    Technical Developer, Apparel - Denver, United States - The North Face

    Default job background
    Description
    Join the North Face Family

    The North Face was built on a love for the outdoors and the desire to enable all types of exploration, for all people, from their backyards to the Himalayas. Over the last 50 years we've lived by our "true north," the belief that exploration has the power to change us, to challenge us and to help us see the world from new perspectives. To help ignite a global movement of outdoor exploration, love for the natural world and an unwavering commitment to protect it, we welcome and encourage new participants to the outdoors. We extend our reach through support of non-profit organizations, establishing programs that connect participants with close-to-home recreation opportunities, and creating a connection with young leaders, inspiring them to explore and conserve.

    As we enter our sixth decade, we pledge to:
    • Empower exploration and the thrill of the unknown for as many people as possible.
    • Protect the places where we live, play, and operate.
    • Evolve the way we make our products by improving our environmental performance and social responsibility in the supply chain.
