Tech & Remote Glossary

Stop getting lost in interviews and job descriptions

The job market, especially within tech and global companies, has developed its own dialect. Not understanding these acronyms can make you lose valuable opportunities or poorly negotiate your contract. To end this problem, we created the Definitive Glossary for the Remote Professional.

🏢 Work Models & Routine

Async (Asynchronous Work)
A communication model where responses don't need to be immediate. Instead of back-to-back meetings, the team relies on well-structured documents, threads, and messages. It's the gold standard for global companies spanning multiple time zones.
Sync (Synchronous Work)
The opposite of Async. It requires the team to be online and available at the same time for meetings, live chats, and real-time collaboration.
Daily / Stand-up
A quick daily meeting (usually 15 minutes) common in Agile (Scrum) methodologies. The team answers three questions: What did I do yesterday? What will I do today? Are there any blockers?
All-Hands / Town Hall
A company-wide meeting involving all employees. Usually led by the founders (C-Levels) to present results, new goals, and answer team questions.
1:1 (One-on-One)
A recurring individual meeting between a professional and their direct manager. It is used for career alignment, feedback, and problem-solving, not just for project status updates.

💰 Contracts, Benefits & Compensation

PTO (Paid Time Off)
Instead of strict, categorized leave policies, modern US companies usually offer a flexible pool of days (e.g., 20 days of PTO, or even "Unlimited PTO") that you can use for vacations, sick days, or personal matters, while receiving your regular compensation.
Equity / Stock Options
Company ownership. The startup offers you the right to buy shares at a heavily discounted strike price in the future. If the company grows, goes public, or is acquired, these shares can be highly lucrative.
Vesting (Vesting Schedule)
The rule that controls your Equity. It usually lasts 4 years. You don't get all the shares on day one; you "earn" them gradually as you stay with the company. A "1-year Cliff" means you must stay for at least one year to receive your first batch of shares.
RSUs (Restricted Stock Units)
Unlike Stock Options (where you have the right to buy the stock), RSUs are actual shares the company grants you as a bonus or part of your compensation package, following a strict Vesting schedule.
Independent Contractor (1099 / B2B)
The most common international hiring model for global talent working for US companies. You act as a service provider (business-to-business), receiving the gross salary (often six-figure compensation) without standard local payroll tax deductions at the source.

🤖 Recruitment & Hiring Process

ATS (Applicant Tracking System)
The "robot" that reads your resume. Software like Greenhouse, Ashby, and Workday are used to filter candidates by keywords before a human even looks at the document. (Pro tip: this is why your resume must be clean, semantic, and have the right keywords).
JD (Job Description)
The document that lists the responsibilities, technical requirements, and benefits of the open position.
Cultural Fit
The interview stage that evaluates if your core values, communication style, and worldview align with the company's culture. This is the ultimate test of your Soft Skills.
Onboarding
The integration process. It's the period of your first few weeks at the company, where you get your access credentials, learn about the culture, study the internal documentation, and understand how the product works.

🚀 How to use this to your advantage?

The secret isn't just knowing what these acronyms mean, but using them actively. If during an interview for a premium tech role you ask, "How does your PTO policy and Vesting schedule work?", the recruiter will immediately perceive you as a high-level professional, familiar with the global market standards.

The remote job market requires preparation. And having the right vocabulary is the first big step to securing six-figure proposals and standing out among thousands of applicants.

Expert Tip

Why the Data Era Has Never Been More Profitable

Discover how BI professionals are shaping the corporate future, driving strategic decision-making, and landing the best global remote jobs in the market.

Reading time: 5 minutes | Category: Data / BI

The Data Market Explosion

A decade ago, oil was considered the world's most valuable resource; today, that title indisputably belongs to data. However, raw data without interpretation is just noise. It is exactly at this turning point that the Business Intelligence (BI) market exploded in demand and financial valuation.

Companies of all sizes, from agile startups to global unicorns, have realized they can no longer base their decisions on guesswork. The BI professional has become the architect of financial and operational predictability. According to Gartner, in its annual reports on the Magic Quadrant for Analytics and BI, adopting business intelligence platforms is no longer a competitive advantage, but a matter of corporate survival.

The Required Profile: Way Beyond the Dashboard

The biggest mistake professionals make when trying to transition into Business Intelligence is believing the job comes down to creating pretty visual panels (Dashboards). Today's market, especially international companies paying six-figure salaries, requires a deep analytical mindset combined with solid technical skills.

Tech Recruiters are configuring their ATS systems (like Greenhouse and Ashby) to filter candidates who master the following verticals:

  • Data Modeling and ETL: The ability to Extract, Transform, and Load data from multiple sources into a Data Warehouse or Data Lake.
  • Query Languages: Advanced proficiency in SQL remains the backbone of any data operation.
  • Advanced Visualization: Tools like Microsoft Power BI (with deep knowledge in DAX), Tableau, and Looker are mandatory requirements.
  • Critical Thinking & Business Acumen: As highlighted by the Harvard Business Review, data professionals must translate technical complexity into clear answers for C-Level executives.

Compensation and the Global Job Route (US Remote)

The Business Intelligence market is perfectly adaptable to the Remote Worldwide model. Because the work essentially deals with cloud infrastructure and logical analysis, geographical barriers have been completely eliminated.

"The ability to analyze massive volumes of data and extract actionable insights is the most valued skill in the new digital economy. The global market is literally buying intelligence."

For global professionals, this represents a golden opportunity. North American and European startups are actively seeking Senior BI talent to work remotely, offering compensation in strong currencies (USD and EUR) through B2B contracts. Base salaries that easily surpass the $80,000 to $120,000+ range (six-figure compensation) are a common reality for Mid-level and Senior analysts who have fluent English and a robust analytical portfolio.

How to Stand Out in the Technical Interview

To break through the technical interview barrier for premium BI positions, candidates must prepare a problem-oriented portfolio. Instead of presenting a generic sales dashboard, showcase a documented case study. Show the data source, how the SQL was structured for cleansing, which predictive or statistical models were applied, and, most importantly, what was the financial impact (ROI) of that analysis.
