The California coast to the west. San Francisco and the wine country to the north. Monterey Bay to the south. Lake Tahoe’s 15 alpine ski resorts to the east. Some of the world's greatest universities, all within an hour’s drive. And Microsoft Silicon Valley—centered in Mountain View—is right in the middle of it all.

Many of us came from other local startups and tech heavyweights. Some have even founded a company or two. We joined Microsoft Silicon Valley because we wanted to work for a company with the resources and financial muscle to help our visions become reality. And that really happens here.
