Yes, tech companies are still hiring. But how do you find remote jobs in the industry? It can feel tiresome, and downright defeating, to sort through the millions (literally, millions!) of job postings on LinkedIn, Indeed, and other search engines in hopes of finding a remote tech role.
Finding remote tech work requires a more nuanced strategy compared to a traditional job search. And while I’ve authored my highly popular articles on the top websites to find a job in tech and the top Facebook groups to find jobs in tech, these aren’t specific to remote work, so what follows are the best websites for finding remote tech jobs.
Note: Some of these websites curate job openings that extend beyond the tech industry. However, they’re still great search engines, and with some quick filtering, you can narrow in on solely remote tech jobs, so I decided to keep them on the list.
11 Best Websites For Finding Remote Tech Jobs
1. Built In
If you’re a regular reader of my Forbes column or job search blog, you’re likely not surprised to see Built In at the top of the list of best websites for finding remote tech jobs.
While Built In markets itself as, “the online community for national startups and tech companies,” I like to describe it as the Glassdoor of startups and tech.
One of the qualities I love most about Built In is the data it offers on both established tech companies and startups. You can glean an overview of the company, review the perks and benefits, and see current job openings.
You can click here to view current remote jobs on Built In. At the time of writing this article, the platform boasted 10,000+ remote job openings.
2. Blind
Next up on the list of best remote tech job boards is Blind. Because the community offers a wealth of resources for workers across the tech industry and startup space, it’s another one I frequently recommend in my Forbes column and on my blog.
Team Blind is great because you can head over to their robust community forum and learn about the culture and typical compensation package at your company of interest.
You can click here to view remote-only tech roles on Blind’s job board.
Talent by Blind
Blind recently launched Talent by Blind, a tech talent marketplace. According to Toby Kim, Chief of Staff at Blind, Talent by Blind is home to a curated pool of more than 3 million verified tech professionals from companies like Apple, Google, and Microsoft. “Team by Blind is a marketplace for high-quality technical talent,” says Kim.
Kim explains that you can sign up to the jobs marketplace and recruiters will message you first. He adds that the job search site leans toward senior professionals with approximately 5 to 8 years of experience. Additionally, Talent by Blind has a free and vetted job board dedicated exclusively to tech roles at highly rated companies and startups in the tech industry.
3. Wellfound (formerly AngelList Talent)
Wellfound (formerly AngelList Talent) is an additional powerful website for finding remote jobs in tech. If you’re trying to secure an open position with a tech startup, Wellfound is likely your best bet, as they focus on earlier-stage companies.
According to Wellfound’s website, they’re home to “unique jobs at startups and tech companies you can’t find anywhere else.” Additionally, they offer “everything you need to know to job search — including seeing salary and stock options upfront when looking.”
You can click here to create a free Wellfound account and access their remote tech jobs.
4. FlexJobs
FlexJobs is one of the most robust websites for remote jobs in tech. In fact, FlexJobs claims to be “the #1 job site for 100% hand-screened remote and work-from-home jobs.”
As a career coach who specializes in senior managers and executives in the tech industry, I appreciate that the site is more scrupulous in vetting its online job postings. Many lower-quality websites allow anyone to post job openings, which results in a lot of spam.
While not every role is tech-specific, the job search website allows you to quickly sort by job category. Highlights include Computer & IT, Engineering, Internet & Ecommerce, Product, Project Management, Software Development, and Web Development. Within many of these categories, you can filter even further, too. If you’re searching for software development jobs, for instance, you can clarify whether you specialize in iOS or Java and Android.
As of writing this article, FlexJobs had 20,000+ openings for 100% remote jobs, hybrid remote work, and other options for remote gigs. You can click here to view the openings.
5. Remote.co
Remote.co is another good platform for remote jobs. Through some research, I learned the job search engine is run by the same founder and CEO as FlexJobs.
While there are some overlaps in postings between FlexJobs and Remote.co, there are enough variations between the two to warrant checking out both if you’re looking for a job in tech.
The “IT” category is a good place to start on Remote, and you can click here to begin searching through their IT job openings.
6. JustRemote
JustRemote is home to a plethora of partially and fully remote tech job openings across a range of functional areas, including DevOps and system admin, marketing, sales, and more.
According to JustRemote, their filtering options allow you to find roles faster, which means you “don’t spend hours trawling through job descriptions and can instead focus on applying to roles.”
You can click here to view their remote job board and begin filtering through open opportunities. JustRemote also has a special section for partially and fully remote management and executive-level roles here.
7. Jobspresso
Jobspresso is an additional remote job search website that markets itself as “an online platform dedicated to connecting talented people who seek remote careers with innovative, forward-thinking companies that offer these positions.”
According to Jobspresso, their website is “the easiest way to find high-quality remote jobs in tech, marketing, customer support, and more.” Moreover, they claim that all their roles are “hand-picked, manually reviewed, and expertly curated.”
You can click here to see Jobspresso’s current job openings. As of writing this article, the search engine featured 1,000+ all-remote jobs.
8. RemoteWoman
If you’re a woman looking for a remote job in tech, you’ll want to visit RemoteWoman. The platform specializes in work-from-home opportunities for professional women.
Jaira Romero, the co-founder of RemoteWoman, says the company is “on a mission to enable professional women to find meaningful careers in a world that increasingly demands flexibility, diversity, and inclusivity in building innovative solutions.”
You can click here to view RemoteWoman’s current open job opportunities across marketing, design, software development and engineering, product, sales, and support.
RemoteWoman also has a free Slack community of 25,000 women working remotely. You can click here to apply to join the group for free.
9. RemotePOC
RemotePOC is a partner site to RemoteWomen and curates work-from-home jobs for professionals of color. “We connect inclusive, remote-friendly companies to professionals of color,” explains Romero.
You can click here to view RemotePOC’s current open job opportunities across design, software development, marketing, product, sales, and support.
RemotePOC is also home to a free Slack community for remote professionals of color. You can click here to submit a free application to join the group.
10. LinkedIn Jobs
As a LinkedIn Top Voice for Job Search & Careers (the platform’s highest honor), I’d be remiss if I didn’t mention LinkedIn Jobs as another great resource for finding remote jobs in tech.
Like FlexJobs, not all the roles on LinkedIn Jobs are remote. However, you can quickly filter by toggling and selecting “Remote” under “On-site/remote.” For those looking for a hybrid option, the platform has that too.
Among the various job search engines, LinkedIn Jobs is one of the most comprehensive when it comes to search functionality. Some of my favorite filters include:
- Job type (Full-time, Part-time, Contract, Temporary, etc.)
- Experience Level (Executive, Director, Mid-Senior Level, etc.)
- Under 10 applicants
- In your network
You can also now sort job openings by salary! This is a relatively new and exciting feature that ensures you’re only targeting those roles that align with your compensation expectations.
11. Your target company’s career page
Lastly, I always recommend taking time to directly visit the Careers page of your company of interest, since this is going to be the first external page that is updated with new job openings.
If you want to work at Microsoft, for example, you can try careers.microsoft.com. Then, you can check back regularly to see if any new roles that align with your job search requirements have been posted there.
