Job description
Welcome systems thinkers. System builds software to help the world see and solve anything as a system, starting in healthcare. We are a Public Benefit Corporation driven by purpose and shaped by values. We hire systems thinkers who are motivated by our purpose, share our values, and have the skills to advance our mission.
At System, non-technical roles are core to how we scale our mission, grow our impact, and maintain the culture and character of a purpose-driven organization.
In this track at System, you will:
Help build and scale the operational, commercial, and organizational systems that support our mission
Work cross-functionally with engineering, product, and research to drive alignment and execution
Bring structure and clarity to ambiguous, high-stakes problems
Represent System's values and mission externally with partners, customers, and the public
Contribute to a culture of transparency, accountability, and continuous improvement
Help attract, develop, and retain the diverse, world-class team System needs to succeed
The ideal candidate has:
3+ years of experience in their functional area
Strong communication, problem-solving, and stakeholder management skills
A track record of building or improving systems, processes, or organizations
Comfort operating in ambiguous, fast-moving startup environments
A genuine passion for System's mission and the PBC model
An analytical mindset and familiarity with data-driven decision making
Bonus if you have:
Experience in healthcare, life sciences, or health tech
Background working at a mission-driven, PBC, or B Corp organization
Exposure to complex systems thinking frameworks in a business or organizational context
Experience scaling a startup from early stage through growth
You might be a fit if you:
Think in systems — mapping feedback loops, interdependencies, and second-order effects comes naturally to you
Are motivated by purpose-driven work, particularly at the intersection of technology and healthcare
Believe technology should be a force for good and are drawn to the Public Benefit Corporation model
Hold yourself and your work to a values-first standard, not just a deliverables-first one
Lead with first principles and are comfortable questioning assumptions others take for granted
See complexity as an invitation, not an obstacle — you thrive when problems are messy and interconnected
Care about the downstream effects of what you build — on users, on systems, on society
Operate with intellectual humility — always learning, always open to being wrong
Compensation:
Commensurate with experience and level.
