MIT is not only a world-renowned university, but employs more than 12,000 people working in a wide range of positions. If you want to be part of a mission-driven organization—making the world a better place—explore our opportunities.
We are looking for people who value excellence, diversity, collaboration, and creativity. Why not join a workplace that engages its employees to reach their full potential?
I came here through a program that re-trains mature workers. You feel such a sense of community here, and you can re-invent yourself many times. At MIT, there’s a whole world here.
I arrived here a soldier and I’m a veteran now and a strong veterans' advocate. What I like most about working at MIT is the commitment level and passion of everyone here. You don’t have to be a PHD or a rocket scientist to contribute here.
I like how you can have a lot of autonomy here. The innovative spirit of our faculty flows over into our everyday work. One of my colleagues has a lifetime goal of curing cancer – and at MIT, you can imagine that may actually be possible.
I love the diversity of MIT. I like that there are so many walks of life. You are dealing with the top minds in the world, and being able to exchange dialogue with them is really cool.
It’s more than just an employer, it’s a community. When someone says they’ve been here 25 years, it’s not like 25 years at a corporate organization, because you might have had five completely different careers here.
What I like about working at MIT is that it’s an opportunity to put puzzles together. If you like to work hard and you want to contribute, you can do that here.
MIT is more than a school. If you want to be a part of something big, this is the place.
MIT has been at the forefront of flexibility for parents. Because this is a 24/7 community, with students and families living here, it’s not just an employer. Your family becomes part of the MIT family.
In my role there’s something new to do every single day. The senior leadership here treats people with respect, people here are willing to share their knowledge, and they’re experts in what they do.
