Subreddit rules check

Can you promote here?
Promotion is allowed only with moderator permission (or inside designated threads). A short, honest modmail before posting costs two minutes and functions as a safe-conduct pass; skipping it is the most common avoidable removal.
From the rules · Add appropriate flair (required); jobs must be paid (no free labor); follow the subreddit’s hiring post guidance.
Links
The rules clearly allow links. A plain-text mention still often outperforms a URL from a young account.
What this community rewards
Dominant post formats: showcase, data
Headline: start with [Hiring] plus bracketed location/tags (e.g. [Hiring] [Remote] [USA] - Backend Engineer). Write in first person/company voice, 2–6 short paragraphs: role, required experience, comp range, how to apply/link. Tone: concise, conversational, helpful. Upvoted: clear job posts with salary/location and application link; removed: resume dumps, unpaid gigs or unrelated self-promo.
Arriving in the local format matters: cross-posting the same text everywhere reads as tourist instantly. The wider method is in the Reddit playbook.
Classified mechanically from the community's published rules and recent top posts, last checked July 2026. Rules change and moderators have the final say: verify at r/techjobs's rules page before posting anything that matters.
Thread Otter checks this before every send
These profiles power the product: promo-banned communities never receive a promotional draft, drafts arrive in the local format, and a fact-check gate plus human pacing protect the account doing the talking.
