Any tips on favorite places to look for work or contracts?

I like startups - often they have a wider variety of work to be done, and
the work evolves. given your boredom threshold, you might like them too?
and if you don't want a job to last more than 3 years, many startups are
perfect for that ;)

for startup jobs:
* angel.co - browse jobs, and/or get your resume up there and see who bites.
* the monthly ycombinator/hackernews thread "Ask HN: Who is hiring?", e.g.
https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=27025922
* again ycombinator, post a resume at https://www.workatastartup.com/
* https://startup.jobs/ (sometimes stretches the definition of 'startups')
* if you're looking for something in a specific niche, this is a pretty
good list of niche job boards: https://github.com/tramcar/awesome-job-boards
* remote jobs, not all are startups: https://weworkremotely.com/

if other people send you ideas about where startup jobs are listed, I'd be
interested in seeing their ideas.

Funny I never thought to poke around startups.



Gregory & Joe thanks for the ideas!  Very useful.
