Your remote work friends
Wiggle Work is a Discord community for remote tech and tech adjacent workers to feel less isolated by connecting in a genuine, less business-bear space.
Together, we fill the existing gaps in the remote working lifestyle.
Combat Loneliness
While there are many benefits to remote work, the isolation and loneliness that many experience is very real. Join new friends for video calls, distractions, professional development, and just hang out with us in Discord all day.
Get Help
Ask the group any professional or personal questions you may have. It’s a safe, knowledgeable group of people that are happy to share their experiences and general advice—the perfect group to tap for feedback or recommendations.
Make Connections
This space is exceptional for folks that are not into traditional networking. Here, you’ll make friends first and professional connections second. The group is comprised of experienced developers, designers, project managers, and more.
Have Fun
Above all else, Wiggle Work values a casual, welcoming, warm, fun environment. We don’t take ourselves too seriously and are quick to share our favorite things from around the web, talk about LEGO, and host meme competitions.
What we get into
At Wiggle Work, you can expect daily discussion prompts, regularly scheduled video calls with and without an agenda, book banter, guest presenters, game groups, special weird events, and much more. Members are also free to own and run with their own projects and jump on impromptu coworking calls. Our most popular channels include spaces to share pet pics, post your weekly wins, job search, and talk about snacks.

The team behind the channels
"I wanted more fun, thoughtful people to connect with, so when I saw a post about Wiggle Work I decided to join. So worth it! From thoughtful daily conversation starters to async board games to fun little contests with prizes, it’s a really great place to spend your time. Fantastic people with a small group feel so everyone is actually interacting with each other. You should join us!"
Linda Thompson Software Engineer
"I joined Wiggle Work in search of a community to replace that of in-office coworkers, and found myself in the company of smart, creative, interesting people all around the world."
Nik Kantar Software Engineer
"Wiggle Work is the set of peers I need to stay sane as an independent contractor. It's small enough to get to know people, and large enough to have a lot of variety in the people. Key to it's caring culture is having Joni as our moderator. She's a skilled community manager for sure."
Ethan Schlenker Engineering Management Coach
"My reason to join was wanting to have a stable office kitchen meeting place regardless of where I am or for whom I work. So far Wiggle Work is that place for me."
