Fundação Faculdade de Medicina operates as a private nonprofit supporting teaching, research, and clinical services across USP's medical school and affiliated hospital complex. The organization is scaling rapidly—30 new roles posted in the last 30 days across a 50-person hiring pipeline—with healthcare staff comprising two-thirds of open positions. Core pain points center on financial and operational controls: budget alignment, study cost management, procurement delays, and protocol compliance monitoring suggest a maturing research enterprise struggling to scale administrative systems alongside clinical volume.

Founded in 1986 by alumni of USP's medical school, Fundação Faculdade de Medicina operates as a private nonprofit supporting three pillars: medical education, research advancement, and clinical care delivery. The foundation enables USP's Faculty of Medicine and its teaching hospital (Hospital das Clínicas) to conduct research, manage patient services, and run educational programs. With over 10,000 employees across Brazil, the organization manages active research projects in areas including dysphagia and clinical trial patient enrollment, supported by digital library infrastructure and bibliographic databases. Financial and operational management challenges—supplier performance, inventory control, budget forecasting, and protocol compliance—indicate rapid scaling of research volume outpacing administrative tooling.
Primary stack includes PACS (medical imaging), Microsoft 365, Salesforce, Power BI, PubMed, Web of Science, Mendeley, EndNote, and Adobe Creative Suite (Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign). WordPress supports web presence and Gmail handles email.
Current projects span research (dysphagia studies, clinical trial patient recruitment), digital library implementation, bibliographic search strategies, nutrition education programs, and operational improvements including inventory management and financial reporting systems.
