About EOTSS and the Massachusetts Digital Service:


The Executive Office of Technology Services and Security (EOTSS) is the state’s lead office for information technology. We provide enterprise level information technology services and infrastructure, including network management and security; computer operations; application hosting; desktop provisioning and management; and modern and responsive digital services to 40,000 internal stakeholders plus the residents, business owners and visitors to the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.


The Massachusetts Digital Service, a division of EOTSS, partners with organizations across state government to transform how residents, visitors, businesses, and government agencies interact with the Commonwealth. Our mission is to design and deliver accessible/inclusive, seamless, effective, and secure digitally enabled end-to-end experiences that adapt to a person’s needs, so that every time they engage with any part of their government, they're getting the most and best of the Commonwealth.


Mass Digital has established its track record of delivery through recent work with the Department of Family and Medical Leave (DFML) and during the COVID-19 pandemic. We helped DFML launch the Commonwealth’s first digitally native service, Paid Family and Medical Leave and PaidLeave.mass.gov. During the pandemic, we supported the Department of Unemployment Assistance in expanding their capacity to process unemployment claims in multiple languages and designed content for rapidly evolving pandemic unemployment benefits. We also supported the Department of Public Health and Command Center in launching and operating the state’s vaccine preregistration system.


We’ve now turned our attention to implementing a vision of statewide digital experiences that are more accessible, inclusive, streamlined, and secure: the Commonwealth Digital Roadmap. Our roadmap calls for transforming state services so that they meet the diverse needs of the people we serve. We’ll achieve this through initiatives to create a single identity and profile for users of Commonwealth services, expand and harmonize channels of communication, and improve people’s holistic journeys and integrated experiences across different state services. We are designing and developing new products and services, establishing new policies and standards, and building capacity within agencies. To make this vision a reality, we are expanding our Experience Design and Research Team.

The Commonwealth is an Equal Opportunity Employer and does not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, color, sex, gender identity or expression, sexual orientation, age, disability, national origin, veteran status, or any other basis covered by appropriate law. Research suggests that qualified women, Black, Indigenous, and Persons of Color (BIPOC) may self-select out of opportunities if they don't meet 100% of the job requirements. We encourage individuals who believe they have the skills necessary to thrive to apply for this role.
