Looking for a Brighter Future? Join Our Team!

Dyrand Systems believes in being more than just a technology service provider. We want to be a partner to our clients, freeing them from the worries of IT so they can concentrate on the success of their businesses. Our team comes to work every day with that mission in mind, thinking about what they can do to help our clients focus on what they do best. If you’re that kind of person too, we would love to hear from you!

Why join our team?

Dyrand is not like other companies. We work hard, but at the end of the day, it’s about the satisfaction we get in helping our customers run their businesses. Keeping them going, helping them improve what they do, and helping them plan for the future are all things we take great pride in. Some of our employees have been making this happen for almost 20 years. We think that speaks volumes about us as a company.

What makes Dyrand different?

For a start, we have excellent benefits and perks. All Dyrand positions offer:

  • A competitive salary
  • A profit-sharing plan
  • A competitive benefits package fully paid by Dyrand
  • RRSP matching
  • 3 weeks holidays to start; 40 hours sick leave

For technical positions, we also cover the cost of all training materials and exams for your Microsoft certifications.

For on-site employees, our office is conveniently located in central downtown Vancouver minutes away from the Waterfront Station. Our kitchen is always well stocked with light snacks and coffee, and Dyrand employees can enjoy a fully equipped gym in our building for free!

Our culture

A company’s culture can be tough to describe. At Dyrand, the culture can be summed up in one word: teamwork. We work together to provide what our customers need. It’s about being able to rely on your co-workers when you need help, and about stepping in to lend a hand when someone is stuck on a tough problem.

Have your say

Very little is dictated from the ‘top’ down at Dyrand. While we have departments and managers, everyone at Dyrand has a voice in the work they do. If you have a suggestion that can improve how things work, we’d love to hear it! Or if things aren’t going the way you think they should, we want to hear that too. Everyone at Dyrand is considered a part of what makes our company a success.

Work isn’t everything

We all need time outside of work to unwind and recharge, or even just an extra day off every now and then to regroup. Family, friends, and those ‘outside interests’ that are our true passions need our time too. We recognize that work is only a part of our lives, and we encourage and support everyone at Dyrand to find the balance they need.

Our Values

These are the values we believe in and work towards every day.

Accountable – Taking responsibility for your actions, stepping up when necessary, can always be counted on.

Integrity and Trustworthiness – Having a personal quality of fairness, being honest, strong moral principles, being reliable and dependable.

Focus on Long Term Solutions – Looking not just for the quick fix, but truly focused on the bigger picture.

Exceptional Client Experience – Always focused on ensuring an exceptional experience when providing support.

Exceptional Team Player – Caring more about helping the team than individual success. Always reliable, always steps in when needed.

Exceptional Quality of Work – Always provides the best possible quality of work — we sweat the small stuff.
