BenchSci is looking for a Senior Systems Administrator who combines strong technical depth

with a genuine passion for delivering a great employee technology experience. You’ll help

design, improve, and secure the systems that support our global workforce, and take equal

pride in ensuring they're reliable and practical for people to use every day.

This role is well-suited for someone who is ready to take on broader technical ownership while

continuing to deepen their architectural and leadership skills. You’ll partner closely with IT

leadership and the business to scale our evolving environment thoughtfully while remaining

visible, approachable, and engaged in day-to-day support where it matters most.

This is a hands-on senior role for someone who enjoys solving complex technical problems,

improving systems at scale, and showing up for employees when they need help.

We are welcoming applicants in the GTA for this position. Please note that this role will require a

minimum of 2 days in-office at BenchSci’s Toronto headquarters office, with some flexibility

required based on business needs.

BenchSci is an AI-first organization, and this mindset shapes how we build systems, solve

problems, and scale our operations. Within IT, we actively use AI to improve diagnostics,

automate workflows, enhance documentation, and make better technical decisions faster.

In this role, you’ll be expected to thoughtfully leverage AI tools as part of your daily work, from

troubleshooting and scripting to system design and process improvement, and to help identify

new ways AI can improve reliability, service quality, and employee experience across our

environment.

We’re not just experimenting with AI; we’re operationalizing it. Candidates who are curious,

pragmatic, and excited about using AI to level up how IT works will thrive here.
