This Week in Jobs: Bridge the gap to your next role with these 22 tech openings

Editor’s note: Every week we ship an email newsletter featuring the region’s most exciting career opportunities. We’ve lovingly called it This Week in Jobs (aka TWIJ — “twidge.”). Below is this week’s edition; it’s meant to live in your inbox. Sign up for the newsletter here.

Today marks the 139th anniversary of the opening of the Brooklyn Bridge. At the time, in 1883, it was the largest suspension bridge built to date.

What makes this feat notable is how the technology grew. The suspension bridge made it easier to connect further and further spans of space, thanks to the bridge’s ability to create stability, even across major distances.

You may not be an engineer designing bridges, but there’s something to be said for bridging the gap between two faraway places, be that physical locations, or ideas.

You may think that a new opportunity is out of reach, but you can stretch your knowledge and experiences further than you realize.
