Jeff Baker — Co-Founder

Hey there! I'm Jeff, co-founder of Beach Commute and your friendly neighborhood remote-work enthusiast. 🌎 I've spent years traveling the globe, from the beaches of Mexico and Colombia to the deserts of Morocco and Lion's Head in Cape Town, South Africa...all while working fully remote. Along the way, I've discovered firsthand how life-changing it is to choose where you live based on what fulfills your soul, rather than where your office happens to be located. 💼 At Beach Commute, we're not just advocates of remote work, we're experts in helping YOU make it happen. With our enormous database of 300+ companies, the Anywhere Atlas, and our actionable daily remote job alerts (no hybrid roles, sneaky "return-to-office" fine print, or endless scrolling through shady listings), we've created THE go-to resource for aspiring digital nomads and remote workers. We also help workers actually get hired for fully-remote roles with our awesome Remote Job Fasttrack Program. 🎙️ I also co-host the Beach Commute podcast, where we dive deep into everything you need to thrive remotely. From landing your dream job and navigating nomadic lifestyles, to hilarious travel misadventures and inspiring interviews with successful remote workers. 💡 Here's what lights me up: • Empowering thousands of people to leave soul-sucking office routines behind. • Sharing transparent insights about fully remote companies (the good, the bad, the amazing). • Building authentic connections—online and across the world. Whether you're dreaming of working from a hammock on the beach 🏖️, a bustling city café ☕️, or a cozy mountain cabin 🏔️, my mission is simple: 👉 Help you break free from the traditional work grind and design a life filled with freedom, adventure, and purpose. If you're curious about making remote work a reality, or just want to chat about the best tacos in Puerto Escondido, send me a message or connect here on LinkedIn. Let's redefine what work-life balance really means.

Owner

Jul 2022 – Present · 3 yrs 8 mos · California, United States

I train organizations, small businesses, and individuals on how to do the 5% of SEO that creates 95% of results, in a fraction of the time. Offering both a 19 module SEO training course (explained in stupid-simple language), and one-one-one trainings, my students leave my master class empowered to do their own SEO work with the tools to create actual business outcomes. I also offer very limited consulting services as availability comes up.
