Couchbase is happy to hire remote workers, even without previous remote experience.
I've worked for Couchbase for a year and a half now, and it's a nice place. We're a mature startup building a NoSQL database, headed for IPO soon (within a year or two).
And we're hiring: https://www.couchbase.com/careers/open-positions https://www.couchbase.com/careers/open-positions
- sah2ed 9y agoThere's no reliable way to tell which roles permit working remotely. For instance, this one requires being onsite: https://jobs.jobvite.com/couchbase/job/oApC4fwp https://jobs.jobvite.com/couchbase/job/oApC4fwp
- johan_larson 9y agoOn paper, yes. In practice, the company has a lot of distributed-work-friendly DNA from the open source movement, so I would expect the matter to be negotiable even for positions that explicitly name a work site. How negotiable? Mumble. I can say that my immediate work group has a manager and two engineers in Mountain View, and one engineer each in Denver, Toronto, and Manchester.
- jcadam 9y agoGood to know, thanks. I've looked at Couchbase before, but when I saw locations listed for each position and no "Remote work possible" in the job description, I assumed you weren't considering remote applicants.
- davidjnelson 9y agoThat's a really great point. A lot of open source companies are very remote friendly or even remote first.
