Why Riverbed Technology
- A ready-made avenue for any engineer to innovate toward a new product or feature. You can bypass traditional processes where only high-level architects or product managers can influence products, giving you a forum where your ideas can be heard and considered.
- Supports engineers learning how to evaluate the business aspects of product and feature decisions. If you ever dream of someday starting your own company, this is a must-have skill.
- Finalists are supported with budget and company resources (engineers, tools, processes, equipment and software) to develop a prototype. Normally one would have to fight against organizational resistance to get ideas heard, and probably build a prototype on one’s own without company support, but not at Riverbed. We encourage personal development and career growth.
