We’re excited about what’s next, and we’re looking for others to join us on our journey. We’re looking for a Senior IT Systems Engineer to design, build, and improve the internal systems that support our growing business. Working alongside our Staff Systems Engineer, you’ll own automation, integrations, and enterprise platform improvements that make our environment more secure, reliable, and scalable. You’ll partner with IT Operations to turn recurring support issues into durable solutions and work with Security and Internal Automation to help employees build and use technology safely. This is a hands-on engineering role focused on improving systems and processes, rather than primarily managing day-to-day support tickets or office technology. You’ll work across a broad technology environment, make thoughtful technical decisions, and take projects from discovery through implementation and operational handoff. You’ll report to our Boston-based IT Manager. This is a US-based role, with a preference for candidates in the Eastern Time Zone to support close collaboration with our Boston-based IT Manager and Staff Systems Engineer. Boston-area candidates would also have opportunities to collaborate in person. Working arrangements will be discussed during the interview process. What you’ll be doing Own the administration and improvement of enterprise platforms, including Google Workspace, Slack, Jira, AWS, and other core IT systems. Review configurations, access, and capabilities to improve security and usability. Design, build, test, document, and maintain automated workflows and integrations that reduce manual work and enable reliable employee self-service.

Strong troubleshooting skills, including using logs and command-line tools to investigate complex issues, identify root causes, and implement durable improvements. Sound judgment around access controls, data security, testing, change management, and rollback, with an understanding of build-versus-buy trade-offs and ongoing maintenance. Experience independently delivering technical projects, managing competing priorities, and communicating clearly with engineers, operational teams, and business stakeholders. Experience that will help you succeed Previous experience with Tines, GCP, regulated environments, CMMC, FedRAMP, or Microsoft 365 GCC High is helpful but not required. Experience supporting secure enterprise AI adoption or preparing systems documentation for compliance requirements is also valuable. We’re looking for a capable systems engineer who can learn our environment and contribute to its development, rather than someone who has already used every platform in our stack. Why join Tines now? You’ll have the opportunity to use Tines to improve how Tines itself works. As our business grows, you’ll help shape the systems, automations, and practices that support employees across the company. For someone who enjoys building practical solutions, partnering closely with other engineers, and seeing the impact of their work, this role offers meaningful ownership and room to grow.

Titanium Software Engineer You’ll join the team primarily responsible for scaling the throughput and performance of the backend job processing system and code execution engines that power Tines’ intelligent workflows. However, since we’re still a small but growing software engineering organization, this role is not strictly limited to any single part of our product or stack. This role is about more than writing code: you'll have an influential voice in shaping our technical direction, our product, and our culture. We have a hugely supportive and collaborative engineering team that takes great pride in the work we do and the challenges we solve. We’re eager to help grow and nurture each other’s abilities and also create an environment where we have the ability to do our very best work. Location: You can work fully remotely from anywhere in an EST state with a preference for being based in the Greater Boston Area area. Here, you can make use of our Tines office space in downtown Boston to meet up with other members of the MA engineering team when you wish. In this role, you’ll: Influence the technical direction for some of Tines’ most critical systems. Make valuable changes in our codebase in your first week, and see them live in production minutes after merging them. Shape how jobs and code are executed at the very heart of our application, to help us power the world’s most important workflows. Write and review high-quality, well-tested code to ensure that we’re creating a stable product for our customers, and a stress-free codebase for ourselves. Identify areas for improvement, both in our codebase and in how we work, and share the responsibility of making our team better.

Container runtimes, orchestration, or code execution platforms. Filesystem and file storage, including POSIX behavior, content-addressed storage, and crash recovery. Low-level system primitives in Rust or Go. Debugging: building focused reproducers for kernel, runtime, and storage issues, and using logs, traces, metrics, and tests to isolate root causes. Your abilities matter, not your education or exactly where you’ve worked. We just need you to show us that you have accumulated the foundational skills and knowledge needed to succeed. This role is broad, not specialized. While your main focus will be on our backend job processing system and code execution engines, you’ll work across our stack, from infrastructure changes to the frontend. You don’t need to have experience in all of these areas, but you will need to be excited to pitch in anywhere when needed, with the support of your teammates. This allows us to be more effective as a team, and provides a lot of opportunities for you to learn. We’re focused on the most important problems, not the most interesting ones. Your time and energy are limited, so in order to succeed you’ll need to spend it where it will make a difference.
