09Methodology

This report is generated from live data collected by Remote Vibe Coding Jobs. Our methodology:

  • Data collection: Jobs are aggregated from 21 sources including major remote job boards (RemoteOK, We Work Remotely, Remotive, Himalayas), company career pages via Lever and Greenhouse, and direct employer submissions.
  • Vibe detection: Each listing is analyzed for culture signals — async-first practices, flexible schedules, AI-tool adoption, and developer-friendly hiring (no leetcode, deep work focus). These are tagged automatically and verified periodically.
  • Salary data: Only listings with explicitly stated salary ranges are included in compensation analysis. We do not estimate or impute salaries.
  • Freshness: Data is revalidated hourly. This report reflects a live snapshot and may change between visits.
  • Deduplication: Jobs appearing on multiple sources are deduplicated by title + company matching.
