It seems too good to be true: Companies that pay big but let you never commute to the office again. But there are work-from-home jobs that pay six figures—and let you work wherever you want.

The site Remote.co, which lists work-from-home job openings, rounded up seven positions that had active job listings as of May 29, and offer salaries of $100,000 or more, according to PayScale data. (Sometimes companies calculate pay based on where you live, to balance out with the cost of living, while others pay based on their main office location.) All of the positions are high level and in fields with high demand, like technology and healthcare, and allow employees to work from home 100 percent of the time.

Here are the jobs that pay big and offer major flexibility, so start polishing up that resume:
