Thanks for all the positive comments guys! If you have any questions I'm glad to answer them!

- Tech This application uses Vue.js on the front-end, GCP cloud functions on the back end for all the processing with GCP Datastore as DB for the listings and Firebase for hosting. I wanted something that was easy to maintain and where the cost would nicely scale with the usage.

Great job :) As a front-end dev wanting to improve my design capabilities I was wondering how did you design yours? Did you just use some CSS framework and/or theme? If so, which is it? Looks great!

I'd suggest sending an email immediately on subscription, to confirm that works and doesn't go to spam.

This one looks a bit better than many. Always bothers me the number of sites based on the apparent premise that all of us want full-time and on-site traditional employment. Even the sites that cater to remote work overlook that at least some of us would prefer to freelance.

Great work. Question, Product Managers don't naturally fit in your 3 pre-determined job types. How do I get notified about them?

Also, is there a good, dedicated resource for PM jobs?

You might consider merging "NYC" and "New York City" and "New York, NY", or returning the superset of those three whenever one of those terms is entered for the location.

This is useful, good job.

Note that your search suggestion "Scala" also returns results with no reference to the language, but containing "scalable" in the text.

Ah that's a bit sloppy, thanks you for the kind words! Luckily a minor bug, I expect I'll have this fixed around tomorrow.
