Remote Jobs Scraper

Scrape remote job listings from multiple sources — remote.com, remoteok.com, and weworkremotely.com — with a single keyword search. Filter by programming language, technology, or role and get structured results including title, company, location, salary, and tags.

What does Remote Jobs Scraper do?

Remote Jobs Scraper searches three of the most popular remote job boards simultaneously and returns a unified dataset of matching jobs. Provide a keyword like Java, TypeScript, React, or Fullstack and the actor queries each source, filters results to the last 6 months, and outputs structured JSON ready for analysis, alerting, or integration with other tools.

Running on the Apify platform gives you scheduled runs, API access, proxy rotation, and integrations with tools like Zapier, Make, and Google Sheets — no infrastructure required.

Why use Remote Jobs Scraper?

• Three sources in one run — remote.com, remoteok.com, and weworkremotely.com covered simultaneously
• Salary extraction — captures salary ranges where listed
• Smart filtering — frontend languages (React, TypeScript, Vue, etc.) automatically search frontend-only categories; backend languages search full-stack and back-end categories
• Date filtering — only returns jobs posted within the last 6 months
• Structured output — consistent JSON schema across all sources with source field to identify origin

How to use Remote Jobs Scraper

1. Go to the actor page and click Try for free
2. Enter a Programming Language / Technology / Role (e.g. Java, React, Fullstack)
3. Optionally set Max Jobs to limit results (default: 100)
4. Click Start and wait for the run to complete (typically about 30 seconds)
5. Download results from the Output tab in JSON, CSV, or Excel format

Input

Example input:

{
"language":"Java",
"maxJobs":100
}

Frontend languages (JavaScript, TypeScript, React, Angular, Vue, frontend) automatically restrict weworkremotely results to front-end categories only.

Output

Each item in the dataset represents one job listing. Results are sorted newest-first within each source.

Example output:

Data fields

You can download the dataset in various formats such as JSON, HTML, CSV, or Excel from the Apify Console.

Pricing

This actor uses pay per result pricing at $2.00 per 1,000 results. You are charged per job returned, not per compute time.

A typical run searching for Java across all three sources takes under a minute and returns 50–150 jobs.

Tips

• Use specific technology names for better results — TypeScript returns more relevant results than JavaScript
• Set maxJobs to a lower number (e.g. 20) for quick checks or higher (0) for comprehensive collection
• Schedule runs daily or weekly via Apify's built-in scheduler to monitor new listings automatically
• Use the Apify API to integrate results into Slack notifications, Google Sheets, or custom dashboards

FAQ and support

Is scraping these job boards legal? This actor only collects publicly available job listing data. Always review the Terms of Service of each platform before using scraped data commercially.

Why are some jobs missing salary information? Most job listings do not include salary data. The actor captures it where explicitly published by the employer.

Some jobs don't seem relevant to my search term — why? Relevance depends on how each platform indexes jobs. weworkremotely results include all jobs in the matched category, which may occasionally include tangentially related roles.

For bugs or feature requests, please open an issue on the ../../issues. Custom scraping solutions are also available on request.
