Strong organizational and communication skills, with sound judgment and attention to detail. Independent, proactive work style with a high level of professionalism. Introduce yourself to our recruiters and we'll get in touch if there's a role that seems like a good match. 1974 We are riders—that fact has guided our every decision since 1974. When quality tires weren't around, we strove to make the best. When people wanted to ride cruisers in the dirt, we made the first production mountain bike. When roadies wanted to go faster, we doubled-down on carbon and built our own wind tunnel. And when we saw kids struggling to focus in school, we began supporting Outride to help promote better health through cycling. Specialized. Made for riders, by riders.
