Hi there!

We're looking for a Sr. IT Systems Engineer to join our team. Zapier is on a mission to make everyone more productive at work. Zapier has helped millions of people build businesses through the power of automation.

This is an exciting role at Zapier in a growing team, and you will play a direct role in implementing and improving Zapier's IT infrastructure. Working closely with our Engineering, People Ops, and Security Teams you will implement, manage, automate, and support the tools and services that power a globally distributed engineering team.

We believe that a good IT experience is a perk, it keeps people productive and engaged rather than getting in the way. You will help to maintain a world-class Mac experience for our employees and streamline access management by implementing SSO applications and automating processes. You will help scale our IT infrastructure and processes to the next level as a service owner, and you will be crucial to its success as Zapier grows. This isn't an IT Helpdesk job, but assisting and providing great customer service for Zapier’s IT needs is part of the role.

Zapier Compensation Guiding Principles

We believe all Zapiens should be rewarded competitively and equitably, using practices that are simple and transparent. This philosophy ensures we’re able to find, grow, and retain exceptional people from a broad range of backgrounds. Here’s how we define our compensation principles:

  • Competitive: Zapier pays well among the technology sector.

  • Equitable: Consistent pay practices; competency-based pay.

  • Simple: Pay is well understood, and pay practices are built for scale.

  • Transparent: Zapiens know how pay works, including how their pay is determined.

The pay ranges for this role are:

United States: 125,800 - 188,600 USD

Canada: 125,800 - 188,600 CAD

United Kingdom: 71,800 - 107,600 GBP

A Candidate's compensation package is finalized once the interview process is concluded and accounts for experience, competencies (job knowledge, skills and abilities) and internal equity. We use a competency-based approach to base pay, which means we set pay for all Zapier employees based on their competency and skills demonstrated in their role. In alignment with that philosophy, the upper half of a pay range is typically reserved for individuals who have consistently demonstrated a high level of job knowledge and skills for their current role and level while at Zapier.

How to Apply

At Zapier, we believe that diverse perspectives and experiences make us better, which is why we have a non-standard application process designed to promote inclusion and equity. We're looking for the best fit for each of our roles, regardless of the type of education or companies in your background, so we encourage you to apply even if your skills and experiences don’t exactly match the job description. All we ask is that you answer a few in-depth questions in our application that would typically be asked at the start of an interview process. This helps speed things up by letting us get to know you and your skillset a bit better right out of the gate. Please be sure to answer each question; the resume and CV fields are optional.

After you apply, you are going to hear back from us—even if we don’t see an immediate fit with our team. In fact, throughout the process, we strive to never go more than seven days without letting you know the status of your application. We know we’ll make mistakes from time to time, so if you ever have questions about where you stand or about the process, just ask your recruiter!

Zapier is an equal-opportunity employer and we're excited to work with talented and empathetic people of all identities. Zapier does not discriminate based on someone's identity in any aspect of hiring or employment as required by law and in line with our commitment to Diversity, Inclusion, Belonging and Equity. Our code of conduct [7] provides a beacon for the kind of company we strive to be, and we celebrate our differences because those differences are what allow us to make a product that serves a global user base.

Zapier is committed to inclusion. As part of this commitment, Zapier welcomes applications from individuals with disabilities and will work to provide reasonable accommodations. If reasonable accommodations are needed to participate in the job application or interview process, please contact jobs@zapier.com.

Even though we’re an all-remote company, we still need to be thoughtful about where we have Zapiens working. Check out this resource [8] for a list of countries where we currently cannot have Zapiens permanently working.
