Technical Sales Engineer Jobs in Boston, MA

About MassArt:

MassArt's Information Technology team is looking for a Senior Ellucian Technical and Integrations Engineer to own the systems that keep the college running ? from the Colleague ERP at its core to the web, CRM, and reporting platforms that students, faculty, and staff rely on every day. You'll design how Ellucian Colleague SaaS connects to everything else, build and maintain Ethos-based integrations and data pipelines, and lead members of the Applications Team as MassArt modernizes its systems, including exploring where AI can streamline integration and reporting work.

This is a senior, high-autonomy role reporting directly to the Director of Core Applications, with real latitude to shape how MassArt's core systems evolve.

Founded in 1873 and celebrating over 150 years, Massachusetts College of Art and Design (MassArt) is the nation's only independent, freestanding public college of art and design. Located in Boston's hub of arts and culture along the Avenue of the Arts, MassArt enrolls about 2,000 students across 18 disciplines. We're an inclusive community of thinkers, doers, makers, educators, and leaders ? and we build technology partnerships the same way, by sharing information openly and supporting one another across teams.
