You will contribute to and/or lead workstreams across a variety of commercial strategy projects, supporting market assessments, launch readiness, brand strategy, customer engagement, competitive intelligence, and other core commercial areas.

Who We Are:

17A is a new type of management consulting firm. We come from places like McKinsey, Palantir, JP Morgan Philanthropies, and venture-backed Healthcare startups. We share a common goal: improving the quality of government and social services. 17A believes that trust in government is something to be continuously built and earned, through strong service delivery.

We have a dynamic core team, and partner with Consultants, known internally as Project-Based Team Members, to bring the best combination of expertise to what we do. Our team has varied skills from a range of industries and experiences, including management consulting, technology and analytics, and public service. If you've spent the early part of your career in consulting or a fast-paced analytical environment and you're ready to apply those skills to something with direct civic impact, 17A is for you.

The Opportunity:

17A is supporting a large Bay Area county agency on a technology and digital services transformation effort. This is a fully embedded, on-site role — not parachuting in. You'll work inside the agency's digital innovation team, sitting alongside Deputy-level leadership to help the county deliver on its mission to make government more human, more responsive, and more digital. This position is a contract role with the potential to convert to full-time after a few months.

This agency has taken a distinctive approach to transformation: rather than buying expensive new systems and hoping for the best, it's doing the hard, human-centered work of dismantling bureaucracy, redesigning how services are delivered, and building a digital culture from the inside. A core initiative — which brings departments through rapid, structured sprints to identify and address service delivery friction — will be a major focus of this role.

This is a chief-of-staff style position for a sharp, early-career operator ready to take on real ownership. You'll help senior leaders turn strategy into action — managing complex initiatives across departments, facilitating working sessions, and communicating progress clearly to executive and operational audiences.

What You'll Do

• Serve in a chief-of-staff capacity to Deputy-level leaders within the innovation team, helping translate priorities into structured plans and concrete next steps
• Support coordination and execution of digital transformation sprints, including logistics, stakeholder engagement, documentation, and follow-through on recommendations
• Facilitate working sessions with department staff and senior leaders to map current-state processes, identify friction points, and co-design improvements
• Lead and coordinate cross-functional workstreams, tracking progress, surfacing blockers, and keeping stakeholders aligned across a large, multi-department organization
• Prepare executive-level communications including briefings, memos, presentations, and decision documents for senior agency leadership
• Conduct rapid research and analysis to support emerging decisions and evolving priorities
• Help build the internal documentation, playbooks, and operational systems the innovation team needs to scale its impact countywide
• Operate as a collaborative, low-ego team member who is genuinely embedded in the agency's culture and mission

Who You Are

You're 1–2 years into your career and you're looking for a role where you can do meaningful work and see the results directly. You might be a current or former:

• Business Analyst or Associate at a management consulting firm
• Fellow or analyst at a public sector-focused organization (e.g., a government innovation lab, a civic tech organization, or a public agency)
• Analyst in a fast-paced, mission-driven environment where you built strong project management and communication muscles

The Skillset:

You'll thrive in this role if you:

• Are energized by the mission — you genuinely care about improving how government works and the people it serves
• Are comfortable operating with ambiguity and building structure where there isn't any yet
• Have strong project management instincts and can keep multiple workstreams moving simultaneously
• Can communicate clearly and credibly with both frontline staff and senior leaders
• Understand that real transformation requires engineering culture, not just deploying technology
• Are ready to be embedded — not just advisory — and want to see the direct impact of your work
• Are based in or willing to relocate to the Bay Area

Bonus if you have:

• Familiarity with local or county government operations
• Experience with digital services, human-centered design, or service delivery improvement
• Prior exposure to process redesign, organizational change, or operational improvement
• Interest in civic technology and the future of public service delivery

Location:

This position is based out of San Francisco, California and you must reside within the area. If you are interested in remote-only opportunities, please consider joining our Network for future roles.

Compensation:

Due to the nature of our business and the clients that we partner with, compensation for this position (and all of our opportunities) depends on the skillset, tenure, and experience that you possess. This specific position has a range of 90,000- 110,000 annually. Depending on the type of work you do with us, you may be eligible to receive medical benefits and other perks.

Accommodation Statement:

Improving public service delivery requires a team with diverse backgrounds and perspectives. We are an equal opportunity employer committed to diversity and inclusion. We prohibit discrimination and harassment of any kind based race, color, creed, religion, national origin, sex, gender identity, sexual orientation, disability, age, marital status, familial status, pregnancy or pregnancy-related conditions, domestic violence victim status, prior arrest or conviction record, military status, predisposing genetic characteristics, membership or activity in a local human rights commission, or status with regard to public assistance.

We encourage and welcome applicants who identify with groups traditionally underrepresented in government to apply.
