Ask HN: How to start building a remote working career in Software?
Hello,<p>I am a Software Engineer at an e-commerce company and have a long term goal to settle down in home-town with a good remote working Software Engineering job. I come for a tier-2 city in India and it does not have any Software opportunities as such. Most of the resources that I have read online about remote working are fluff and does not answer a lot of critical questions. Advice on this topic would be very helpful.<p>My main question is -<p>- &quot;How can I get started slowly towards remote working without completely leaving my current job?&quot; . I have not found an answer about how to get started. Some concrete steps in this direction would be very helpful.<p>Some other questions for which I am also looking for an answer -<p>- A lot of websites mention &quot;Remote (US)&quot;. How about Asia? Or better would be &quot;Anywhere&quot;?<p>- What are the best in class engineering companies which support remote jobs?<p>- Stumbled upon &quot;Basecamp&quot; which was one company which hires across the globe without pay normalisation (what I read in text). What are other companies where one could get handsomely paid irrespective of the location?
