Fully remote software engineering positions with distributed teams worldwide.
Remote software engineering roles let you work from anywhere while building products used by millions. These positions range from fully distributed startups to established companies offering permanent remote arrangements. Filter by region, tech stack, and seniority to find roles that match your experience and timezone preferences.
Pair your job search with structured preparation. Use roadmaps for learning paths, problems for coding practice, and contests to benchmark your skills.
Approximately 30-35% of software engineering job postings offer fully remote work arrangements. Hybrid roles account for another 25-30%. The remote share varies by seniority, with senior and staff-level positions more likely to offer full remote flexibility compared to entry-level and intern roles that often include on-site components.
Most large tech companies pay remote engineers on par with on-site peers, though some adjust compensation by location. Companies like GitLab, Automattic, and Stripe offer location-independent pay. Smaller companies may apply geographic adjustments of 10-20%. Remote roles often offset any difference through reduced commute costs and housing flexibility.
Remote engineering teams typically use Slack or Discord for communication, GitHub or GitLab for code collaboration, Linear or Jira for project tracking, and Zoom or Google Meet for synchronous meetings. Most teams also rely on Notion or Confluence for documentation and Figma for design collaboration.
Remote interviews follow a similar structure to on-site: recruiter screen, technical phone screen, and a virtual on-site with coding, system design, and behavioral rounds. Some companies add a paid take-home project. The entire process is conducted over video calls, typically spanning two to four weeks from first contact to offer.
Most US-based remote roles expect overlap with Pacific or Eastern time zones, typically requiring four to six hours of synchronous availability. European companies usually require CET overlap. Fully async companies like GitLab and Doist have no timezone requirements, though these positions are less common.
Highlight prior remote or async work experience in your resume. Demonstrate strong written communication through clear pull request descriptions and documentation. Contribute to open-source projects to show you can collaborate asynchronously. Mention timezone flexibility and any experience with distributed team tools and workflows.
