What we see in New York right now

  • Sales and marketing are the largest groups, followed by operations and project management.
  • Most NYC roles are hybrid with set office days.
  • New York City requires most employers to post pay ranges, so salary filters work well here.

Remote roles widen your options

Many roles listed as "Remote - US" are open to New York residents. Some remote roles are limited to specific states, so check each posting's location line. Browse all remote roles from the links below.

Your teacher retirement benefits

Leaving the classroom can affect your pension and service credit. Rules are set by NYSTRS (statewide) or TRS of the City of New York (NYC teachers), not by employers or by us. Check your options directly at www.nystrs.org or www.trsnyc.org before you resign. This page isn't financial or retirement advice.

Tips for a local search

  • Search metro names as well as the state, because postings often list only the city.
  • Hybrid roles usually expect you near an office for a few days a week.
  • Local edtech companies, universities and nonprofits are worth checking directly, alongside the listings here.
  • Watch for scams: real employers don't ask you to pay for equipment, training or a background check up front, and they don't run the whole interview over a chat app.

Pay examples from real postings
