Some software developers look for jobs by posting on Twitter. It often works pretty well (but maybe I just haven’t heard about the ones that don’t work)

Here are some examples:

  1. anasofiapaixao_ “Hi 👋🏽 woman, queer, #ActuallyAutistic full stack dev here, interested in remote positions and a 4 day work week at 80% of the compensation of the 5 day work week”
  2. redlamp “I’m looking for new work in 2020! My contract is coming up soon and I’d like to explore new opportunities. I’m Interested in UI/UX work in creative tools, tech, and games. We’re open to relocating but would like to stay in Europe for now.”
  3. calculush“hi I’m scout, a melbourne based software/devops engineer looking for work. I have several years of broad experience in a number of languages including:”
  4. pkafei “Anyone in Los Angeles or San Francisco need a good Python coder? @pkafei is looking for work!”

  9. MarieChatfield “🎉 Y’all, I’m moving to Austin in September! 🎉 Do you want to hire -an experienced front-end engineer -who helps projects run smoother -mentors your junior folk -and leaves code cleaner & better documented? 👉 http://mariechatfield.com 📨 marie.chatfield@gmail.com / DMs open”
  10. kf“Well, going to be leaving my current job Jan 10! I’ve worked in engineering for 6 years now. I went from entry-level to staff, tech lead, and sometimes-manager in <5 years, so I’m pretty good at it! That said, going to also look at not-IC and not-eng roles in the new year. 1/??”
  11. cathydeng “I’m currently a fellow at the BuzzFeed Open Lab, where I build prototypes at the intersection of journalism, technology, and the arts. Before that, I built civic technology at DataMade. My fellowship ends in October 2017, so I’m searching for my next challenge. This is a reverse job posting: a solicitation for employment opportunities. Hire me! In a nutshell: I can build technology, design information, and wrestle data. I’ll keep this page short and sweet - please get in touch and I can share much more detail about my work and experiences.”
