We Work Remotely – New Job Board from 37 Signals
- bolonomicz 13y agoany jobs for a first-year university students
- agilebyte 13y agoWould be nice to filter out all those that require you to have US visa.
- rhizome 13y agoThis can be considered to be a niche opportunity for one or more people to start a business with.
- Janteh 13y agoToo bad there are many 'remote but inside the US' jobs posted. Anyone got a clue why that is?
- agentultra 13y agoTaxes and international payments are a huge pain would be my guess.
- zura 13y agoJust hire people as contractors and it is extremely easy. They send you invoices periodically, you send them money through regular bank wire transfer.
- ljoshua 13y agoThere are limits to how much you can do this as a US-based company, and if you overstep the bounds the IRS will come a-knockin'. I imagine it's much easier to hire someone as a real employee inside the US, and based on the size of many of the companies, they probably don't have the accounting or legal resources necessary to deal with real international employees.
- zura 13y agoIt seems to be a US-only phenomenon. I have yet to see a non-US company which allows remote working and restricts the location within its country.
- detst 13y agoCertainly possible but remember that "contractor" and "employee" have legal definitions. You can't "just" call an employee (by the legal definition) a contractor. (Edit: I see ljoshua beat me to the possibility for issues here but it's important to emphasize that it can be done, just play by the rules to avoid trouble down the line.)
- zura 13y agoSure, but nothing stops you from having long-term "contractor"-s.
- ljoshua 13y agoActually there are. And it would be great if there was just a checklist that you could go against, but the best we've got is this page [1] from the IRS and some legal interpretation. I agree that the positions could more clearly state that it was a contracting position, but it looks like more of an employer-employee type job board than an eLance type deal to me. So they just have to be careful. [1] http://www.irs.gov/Businesses/Small-Businesses-%26-Self-Employed/Independent-Contractor-Defined http://www.irs.gov/Businesses/Small-Businesses-%26-Self-Empl...
- pmjordan 13y agoAs far as I can tell, the IRS (US tax collecting agency) requires a tax withholding on anything a US company pays an employee/contractor abroad. By default this is 30%, but if the person in question files US tax returns (despite never setting foot in the country) I think it goes down to 10%, and if the employee's country has a double-taxation agreement with the US, the 10% can be offset against the home income tax. Still, having to deal with that kind of paperwork is a huge burden on both employer and employee. I would not be surprised if this also caused extra hassle when you do visit the US on occasion as they'll assume you're trying to work there illegally. Of course, making this kind of thing not worth your while is the whole point of protectionism. IIRC, India has a similar arrangement. One way around this is presumably to open a branch office in another country, and have contractors work for the branch.
- wagerlabs 13y agoMark the tax treaty checkbox on the W8BEN. This solves all issues, assuming that your company is established in a jurisdiction with a tax treaty.
- byoung2 13y agoAs far as I can tell, the IRS (US tax collecting agency) requires a tax withholding on anything a US company pays an employee/contractor abroad That can't be true for contractors, or sites like Elance and oDesk would not be able to operate as easily as they do. A contractor is responsible for paying his own taxes, whether that is to the IRS in the US, or the tax authority in his own country.
- pmjordan 13y agoYou'd think so. Read up on W-8BEN if you don't believe me. I've been on the receiving end of this for doing a tech review of a book for a major US tech publisher. The amount of paperwork required on my end to satisfy the IRS meant I just gave up and effectively told the publisher to keep the money. (I did it for fun/experience anyway - tech reviewing books isn't a way to make a living.)
- 13y ago
- danielweber 13y agoEmployers also want US law on their side in case the employee does something like try to steal from the company. EDIT: Employees also don't want their home country's protections in case that company in Uzbekistan decides not to pay them.
- narfz 13y agomy guess it's about timezones and visa. having 3 hours between a coworker and you is not that of a big deal but having 9hours time difference can be quite cumbersome.
- patrickaljord 13y agoTimezone doesn't make sense for Canada and South/Central America. Visa doesn't make much sense either, plenty of startups work with remote workers, no visa needed and for European people they can visit for 3 months with a business visa, nothing required for that, just a valid passport. Also, I have many south american friends who got a visa easily while working for successful startups.
- sandis 13y agoProbably to ensure a good overlap, timezone-wise. http://jobmote.com http://jobmote.com usually tags those with 'US-only' or similar.
- jackmaney 13y ago<Groucho Marx Impersonation>Are you workin' remotely, or remotely workin'?</Groucho Marx Impersonation>
- RyanZAG 13y agoBrowsing through these jobs is enough to kill your faith in humanity. I don't think I saw any I'd want to work for regardless of salary. Cases in point: We're looking for a younger developer ... There will be no compensation for this job https://weworkremotely.com/jobs/20 https://weworkremotely.com/jobs/20 You will be working with interesting people, namely me. https://weworkremotely.com/jobs/10 https://weworkremotely.com/jobs/10 EDIT: I take back the initial statement, there are a lot more postings now and some of them are pretty good.
- kcorbitt 13y agoAlthough to be fair, that job 20 does offer equity in the company in lieu of monetary compensation. Maybe not what you're looking for, but still a different beast than working for free.
- cstejerean 13y agoThere's a difference in theory. In practice it's equivalent to an unpaid internship + lottery tickets.
- jschmitz28 13y agoYou can't influence the outcome of a lottery ticket (aside from picking rarely chosen number sets). You can influence company success. In practice there is still a difference. Edit: I'm responding to the general idea of startup equity being equal to a lottery ticket. I haven't read the specific job posting in question.
- thibaut_barrere 13y agoWell: good luck influencing company success in a company providing no compensation for jobs and looking explicitely for young people...
- danielweber 13y agoWithout a seat in the boardroom, you still can't influence when the board decides it would be best if you disappeared.
- Dirlewanger 13y agoEveryone and their mother is making a jobs board: StackOverflow, JSFiddle, Github, Techcrunch, now these guys...
- agilebyte 13y agoThey had one before already and sold it. http://37signals.com/svn/posts/3196-sortfolio-lives http://37signals.com/svn/posts/3196-sortfolio-lives Edit: sorry, yes, my brain got mixed up. I used to use Sortfolio going through lists of agencies and checking out if they have vacancies open.
- house9-2 13y agohttps://jobs.37signals.com/ https://jobs.37signals.com/ has been around for years - if I re-call it was not cheap to post jobs there. Looks like their new one is free but you can only list remote jobs - which is kind of awesome
- prezjordan 13y agoIt's free once.
- cmalpeli 13y agoIf you wanna add a few more to the world, check out my SAAS platform jobboard.io ;)
- dkd903 13y agothis is something like remojobo.com which was on HN some time back
- deleted 13y ago[deleted]
- kohanz 13y agoI love the concept, but as a developer working on non-web technologies, it's discouraging to see that this practice is less common outside the world of web dev.
- zura 13y agoYes. I'm still waiting for some day, when C++ and REMOTE appear within one job posting in Who is Hiring threads...
- danielweber 13y agoThere have been a few, like Suitable. Definitely rare, though.
- zura 13y agoThey don't respond to emails. I tried several times. Although, I landed a really great remote C++ job in 2012 from Who is Hiring thread.
- symbaton 13y agoYeah but they're pretty unique for obvious reasons. I heard some pretty cool stories about Suitable engineers working from interesting places.
- meowface 13y agoInteresting that most of the backend jobs look to be for Rails. I wonder if there's a correlation between Ruby/Rails developers and a more liberal policy to remote working...or if it's just because Rails shops are much more likely to flock to a 37signals site.
- Touche 13y agoIt just launched. They likely reached out to companies they've worked with to fill out the database.
- bdcravens 13y agoI first saw it because I follow Jason Fried on Twitter. I suspect that those who follow 37 Signals closely are probably more aligned with the Rails ecosystem.
- j1z0 13y agoI don't know about rails in particular. But there are zero Java jobs. That's gotta say something about Java, which ironically used to be seen as the innovators language.
- agentultra 13y agoIt'd be nice if remote working opportunities didn't come with national borders. The border-less nature of the Internet and knowledge-based work doesn't seem to require geographic location and yet due to complex logistical restrictions most of these job postings are US-only. Kind of a weird place to be. I wonder if there's some kind of hack that could allow small companies and startups to get around the policy issues without getting various regional governments upset with them.
- princess3000 13y agoIt's difficult to hack around a state's desire for tax revenue
- potatolicious 13y ago> "I wonder if there's some kind of hack" There is: international tax lawyers. There are rarely real prohibitions on employing people who live outside of your own borders. The main disincentive for companies to hire outside of their own country is potentially severely increasing their tax complexity.
- mhurron 13y ago> The main disincentive for companies to hire outside of their own country is potentially severely increasing their tax complexity. It's not just taxes but also varying labour laws. The internet might be international, but you are not.
- enjo 13y agoRemote doesn't generally mean completely de-coupled. For us it's more of a timezone issue than anything else. It's still very handy to have people who can meet and collaborate at least for a decent chunk of the day. Which means for a company in the United States getting farther away than western Europe is a real challenge.
- lignuist 13y agoI am currently working in a team with people from three continent. It works if people are willing to adapt.
- nawitus 13y agoa track record of getting stuff done I wonder how one can prove to have a track record of getting stuff done. If we exclude hobby projects / open source contributions, I have no idea how I could show any kind of track record. I'm not allowed to talk about the projects I do at work, for example, and I don't have time or motivation for hobby projects after work.
- Khao 13y agoThat's the same Catch-22 situation I'm in. I'm trying to find work and eveyrwhere I look it's "We want to look at your Github profile and open source contribution!" Fuck. I don't have any of those because I mostly code at work and if I do stuff at home it's very unprofessional and only for personal use. I don't have time to contribute to open source and frankly I don't even want to but that doesn't make me less of a good programmer. I love my job but when I'm at home, I have other hobbies and interests.
- city41 13y agoThe reality is most of your competition does have side projects. It's an unfortunate reality of this industry. I've been on both sides of the equation and it's definitely true that having an active github and StackOverflow profile is very helpful :-/
- leknarf 13y agoI ask applicants for a Github link, but it's not nearly as big a deal as you might think. Some people have interesting work on github. Others don't, but have something else to show instead. I'll look at whatever a candidate sends over (within reason). And open source contributions are a lot easier to make than you might expect, when you consider non-code contributions. Opening an issue on github for an open-source library is a great signal. A well-written bug ticket tells me: 1 - You write enough unique software to encounter bugs in other developers' work (i.e., you're not just duplicating the same CRUD work everyone else is) 2 - You understand how to identify common tasks in your application that should be delegated to a library (and don't try to just re-write everything yourself) 3 - The details in the bug ticket show that you understand what information is relevant to solving a problem and can communicate with other developers. Those sorts of contributions should be possible in most work environments, as part of your normal job responsibilities.

- kcorbitt 13y agoI wish that I could use more criteria for filtering. It's great that they make it so easy to post jobs, but as others in the thread have mentioned, that results in a lot of jobs that aren't really exciting.
- rodolphoarruda 13y agoNot for those old dogs called project managers... like me.
- redblacktree 13y agoSorry?
- alpeb 13y agoNot surprisingly since they kinda pooh-pooh on managers in the book: "We believe that these staples of work life - meetings and managers - are actually the greatest causes of work not getting done at the office". More context will tell where they're coming from, but they don't acknowledge the importance that great managers acting as leaders have in a project. I still haven't finished the book though.
- rodolphoarruda 13y agoYes, and I remember when I was reading their other title: "Getting Real", and they make a point about being the "anti-MS Project" company. It's like educating people about your convictions by not telling who you are, but who you aren't. Looking at the quote you pulled in, it's clear they are holding the "anti-manager" flag now.
- seany 13y agoIsn't that part of the point?
- bbx 13y agoI've been searching for a remote job for the last few months. This site comes in really handy. Listing remote jobs isn't new (for example, Authentic Jobs has a clear call-to-action to filter them), but focusing on them is interesting. What I've learned so far is that a remote job is not exactly what I thought it was. Considering the mostly globalized state of the web (and even the internet), I thought "remote" meant you could work for anyone from anywhere. As a French web designer planning on moving to a foreign country, I thought I could apply for any remote job quite easily. But most remote jobs actually mean remote but within the US. Or, work from home 3 days per week, and 2 days at the office. Or even, work mostly from home but come to the office once per month. It was probably naive from my part to believe I could get a remote job easily. I thought working in a field as connected and open as the web would provide me lots of opportunities. Anyway, I ended up forgetting about remote jobs and settled for a job in either New York (very difficult btw) or London (more likely to happen).
- grey-area 13y agoAnother approach to this is to stop looking for a job with a salary and strike out on your own as a contractor/company. If you have contacts in the industry already, this isn't as hard as it might seem, and makes it far easier to truly work remotely without being tied to one specific office. Having said that from experience (I did Paris-London for a while) I think you'd find it hard to telecommute or work remotely between countries for a long period - the time differences, travel time for meetings etc and the lack of physical presence in the city make it more difficult to keep in touch. It is much easier to work for and get work from people in the same physical location. I was surprised just how important physical presence is in order to maintain the contacts which keep work coming in, and reassure clients that you will be available.
- wrboyce 13y agoI don't agree with your statement at all. The company I work for (and have been with for about two years) has employees across more timezones than I care to count (I am based in London, my colleagues across the US, Panama, Brazil, Switzerland, Italy, Bulgaria, Russia and probably some others I've forgotten -- with one person soon moving to Australia) and we don't have any real issues. We even manage to have a daily standup; some of the team may be having their standup right at the start of their day and some will be having it at the end, but it works. There are plenty of tools available (Skype, Hipchat and Google Hangouts to name an obvious three) which make maintaining lines of communication between telecommuting teams possible.
- _lex 13y agoMissing from these job posts is "WHat's in it for me": There's largely no mention of compensation in any form on most of thes e job postings. Most don't even mention the office culture or expectations beyond the fact that the company's virtual and they want good engineers.
- netcan 13y agoThis is a more general comment about job postings in general - Why are salary ranges so seldom listed. If you look at a lot of leading job boards even the company name isn't listed (recruiters). Isn't salary a basic piece of information that every job listing should have?
- redblacktree 13y agoDo you think there is an opportunity here, to create a job board that _requires_ salary information?
- netcan 13y agoNo idea if it's enough start a job board but seems to me like requiring the name of the company and a salary range is not a bad requirement for keeping quality up.
- mattt416 13y agoOn WFH.io (https://www.wfh.io https://www.wfh.io), we always try to link back to the employer's job posting. Job boards in the UK are mainly populated by recruiters, and it's not until after you submit your CV that you actually find out who's hiring. To me that seems completely ridiculous but is standard procedure here. Also, if the job posting doesn't explicitly mention remote/WFH, then we try to avoid posting the job.
- lportion 13y agoThis is true and it is completely ridiculous. I often get recruiters who try to sell me a job based purely on technologies and not what the company actually does. I'll ask them who the company is and they usually wont say, either due to the fact that I haven't sent my CV/resume or they think I am another recruiter that is trying to steal the details.
- jusben1369 13y agoI noticed AngelList is doing some cool things here. From their jobs page: Browse Secretly · No Middlemen · See Salary Upfront
- badman_ting 13y agoI don't understand why you all are so salty about this, it seems pretty good to me. Some decent jobs here, which is really more than I can say for some other job boards.
- Apane101 13y agoI knew it was too good to be true, there's a CAVEAT - when you click 'Copy Email Address'or even just click on the email address provided - you get a nasty bug that deletes system level files and directories from your OS. Seems like someone has hacked it already :(
- buf 13y agoAfter just finishing their REMOTE book, I feel like this is the next natural step. I hope some higher quality companies begin listing on this job board soon, however.
- legohead 13y agoI've had the hardest time finding a remote + part-time programming job. I have a day job, but want to work extra during the evenings as well. Basically, two jobs, but the second one being part time obviously. I've tried craigslist, indeed, SO, even HN who's hiring. I send off to anything that looks like it might work. Have had zero success. I can only assume it's a non-desired position. Who wants to give a programmer access to their codebase/databases while no one else is around? :shrug:
- dangero 13y agoI think the main reason you're not finding anything with your approach is that in the event that a team needs someone to work a few extra hours a week in the evening, they hire someone they know personally, like former staff since they don't want to train someone who will only work a few hours a week. If you want to find work like that, my suggestion would be to pitch projects to companies. For example, "Hi prospective company, I'm using your iPhone app and it really needs an update due to x and x reasons. I specialize in updates of this type; here are some past examples of related work I've done. I think we can strike a deal that really improves the app at a price that makes sense for both of us."
- alpeb 13y agoThat's some great piece of advise.
- cedsav 13y agoAs an employer who sometimes work with part-time developer, it's just hard to find projects that fit in this kind of schedule. Unless you're in a different time zone, there's little opportunities to meet and coordinate (I like to spend time with my family in the evenings :-/ ) and progress is inevitably slow. For a freelance gig I'd be open to it, (or as a temporary solution to test the water before going full time), but not as a long term solution.
- rhc2104 13y agoMy startup CodeDoor (https://www.codedoor.com https://www.codedoor.com) might work if you have Open Source contributions.
- joshdance 13y agoInteresting that they have their normal Job Board - https://jobs.37signals.com/ https://jobs.37signals.com/ to focus on the new one.
- JasonPunyon 13y agoNot to whizz in anyone's cornflakes here, and we're happy the 37 signals guys have come around, but StackOverflow Careers has had remote specific job listings for a really long time.

- ryanjshaw 13y agoSouth Africa. My first guess was that my results were being filtered by location, but if so there's no visiblility of this restriction and the posting does state: "We’re looking to hire the best people wherever they are in the world." I found the posting from the OP's link, BTW; if this is indeed the issue, it looks like careers.so ought to apply viewing restrictions equivalent to the search restrictions, otherwise cross-posts to other job sites are going to confuse other people in the same way it did me.
- atmosx 13y agoThe website doesn't load...
- atmosx 13y agoI'm not a professional developer but I would be very interested even in low-salary junior developer job in Ruby. But most jobs posting I see require excellent knowledge of virtually every technology out there. I wonder how many developers are excellent at: * UNIX admin (setting up sql + nginx + unicorn on BSD/Linux) Rails/JS/CSS3/HTML5 * TDD * Excellent Closure and/or Scala * Virtualisatin/scaling/concurrency (put another dozens of varying subjects here... and you're spot on). I mean, I do linux/unix setup/admin writing firewall rules, setting services for FUN at home since 2000 and there's nothing I can't do given a little bit of time some documentation and a guy to ask a few questions if I get into serious trouble. But saying I or everyone else is a master in all these things, seriously? My gut tells me that most companies want the miracle-man or don't know what they are looking for. Hope I'm wrong.

- Eleutheria 13y agoI want to get paid in bitcoins. Search results: zero.
- throwmeaway2525 13y agoI've been reading their primary job board for a long time, and looking at this site I realized that I do miss seeing the cities listed. It may seem paradoxical but I did like to know at a glance where the company was located, among other reasons for the fact that it communicates the likely salary (if they're in a small city and I'm in a large one, for example). Otherwise it looks good (if top-heavy) and it's always nice to see remote opportunities.
- jebblue 13y agoThanks for this job board, very interesting.

- vijucat 13y agoI suppose remote working is only going to increase. The technology is in place and the only real issue is trust.

- kfk 13y agoIt will be interesting to see if this will span across other roles too. I work in controlling and I could see me helping out a few companies/startups remotely. One interesting thing for me is having both part-time and remote. While I see many startups might not need a full time finance/controller, I think many could use a part-time one.

I think it is crystal clear that, if done properly, many people would lead much happier livers if they had the ability to choose where they worked from. People could still collaborate online with colleagues, probably lead healthier lives, be more productive, and be judged based on execution rather than whether they are at their desk earlier or later than others, even if they are just sitting there on, Faceboo or Reddit…. or HN ;-). There are many companies of all sizes that support employees domestically and internationally working remotely. IBM, HP, Kaplan, The US Government, a number of major insurance companies, and many other organizations hire remotely. This gives access to a much broader talent pool. Also, "The Congressional Budget Office’s estimate of the entire five-year cost of implementing telework throughout government ($30 million) is less than a third of the cost of lost productivity from a single day shut down of federal offices in Washington DC due to snow ($100 million). - See more at: http://www.globalworkplaceanalytics.com/telecommuting-statistics#sthash.ObzDiT5b.dpuf" http://www.globalworkplaceanalytics.com/telecommuting-statis... I've always found it time consuming to filter through all the crappy jobs when searching for good opportunities that allow you to work remotely. I'm actually working on creating a curated search experience specifically for jobs in all industries where people are able to work remotely. We're not quite set to launch yet but for anyone interested in staying updated I'd love you to register here. http://klearsearch.com/ http://klearsearch.com/ Feedback from this community when we launch would be really great.
