Hi Can you tell me something about your remote working experience? What software stack do you work on? How do you find clients? Do you cold call/email companies or something else? How do you keep track of hours? Thanks

Python and Javascript mostly. I just use online job boards, communities like HN and reddit, slack communities, etc. Close to zero networking, though I'm sure it would help. I wrote an article a little while ago about how I approach finding remote jobs, if that helps

The contracts are usually full time equivalent and I usually only have the one, so tracking time is pretty easy.

Not the OP but the secret is to pick a niche and attend events related to your industry segment. I'm active in the local Python meetups, they are a great source of business leads.
