The coronavirus pandemic has hamstrung some industries, yet many companies have found ways to leverage what’s accessible to them, transferring on-premises staff into what’s become a long venture in sheltering and working from home. For many workers, remote work has turned into a perk, and they have expressed an interest in continuing to work from home, even when the pandemic is over. If that opportunity doesn’t present itself in your current job, it should be welcome information that there are not only many remote positions now open, they are positions with impressive, high-paying salaries.
The job search website FlexJobs compiled some of the most promising tech-related positions, which can be rewarding in the work and in the paycheck. Here’s a look at the companies, job titles, descriptions and requirements (salaries are approximate).
