Heroes are people, too.

Hi! You’re reading the Pittsburgh edition of This Week in Jobs (TWIJ), a weekly newsletter written by our team at Technical.ly in partnership with InnovatePGH and the Pittsburgh Innovation District. Each week we put together for you a slate of news and fresh job opportunities in the ‘burgh. If you’re not already subscribed, you can do so here.


In the many remembrances of the actor Chadwick Boseman, who passed away Friday, one power he held was the ability to make heroic characters feel real. In a world that can feel filled with Walter White- and Tony Soprano-style antiheroes, Boseman’s work is a reminder that valor isn’t the stuff of fairy tales.

So shake off the haters and the what-ifs and get your proverbial vibranium suit on. We got some news from our Technical.ly reporters about how the world is still opening up in many ways, and we got tons of new opportunities for you to go forth with.

The News

As part of Civic Tech Month, Technical.ly is devoting some of its reporting this month to how the tech world as we know it, is changing the way government does business, from 311 apps to online voter registration. Follow along with our coverage and reach out with story ideas here.

Find out how Pittsburgh institutions are developing a workforce to meet the demand of the city’s booming tech economy, Technical.ly’s latest on the Pittsburgh scene. Check it out and you may discover a new pathway to your next career move.

Get yourself something nice, because a survey from Upwork published last week estimates that the surge in people working from home has produced a $90-billion economic benefit.
