I've just started looking at the remote jobs market, as finding a remote position could be very useful in my current situation (ie, ready to leave my current position - which will require some time to find a replacement and for the handover - and to move abroad). But it looks like most of the good offers are only for US/Canada based people.

Does anybody have good experiences with finding well paid, technical remote jobs here in Europe? How did you find that?



I found my job through StackOverflow jobs filtering by "Remote". Now I work for Hotjar, and we hire mostly in Europe timezones (although also some in North America). I'm specially interested in a DevOps/SRE type person to join my team, but we have other openings too.


I applied two times at HotJar in the past few months, without success. Can't say I'm a fan of the video part of the interview process.


What is the video part like?

For a full remote position, you'd think video chat would be a common thing.


For me the video part of the process involved recording a video about 6 minutes long where I had to answer 5 questions to camera and send that video in, there wasn't a video conference part (at least not for me). After that was a telephone interview, I didn't get any further than that.


Yes, I recently got a remote job in Europe through https://www.remotepython.com/ . We're currently running a campaign on StackOverflow, too.


If you don’t mind staying in your current role (other than the location), it would be worth having a friendly chat with your boss to see if they can offer you remote work.
