How we count

Ashney reads companies' own applicant-tracking systems directly, hourly, not job boards. These counts are for Software Engineer roles in remote roles, deduplicated across reposts and staffing-agency listings. Seniority is inferred from the job title. This report refreshes weekly; the Ashney app scores new roles for members hourly. Figures as of 31 August 2026.

1,805 roles is too many to read.
Ashney reads them for you.

It scores every Software Engineer role in remote roles against your résumé and surfaces only the ones worth your time, with the one honest gap on each. The median role fills in 31 days, so being early matters.
