There are 598 engineering openings in Massachusetts. Employers added at least 131 new engineering postings in Massachusetts in the past week — an unusually active market, with a fifth or more of all listings arriving in the last seven days.

Hiring is concentrated: State Street alone accounts for roughly 17% of open roles, with Anduril Industries and SharkNinja next in line. Boston has the deepest pool (240 openings), followed by Quincy (67) and Burlington (41). Of postings that specify a schedule, 100% are full-time. 23 listings are remote-eligible — a small slice (4%) of the market.

Posted pay in Massachusetts runs below the national mix for engineering work: 71% of salaried postings here advertise $100K or more, versus 76% nationwide. The median posted salary is about $125,000 here, compared with roughly $133,000 across all states.

For context beyond current listings: the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics estimates the average annual wage for architecture and engineering occupations in Massachusetts at $117,000 (median $106,000) as of May 2025. Posted salaries on new openings here currently run above that benchmark. Source: BLS Occupational Employment and Wage Statistics.
