One
of the things that draws a lot of people to tech is its potential for
flexibility. Since many tech jobs can be done from anywhere you have
wifi and an outlet, having tech skills opens up possibilities like
working from home full-time, making a living from
freelancing, or even becoming a digital nomad.
Of course, having the skills is only one part of the
equation—actually finding the jobs is the other part, and it's sometimes
easier said than done. If you're looking to weed out the contract work
and focus on finding a long-term position with a single company, ditch
the freelancer sites and start by browsing these 11 job websites that
feature remote tech jobs.
1. Stack Overflow
Topping the list is Stack Overflow, for the simple reasons that (A)
tech is literally all they do, and (B) you don't have to sign up or pay
anything to apply for jobs. If you're a developer, you're probably
already familiar with Stack Overflow, but may not have known that they
offered a jobs board. You'll have the most luck on this board if you're a
developer or engineer.
2. Dribbble Jobs
If you're a designer of any kind, Dribbble Jobs is your remote jobs
holy grail. They have an entire category dedicated to "Remote/Anywhere"
jobs for designers, including UX/UI, product design, graphic design, and
other specialties.
3. Working Nomads
Want some of the job search work done for you? Working Nomads sends
daily or weekly emails with a curated list of remote jobs. Simply sign
up for job alerts, check off the categories that interest you (some are
design, development, and system administration), and they'll start
delivering jobs newsletters.
4. Skip the Drive
Find a job on Skip the Drive and you'll get to be smug while your
friends complain about their commutes. The website functions as a sort
of automatic jobs board search engine, scanning other job sites for
listings that match your category keyword (e.g. "development") and also
refer to remote work/telecommuting. Select a job from the Skip the Drive
list and you'll be taken to that other site, where you can apply.
Because it scans so many other boards, you won't miss much if you check
here frequently. However, the keyword system isn't always perfect, and
you may have to wade through some unrelated jobs or "partial"
telecommute ones.
5. We Work Remotely
The tech-related categories at We Work Remotely are programming,
DevOps & sysadmin, and design (they also have non-tech categories
like customer support). The site is worth a daily check, but it's not
like the bigger remote jobs sites where refreshing after 10 minutes will
make new jobs show up—expect to see around 1-5 jobs a day posted in
your category here.
6. FlexJobs
With 50+ job categories, FlexJobs definitely doesn't
only
offer jobs in tech, but it's one of the biggest job sites out there with
remote work opportunities. They screen each posting so you can be
confident they're legitimate, and currently there are over 30,000 total
positions listed on the website. The only catch? You have to pay to
play. Fees start at $15/mo or $50/y, and you'll only be able to see a
job's full details and apply when you're a member.
7. Jobspresso
All the jobs here are remote, and they're well-curated by the
Jobspresso team. Developers, designers, DevOps, and UX specialists will
find the most success job-hunting here, and you don't have to create an
account to get the info for applying to jobs.
8. PowerToFly
Women in tech often feel like it's a man's world, but that's not the case at PowerToFly, which is a
mostly
tech-focused jobs board site specifically designed for women. Filter by
skills, categories, employment type, and more. The remote jobs lists
can be slim picking at times, but at least there's a bit less
competition here since it's intended for a narrower demographic.
9. Virtual Vocations
Counting all the categories, Virtual Vocations might look a little
light on the tech, but the website is updated frequently, so just filter
for all the categories you want and keep the search bookmarked. You
will have to register on the site to apply for jobs, but membership is
free (they have a paid upgrade option as well).
10. Ruby Now
Ruby/Rails developers have their own ultra-specialized jobs board at
Ruby Now. However, you'll have to keep an eagle eye out for remote
positions here, since that's just adding one more criterion to an
already narrow search.
11. Remote Jobs
Search for SysOps, DevOps, WordPress, design, and development
positions on this site; you can also filter between full-time,
part-time, contract, and other employment types. Bear in mind, though,
that even with all the employment types selected, you're only going to
see a few jobs a week posted here.
Ready to go remote? Invest in a good computer and a comfy pair of sweatpants,
revamp your resume, and use these sites to start applying.
