You're best option is finding remote jobs on your own. Recruiters work for employers--not prospective employees. You're the product in their business model, and they likely don't understand your value as well as an employer can.
A lot of remote companies are early or mid-stage, and they list directly on StackOverflow. I aggregate those in an easy-to-use format on my site here:
Since you can reach out to the companies this way directly, you have an advantage in that you can craft a cover letter and communicate directly with a person of influence.
Hired does have companies hiring remote engineers on the platform — so definitely signup & ask your talent advocate for help matching to the right roles.
I've been meaning to write up a roundup of companies with entirely remote teams (technical or all-company) — but in the absence of that, I know Toptal, Buffer, Dribbble, Invision, Zapier, and Github all have remote (or partially remote) technical teams.

> Recruiters work for employers
Just curious if there are recruiters who specialize in working for remote employers.
Both of these websites seem to fetch jobs from multiple sources (which I find to be a good thing when looking for remote jobs).
