Company mission
To operate the world’s most advanced Responsive Acquisition Marketing Platform (RAMP).
43% employee growth in 12 months
Our take
Over the last five years, advertising companies wanting to mine data to better target potential customers have come to loggerheads with online privacy debates, resulting in a swathe of tech companies curating services that appease both sides of the coin. System1 operates a Responsive Acquisition Marketing Platform (RAMP), meaning technology that finds potential customers for companies who are already aware of the brand and therefore more likely to follow through on a purchase.
Prior to going public in 2022 through a merger with Protected.net, a digital subscription service, System1 used its RAMP to advertise its own digital products, many of which were the result of buying out other companies such as MapQuest and CarsGenius, a used car sales company. System1 effectively created its own customer acquisition ecosystem through social media advertising for its own company purchases.
Since going public, System1 has continued its trajectory of acquisitions for the purposes of snowballing its RAMP software, proving that its seizure of a digital loophole continues to be lucrative.

We are a small team maintaining a browser fork so you have full exposure to every part of the SDLC. We control everything from building the browser, adding new features, serving updates, developing the website and landing pages, enabling marketing campaigns and analysing the impact of those campaigns. You really do have to get stuck into every aspect of development, and if there is something you are particularly interested in you can have full control over that.

Challenging work
Feb 2022
I've never worked for a company that cares about flexibility so much. As long as the work that needs doing gets done then it doesn't really matter what time of day you open or close your laptop. You'll never be made to feel uncomfortable about asking for time off at short notice for things like doctors appointments or unforeseen circumstances. It really is people first.

System1 likes to hire smart people. This leads to a significant amount of trust in employees to just get things done. You get guidance when required but generally how you achieve something is up to you. You want to try out some new technology? Go for it. You think there is a better way to achieve something that's already being done? Test it out.
