Verdict
JobGet is a legitimate, reachable company with a real website and careers section, and the posting uses a proper online application portal. However, the posting claims a Vancouver, BC location while the company's only confirmed office is in Boston, MA—a significant geographic mismatch for a senior engineering role. This inconsistency, combined with the lack of evidence for a Vancouver presence, raises moderate fraud concerns despite the employer's overall legitimacy.
