, including related data manipulation and harmonization of large U.S. branded food databases, including application of AI tools for nutrient attribute coding, ingredient extraction, and large-scale dataset harmonization;
- Leading analyses describing dietary intake in the United States and internationally using Food Compass and existing dietary data from major data sources, including the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES), the USDA Branded Foods Database, UK Biobank, and others;
- Collaborating with food retailers, healthcare systems, international health-focused government agencies, nutrition-focused venture capital firms and coalitions, and other organizations to advance the role of NPS in consumer education and the creation of a healthier and more equitable food environment;
- Disseminating research findings to relevant stakeholders, including the scientific community, food system leaders, legislative bodies, and advocacy groups and agencies.
The fellow will work within a close-knit, collegial multi-disciplinary team of other trainees, students, and staff within the Institute. In addition to mentoring from Dr. Dariush Mozaffarian, the fellow will interact with and gain knowledge and experience from a range of other expert faculty across the Institute and beyond. The fellow will also benefit from meetings, seminars, and coalitions of multi-sector leaders in Food is Medicine including healthcare, community-based, retail, policy, and advocacy organizations. The training program will emphasize the design and publication of original analyses and manuscripts as first author, career development, and transition toward an independent research career.

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding TN Visa Sponsorship as a BI Analyst
Frame your credentials around Systems Analyst
TN visa classification for BI Analysts falls under the Systems Analyst category. Your degree, resume, and offer letter must consistently use language tied to systems analysis, data modeling, or business intelligence systems to avoid a documentation mismatch at the port of entry.
Target employers experienced with visa sponsorship
Search for employers with recent visa filings for Systems Analyst or BI roles. A history of visa sponsorship signals a company already understands work visa processes and may be open to supporting your TN application at the port of entry or consulate.
Verify your degree field before applying
CBP officers assess whether your specific degree aligns with the BI Analyst role. A degree in computer science, information systems, or engineering supports the classification. Degrees in unrelated fields require a credential evaluation letter connecting your coursework to the systems analyst occupation.
Use Migrate Mate to find sponsoring employers fast
Searching broadly for BI Analyst jobs wastes time on companies unfamiliar with visa sponsorship. Migrate Mate filters for employers with recent visa filings, so you spend your effort on hiring managers already experienced with the visa process. For TN sponsorship, your employer will prepare a support letter outlining your qualifications and role—a straightforward process for companies familiar with work visa sponsorship.
Get the support letter right before crossing the border
Canadian citizens apply for TN status at a U.S. port of entry, not a consulate. Your employer's support letter must specify your role title, duties, salary, and the specific USMCA category. A vague or mismatched letter is the most common reason CBP officers deny entry.
Understand the Mexican TN process differs significantly
Mexican nationals must apply at a U.S. consulate in Mexico rather than at a land border crossing. Processing times vary by consulate, and you'll need a visa stamp before traveling. Build consulate appointment lead time into your negotiated start date with the employer.
BI Analyst TN Visa: Frequently Asked Questions
Does a BI Analyst role qualify for TN visa sponsorship?
Yes, but the classification depends on how the role is defined. CBP reviews BI Analyst positions under the Systems Analyst USMCA category. Your job offer must describe duties centered on designing, analyzing, or implementing business intelligence systems. Roles focused primarily on reporting or dashboard maintenance without a systems design component may face additional scrutiny at the port of entry.
How does TN compare to H-1B for BI Analyst positions?
TN has no annual lottery and no cap for Canadian citizens, meaning you can start as soon as your employer completes the documentation and CBP approves your entry. H-1B visa requires entering a random selection process each spring for an October start at the earliest. For most BI Analyst roles that qualify under the Systems Analyst category, TN is faster and more predictable than H-1B.
Where can I find BI Analyst jobs that offer TN visa sponsorship?
Most general job boards don't filter by employer visa sponsorship experience, which means you spend significant time on applications that stall during the offer stage. Migrate Mate is built specifically for TN visa job seekers and surfaces BI Analyst roles at employers with recent visa filings who understand the sponsorship process, reducing the risk of late-stage offer withdrawals over visa concerns.
What documents does my employer need to prepare for my TN application?
Your employer must provide a support letter on company letterhead stating your job title, a description of your duties as they relate to the Systems Analyst USMCA category, your credentials, the duration of employment, and your compensation. For Canadian nationals processed at a port of entry, this letter is the primary document CBP reviews. Mexican nationals also need this letter for their consulate appointment along with a completed DS-160 form.
Can I switch BI Analyst employers while on TN status?
Yes, but you must obtain new TN authorization before starting with the new employer. TN status is employer-specific, so your current approval does not transfer. Canadians can apply at a port of entry with new employer documentation. Mexican nationals need a new consulate appointment. Working for the new employer before your new TN is approved puts you out of status, so plan your transition timeline carefully.
