Colorado's tech scene runs on two things: aerospace and a Denver-Boulder startup corridor that keeps pulling talent from the coasts. Crusoe is building AI data centers here, Sierra Space and Boom are chasing the sky, and Gusto, Ibotta, and Fivetran anchor the software side. The lifestyle draw is real, and it shows in how fast the engineering pool has grown.

Where Colorado’s tech talent studies

CU Boulder is the engine, producing founders from Chipotle's Steve Ells to Cardano's Charles Hoskinson, and its engineering program feeds the Boulder startup scene directly. Colorado School of Mines turns out the hard-science and energy engineers, and the University of Denver adds a business pipeline that produced UPS's Carol Tomé and Network Solutions' founder.

FAQ

Tech jobs in Colorado: common questions

How many tech jobs are open in Colorado right now?

There are about 1,319 open tech roles in Colorado on Feeny, from roughly 281 companies hiring right now. These come from live company career pages, so a listing is a job someone is currently trying to fill rather than a recycled aggregator entry. The bulk sits along the Denver-to-Boulder corridor, with aerospace work adding a second cluster. Filter by city or role to focus the list.

Which Colorado cities have the most tech jobs?

Denver and Boulder anchor the state, close enough together to feel like one talent market. Denver carries the larger software base, while Boulder punches above its size on startups and R&D. Colorado Springs and Broomfield add aerospace and enterprise roles. Across the 4 Colorado cities we index, the Denver-Boulder pair is where the openings pile up.

What companies are hiring for tech roles in Colorado?

Software runs deep here: Gusto, Ibotta, and Fivetran all built real businesses along the Denver-Boulder corridor and hire steadily. Aerospace is the other engine, with Sierra Space and Boom Supersonic chasing hard problems in flight. Crusoe is building AI data centers in the state, which is its own kind of infrastructure bet. Feeny lists roles from about 281 companies statewide, so scan the current set to see who's active.

What kinds of tech roles are common in Colorado?

The state runs on two engines. One is aerospace, where Sierra Space, Boom, and a wider defense-and-space base need serious hardware and systems engineers. The other is the Denver-Boulder software corridor, which pulls product, backend, and data talent off the coasts with companies like Gusto and Fivetran. Crusoe's AI data center work adds infrastructure and hardware roles on top.

What is it like to work in tech in Colorado?

The lifestyle pull is real and not marketing: mountains an hour from your desk change how people weigh a job here. Cost of living runs about 5 percent above the national average, though Denver and Boulder housing is the pressure point and has climbed with all the coastal transplants. The scene mixes deep aerospace engineering with a coast-flavored startup corridor, so you can find either register. The honest trade is that Boulder in particular is not cheap anymore.
