What we see in Massachusetts right now

  • Sales is the biggest group (43% of Massachusetts listings), followed by marketing and project management.
  • Most Boston roles are on-site or hybrid. Only 11 Massachusetts listings are marked remote.
  • Many postings name Boston as one of several office cities, so read where the team actually sits.

Remote roles widen your options

Many roles listed as "Remote - US" are open to Massachusetts residents. Some remote roles are limited to specific states, so check each posting's location line. Browse all remote roles from the links below.

Your teacher retirement benefits

Leaving the classroom can affect your pension and service credit. Rules are set by the Massachusetts Teachers' Retirement System (MTRS) or, for Boston Public Schools teachers, the Boston Retirement System, not by employers or by us. Check your options directly at mtrs.state.ma.us or www.boston.gov/departments/retirement before you resign. This page isn't financial or retirement advice.

Tips for a local search

  • Search metro names as well as the state, because postings often list only the city.
  • Hybrid roles usually expect you near an office for a few days a week.
  • Local edtech companies, universities and nonprofits are worth checking directly, alongside the listings here.
  • Watch for scams: real employers don't ask you to pay for equipment, training or a background check up front, and they don't run the whole interview over a chat app.
