Why this grade
This listing scored 64/100, which is a C. It lost the most ground on pay transparency.
- Freshness 15 / 15 How recently it was posted. Older postings are likelier to be filled or abandoned.
- Remote clarity 15 / 15 Whether "remote" means anywhere, or is quietly restricted to one country.
- Description depth 14 / 20 How much the posting actually says about the work, measured in characters of real text.
- Pay transparency 12 / 25 A published salary range, worth more than any other single factor because it is what a candidate cannot find out without applying.
- Corroboration 5 / 10 Whether more than one source carries this listing.
- Role specificity 3 / 10 Whether the listing is tagged well enough to tell what the role actually is.
Every figure above is arithmetic over the posting itself — its salary field, its text, its age, its tags and how many sources carry it. How the grades work →

Geospatial)| Tuscaloosa, AL | REMOTE (US) | Full-time | $110k–$159k + equity
City Detect uses AI and computer vision to map the physical world for cities. Sensors capture street-level conditions so local governments can find and respond to issues like blight and track how neighborhoods change over time. Founded in 2021, Series A, working with municipalities across Texas, California, Florida, and beyond.
We're looking for a frontend-leaning full stack engineer with a strong eye for design to own the map-heavy parts of our product. That means interactive maps, spatial data explorers and dashboards that city staff use to make decisions.
Stack: React/TypeScript, Python/FastAPI on AWS Lambda, Aurora PostgreSQL + PostGIS. Experience with Mapbox, deck.gl, Leaflet, D3, vector tiles/H3, or nation-scale OSM data is a big plus.
Mid to senior level. Small team, close work with the founders, real ownership.
Process: phone screen, portfolio/design review, 1–2 technical conversations, references, then a chat with our CEO. No LeetCode.
Perks: unlimited PTO, health/dental/vision, $100/mo wellness stipend, team retreats twice a year.
