How Bootcamp Grads Can Land a Remote Job in 2026

In this episode, Lucas and Luna dive into the shifting landscape of remote work for bootcamp graduates in mid-2026. They break down a recent study by FlexJobs showing that tech roles now account for 42% of all verified remote job listings, up from 37% in 2024. The hosts discuss why the 'remote-first' wave is different this time—companies are not just allowing remote work but actively recruiting for it, especially in cybersecurity, cloud engineering, and product design. Lucas shares three concrete strategies: targeting companies that have publicly committed to remote-first cultures (like GitLab, Zapier, and Automattic), leveraging bootcamp alumni networks for referrals, and using niche job boards like We Work Remotely and Remote OK. Luna adds a cautionary note about avoiding scams and the importance of vetting company culture. The episode also includes a sincere donation segment supporting the ad-free podcast. A must-listen for any bootcamp grad navigating the 2026 remote job market. #RemoteJobs #BootcampGrads #CareerChange #TechJobs #FlexJobs #RemoteFirst #GitLab #Zapier #Automattic #WeWorkRemotely #RemoteOK #Cybersecurity #CloudEngineering #ProductDesign #JobSearch #Networking #Careers #FexingoBusiness Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
