I'm curious, what's the reason for you to move toward more system-oriented work? Is it because you're looking for a way of career progression?

If so, I'd suggest you have some in-depth conversation with your manager and your mentor (if you have one), to identify area of skill developments for you, and opportunities for "learning on the job". And if your current situation/management won't afford you that opportunity, you should focus on finding a new job, which should be fitting for your current skill set, but with clear space for doing something more.
