>There are agencies and recruiters who specialize in matching freelancers with projects, seek them out and establish a relationship.

Can anyone here make some recommendations from experience?

I feel like I'd need to be a 'rockstarninjahacker' before taking remote jobs and being able to complete them (and demand enough to pay for this lifestyle)

Can't help you with the first one.

But feeling like you need to be a rockstarninjahacker is garbage. Many of my clients have no idea how to evaluate my code. The question is - can you get it done? On time? At price? to get to that point - it's do we trust you? Working on your communication skills will probably get you much further than improving your technical skills for finding/keeping freelance work.

I run one of such agencies. We are 100% remote. If you are interested contact me at hello@umamicollective.com.
