A small market

Denver has a few FDE employers, not many

An FDE is a software engineer who works inside the customer's team until the system is live. Few companies base that work in Colorado.

Databricks lists Denver for its retail FDE role and for a media and gaming FDE role. Scale AI names Colorado Springs as one of the locations for its public sector FDSE role, which asks for TS/SCI or eligibility.

Beyond that, Colorado engineers mostly apply to remote roles. See the remote page for those.

Tell us the role and the hours. We send you a shortlist of people who fit.

Patterns

FDE work from Colorado in practice

  • Remote does the heavy lifting Most options for Colorado engineers are remote roles listed by country, not by city.
  • Colorado Springs is defence Scale AI lists Colorado Springs for a cleared public sector FDSE role.
  • Industry teams in Denver Databricks lists Denver for retail and for media and gaming FDE roles.

Denver teams rarely find FDEs locally

Hiring on shared working hours, not location, widens the pool. A Colorado team can bring in an engineer who works inside its tools, with time on site if needed.
