60 Work-from-anywhere jobs hiring now for the week of September 17, 2025

Here's a first for me when looking at a Bolt job description:

• You do not need a college degree to apply
• You do not need to be located in the U.S. — we’re remote-friendly
• You do not need to meet every qualification listed above

I do have some questions about their remote work policy, which doesn't explicitly say you can work from anywhere. There are certain roles that require time zone overlap, which usually implies your location doesn't matter, but I would love to see some more clarity. Here's a few perks.

🔌 Tech stipend: "Internet reimbursement. Working from home shouldn’t mean paying extra to stay connected. We’ll help with that."

🏋🏻 Health & Wellness: "Reimbursed fitness classes, therapy, or anything that helps you feel your best."

📚 Learning Stipend: "Learning & Development stipend to grow your skills"

🏥 Health Coverage: "100% paid coverage of medical, dental, and vision insurance for employees"

A few readers recommended that I throw Clutch in the newsletter, so I gave them a look this week, and they were right. They've got good employee reviews, a work-from-anywhere policy, and some really good perks and benefits. I wouldn't mind seeing the careers page get built out a little more - some testimonials, a transparent hiring process, etc. But overall they're doing a nice job. Here's some things I like:

🔌 Tech stipend: "Home Office Setup Budget"

🏝️ Unforgettable Off-Sites: "Twice a year, bond with colleagues in exciting destinations, fostering teamwork and fresh ideas."

📈 Stock Options: "Joining us means having a stake in our success, so you'll receive stock options as part of your compensation package."

🏥 Health Coverage: "Prioritize your well-being with comprehensive health and dental insurance plans."

DuckDuckGo has the only perfect score in our database, and is THE prototype for what we look for in a work-from-anywhere company. Well, not JUST a WFA company, but ANY company. Here's the core tenets we look for:

• Clear prioritization of working from anywhere as a business model.
• Clear expression of trust and empowerment for employees.
• Understanding that output > location or hours.
• Transparent perk package.
• Transparent salary offering per role.
• Emphasis of employees over mission statement.

DuckDuckGo nails each of these things I look for.

Any time you see a role posted, APPLY. Don't question it, just apply. Highlights:

The new opening line on their careers page states: "Work with us from wherever you like. Explore the remote job opportunities at Automattic. Work from anywhere, and make the web a better place for everyone, everywhere."

I mean, c'mon. I told you I was already in, you don't have to sell me more. Oh you know very well that I'm a sucker for company who values output over location and hours, and here I am again, blushing with happiness. From Automattic's website:

"We care about the work you produce, not just the hours you put in."

If that's not enough, check out their awesome perks package (in the AtlasScore). Here's some things I really like:

🏝️ Unlimited PTO: "Our open vacation policy (no set number of days per year) is designed to help you to be at your best! There is no minimum or maximum, but we encourage you to take at least 25 days of time off per year."

Awesome Motive has one of my all-time favorite career page quotes:

"Work at Home, Feel at Home. When we say we value People First, we mean it. We pride ourselves in making a welcoming environment for everyone. No politics, No B.S., and definitely No jerks!"

They seriously do a great job on their careers page of conveying a lot of information while putting forth a lot of personality with a warm vibe. Here's a few things I like:

⏱️ Flexible Hours

🏥 Health, Dental & Vision Insurance

💻 Equipment Stipend

📚 Professional Development budget

I love that Storyblok immediately leans into an employee-first narrative rather than telling you what they expect of you, before you've even applied. I also love that they understand (how most companies don't get this I will never understand) that WFA policies opens them up to a much bigger talent pool:

"Being fully-remote means we can hire the best talent – and top-notch people – from across the world. We’re a diverse team spread across more than 45 countries, united by a love of furry animals and a belief in certain values (see below). You can rely on your colleagues here. And learn from them. Heck, you might end up calling some of them friends."

They seem to mention pizza quite a bit...which I don't quite get. Maybe it's an inside joke with employees.

⏰ Flexible hours: "As a fully remote company with work-life balance at its core, you can arrange start times and finish times around your life."

🏝️ Paid Retreats: "As a fully remote company with team members living in different corners of the world, we have ongoing online fun team events.

📚 Learning budget: "We want to invest in you and make sure you have all the resources you need to grow within the company. In the beginning, we will provide you with training on the job, then support you with our Career Development Fund."

Have you ever played chess online? I certainly haven't, but many many people do. So many that Chess.com has built out a team of 800+ employees to support the demand! They have a VERY simple careers page, but it feels more genuine and personable than 95% of the pages I've run into. Everything about this statement feels good:

"We're always looking for great people to join the team. All of our jobs are 100% remote. We have a healthy work environment focused on well-being, respect, and memes/emotes. We communicate with Slack and positive energy beams.

If you love chess as much as we do, maybe this is your chance to work and do your hobby at the same time!? We have several positions we are looking to fill."

I'd love to see more details about the perks they offer employees - a lack of visibility here is really the only detail driving their score lower.

✔︎ Hire-from-anywhere alert! Chess.com will hire prospective employees from anywhere.

They're a really small company, but I often see a lot of benefits to that. Generally, you'll find more work flexibility, strong remote work structures, and lots. of autonomous work. The downside is that I rarely have a lot of information to go off of, other than what I see on their sites. This is one of those cases. That said, I see quite a few green flags.

Bonfire has a nicely designed careers page, but what you REALLY want to do is draw in talent by selling them on why a candidate should work for you, rather than explaining what you expect of your employees. See below for the type of mentality they are looking for from employees:

I'd also love to see a more comprehensive explanation of what "remote" means to them.

Here's what I DO like about CH...They have positively-trending Glassdoor reviews, several employee testimonials, unlimited PTO, and lots of jobs that hire from anywhere.

Here's what I DON'T like about CH...They are missing a huge opportunity for stronger employee marketing. Their careers page has a lengthy explanation about what they expect of prospective candidates - how to be and what to do. There's literally 12 panels that explain what they want from you...instead of talking about what they can do for their employees.

It sets the tone the wrong way right out of the gate. I would much rather see them take an employee-first mentality rather than dumping a laundry list of expectations on people who haven't even applied yet.

They could immensely improve their talent attraction by clearly explaining why THEY should work for YOU, a clear remote work policy, and a detailed list of perks and benefits.

Filmless is a bit harder to review, as all roles are contract (1099). This is a good thing, and a challenging thing. It's a good thing because as a contractor, you're usually able to enjoy as much WFA freedom as you could possibly ask for. Most companies who hire contractors are able to hire from anywhere, and let their employees work from anywhere.

On the flipside, the tradeoff is that benefits are usually completely on you. You cover your own medical, equipment costs, etc. For all intents and purposes, you are an independent contractor rather than an employee. As such, there is less inherent security.

🌏 Hire-from-anywhere alert!

Bounteous is another consideration for addition to regular newsletter inclusion and the Anywhere Atlas, but I don't yet have enough clarity on their WFA policy. They certainly are fully remote, but it's not quite clear whether or not they let employees work wherever they want. If a rep could reach out with clarification, I would be happy to add them to both

Their website says "work from anywhere", but it may imply that you can work from anywhere within your region. Here's their statement:

"When you join our team, you are immersed in a vibrant and supportive community that respects and adopts diverse perspectives that meaningfully transform our company and clients. You're encouraged to work where you want and thrive with our supportive programs and offerings."

Again, need more information, and take that into consideration.

I'm considering Gametime for regular inclusion in the newsletter, but I'm not 100% clear on their WFA policy. They have a bit of a vague, "remote friendly" policy that doesn't fully clarify any potential limitations. That said, they ARE fully remote, have a decent perk package, and acceptable Glassdoor reviews. Here's a few features:

🏝️ Unlimited PTO: "Take what you need' vacation policy (we actually mean it!)"

👶🏾 Paid Parental Leave: Peace of mind for parents to dedicate their time to the care of their new child

🏥 Healthcare: "Medical, dental, and vision coverage for you and your dependents"

🔌 Tech stipend: "Monthly stipend to offset the cost of internet and any home office updates"
