Want to live, work, and play in a stunning community surrounded by mountains and more outdoor sports than you can imagine? Telluride Colorado offers that opportunity for engineers. Skin the mountain before work begins, never miss a powder day, and most of all — make an impact on a tight-knit community through your work.
Whether you work out of an office based in Telluride, or you find yourself based in this mountain community while working remotely, there’s a job out here for you.
Remote Engineering Jobs in Telluride
Since Telluride is a fairly remote location, it can be hard to find a local office. In addition, the high cost of living may make you want to run for the hills. If your heart is set on living here, a remote job may be the best option. These jobs often include generous pay and benefits as well.
Some of these jobs are entirely remote, allowing you to work from your own home. Others will hire for ongoing projects within the greater Telluride area, and these will still require site visits and other local collaboration.
Telluride Organizations that are Hiring
While Telluride is a small town, there are some organizations based in the area that are consistently looking for in-house engineers.

Within commuting distance of Telluride, the County of Montrose offers engineering roles in-house. While San Miguel County where Telluride is located doesn’t have any jobs listed at the time of posting, it never hurts to check back!

Working Remotely for RFE in Telluride
One of the best benefits we can offer our employees is the ability to enjoy all the outdoor activities Telluride has to offer. When you work in a mountain community, we want you to also be able to enjoy the mountain community. We offer a flexible schedule so you can take advantage of the weather, whether it’s to hit the slopes on a perfect powder day, hike a 14er, or whitewater raft down the river.
We also still prioritize competitive pay and opportunities for growth. While you may be working remotely, you certainly won’t be isolated. One of our core values is strong teamwork, and that carries through to our remote teams as well. Plus, we go heli-skiing once a year, so at least we can all be isolated together!
