Engineering at Jive
We're changing the way that work gets done at companies by building the most advanced social business software in the world. Engineering challenges abound as we deliver on this mission, whether it's incorporating the latest social software innovations, leveraging advancements in the cloud, addressing enterprise scale, security, and data concerns, or finding novel ways of blending smart algorithms with amazing user experience. In the end it is all about enriching millions of people's lives by building amazing software.
Locations
We're all part of one team at Jive that just happens to be in three physical locations. All sport kegerators, snacks/beverages, transportation credits (with a bonus for biking or taking public transit), and cameraderie.
Boulder, CO
Sitting at the base of the Flatirons, and in the heart of the Pearl Street Mall, our Boulder office is the newest addition to the Jive ecosystem. Ditch your car and ride a bike to work, with easy access to some of the country's best skiing, hiking, mountain-biking -- and geeking out (we're plugged into the thriving local tech and startup scene).
Palo Alto, CA
Palo Alto is ground zero for social software. The office is located in the heart of it—a couple of blocks from University Ave. and a quick walk to Caltrain. Great lunch spots and after work watering holes round out the picture. Because it's a relatively new office, you'll play a leading role in establishing Palo Alto as a major hub of engineering for Jive.
Portland, OR
Located just steps from Powell's Books, the Pearl District and the MAX train, the Jive Portland office is located in the best spot in the city. We're in the historic Federal Reserve building, complete with bank vaults and a shooting-range-turned-bike-storage. The Jive Portland office is a frequent host to Portland tech group events.

Work Hard, Play Hard
Want to join us on the Jive Engineering team? We take enormous pride and pleasure in building a product that is literally changing the face of enterprise software. As a small team, we revel in achieving what most large teams would call impossible. We pull out all the stops to deliver amazing software releases, including our Summer Bug Hunt where Jivers from all over the company joined engineering to stay late for dinner and bug fixing. And when we do achieve our goals, we celebrate. There are epic release parties as well as laid-back samplings of local brews from the keg. We love working with one another and in an environment that stretches our talents to the limits. Because while it's absolutely all about the end product, it's also about the journey.
