established-remote

Established Remote is a curated reference list of tech companies that hire software developers and other technical roles on a fully remote or distributed basis. The focus is on well-funded or profitable businesses with at least 50 employees, where a significant portion of the workforce already works remotely. To make the list useful to developers around the world, the maintainer has narrowed it to companies that hire globally rather than restricting their engineering positions to a small number of wealthy countries.

The core of the repository is a table listing each company alongside the type of product or service they build, the programming languages and technologies they work with, whether they offer globally competitive salaries, and links to their current job pages and Glassdoor profiles. Companies range from collaboration-tool makers and music platforms to blockchain studios and DevOps tooling vendors. The table is kept in alphabetical order, and contributors are welcome to submit additions through pull requests.

The list started in 2015 as a personal resource for the maintainer, who began working remotely in 2017. Since remote work became more common after 2020, the scope has shifted to focus specifically on companies that hire across borders rather than acting as a general guide to the broader remote work field.

For a job seeker looking for a permanent remote role at an established company, this repository is a starting point. Each row in the table links directly to the company's jobs page, so checking current openings takes a single click. The repository also points to a third-party job board called Remote Rocketship for a broader search across tens of thousands of remote listings.
