Full Job Description
As a researcher at System, you will:
  • Develop and validate novel methods for modeling complex, interconnected systems
  • Work at the intersection of graph theory, machine learning, and domain-specific knowledge
  • Collaborate with Data Science and Engineering to transition research findings into production
  • Publish and present findings that advance both the field and System's mission
  • Partner with clinical and domain experts to ground research in real-world impact
  • Contribute to a culture of intellectual rigor, curiosity, and continuous learning
The ideal candidate has:
  • Master's or PhD in Computer Science, Statistics, Biomedical Informatics, or a related field
  • A strong publication record or equivalent applied research experience
  • Deep expertise in machine learning, statistical modeling, or computational methods
  • Experience working with complex, heterogeneous, or graph-structured data
  • Ability to communicate research findings clearly to both technical and non-technical audiences
  • Comfort operating in a fast-paced startup environment alongside a long research horizon
Bonus if you have:
  • Experience with clinical NLP, EHR data, or healthcare ontologies (SNOMED, ICD, OMOP)
  • Familiarity with knowledge graphs, semantic web technologies, or ontology engineering
  • Background in causal inference, systems dynamics, or complex adaptive systems
  • Experience collaborating with clinicians, policymakers, or public health researchers
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.
