Compensation Overview

About the role

What’s an average day like?

The clients you’ll work with are exclusively Life Sciences Organizations and Capital Management firms (Venture Capital, Private Equity, or Hedge Funds). These clients are very friendly and enjoyable to work with. 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 problems. All of your teammates 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 primarily entails servicing your client’s technology needs. This time will include working with clients via ticketing systems and phone support, researching solutions, assisting with projects, improving documentation, training users, and responding to ad-hoc requests. You’ll also enjoy catered lunches onsite or meet up with teammates nearby for meals and coffee. You will enjoy time (virtually) working alongside your coworkers, collaborating onsite, and may work from the office. 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, sociable person who loves connecting with the people you support and working in a team environment. 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 look out for your people and they’re grateful for your responsiveness. You enjoy solving business problems through the clever use of emerging technologies, often pioneering the adoption of these tools.
