South San Francisco, United States Pliancy Full time
About us

Pliancy is fundamentally changing the way businesses value technology by empowering the next evolution of IT leadership. We provide high-touch consulting solutions to life science and finance organizations. Our employees and clients find that we're starkly different from other IT organizations because we challenge the status quo in two major ways: by putting people first in every decision we make, and by innovating towards simplicity and sustainability. Whether streamlining a client's race to a cancer cure or securing the fine details of data integrity, we're driven to help people.

And as a people-first company that invests in the long-term success of our employees, we're looking for creative thinkers who like to solve interesting problems. We have a culture of mentorship and prioritize curiosity and empathy in all of our hiring decisions.

About the role

What's an average day like?

The clients you'll work with are exclusively Life Sciences Organizations. Pliancy prides itself on working with clients who respect our team and expertise. You're treated as one of their own, not as an outside individual. You'll get to collaborate with teammates to solve interesting, important challenges, all of whom have a passion for technology and helping people. If you love innovating, building relationships, and socializing with fellow team members, you'll love our culture.

A typical week is M-F 8:30 am - 3:00 pm on-site at the client located in South San Francisco. You'll effectively be researching solutions, implementing projects, using technology to improve processes and workflows, improving documentation, training users, and responding to ad-hoc requests. When not scheduled at your clients' sites, you may drop in at the local office to collaborate with a coworker on pending issues. The remainder of the time is spent with the team on internal solutions, special projects, ticket escalations, and learning new technologies.

Who are we looking for?

You're an attentive, curious person who loves connecting with people and values the importance of creating relationships with the people you support. To you, clients are people, not cases to solve - you build relationships, and as a by-product, you build trust. Few things make you feel better at the end of a workday than helping your team work swiftly and efficiently toward a common goal. You are skilled at using your professional experience to solve problems and implement them with your clients. You look out for your people and they're grateful for your responsiveness.
