startup-jobs-scraper

startup-jobs-scraper is a Node.js and TypeScript scraper library for startup.jobs. It gives you importable functions for fetching startup job listings, remote jobs, and enriched startup job details, and the same codebase also runs as an Apify Actor.

Why use it

• Scrape startup.jobs from Node.js with a small importable API
• Fetch startup job listings with Algolia-backed search
• Optionally enrich each listing by opening the job detail page
• Reuse the same shared code in local scripts, apps, and an Apify Actor

Install

$npminstall startup-jobs-scraper

Browser binaries are not downloaded automatically on install. If you want detail-page enrichment, install them explicitly:

$npx playwright install

Usage

import{ scrapeStartupJobsViaAlgolia }from'startup-jobs-scraper';
const jobs =awaitscrapeStartupJobsViaAlgolia({
 query:'software engineer',
 requestedCount:20,
 enrichDetails:true,
});

This works well for searches like startup software engineer jobs, design jobs, product jobs, remote startup jobs, and location-filtered startup job listings.

API

scrapeStartupJobsViaAlgolia(options) returns an array of normalized job records.

Supported options include:

• query
• requestedCount
• enrichDetails
• location
• aroundLatLng
• aroundRadius
• page
• hitsPerPage
• since
• hasSalary
• salaryMinUsd
• salaryMaxUsd
• workplaceType
• employmentType
• experienceBucket
• facetFilters
• filters

The scraper now builds Algolia filters for the common startup.jobs fields and still lets you pass raw filters and facetFilters when you need an escape hatch.

const jobs =awaitscrapeStartupJobsViaAlgolia({
 query:'software engineer',
 location:'London, United Kingdom',
 aroundLatLng:'51.5074,-0.1278',
 aroundRadius:'all',
 since:'7d',
 hasSalary:true,
 salaryMinUsd:100000,
 workplaceType:['remote'],
 employmentType:['full-time'],
 experienceBucket:['3-6'],
 hitsPerPage:50,
 page:0,
 enrichDetails:false,
});

When enrichDetails is false, the library returns records built directly from Algolia hits without loading each job page.

If you pass location without aroundLatLng, the scraper resolves the place name through the startup.jobs Algolia Places index and uses the returned coordinates automatically. If you pass both, aroundLatLng wins.

Returned records include fields such as:

• title
• employer
• jobUrl
• employerUrl
• location
• salary
• disciplines
• applicationLink
• jobDescription

Example output

[
{
 title:'Senior Software Engineer',
 employer:'Example Startup',
 jobUrl:'https://startup.jobs/example-job',
 employerUrl:'https://startup.jobs/company/example-startup',
 location:'Remote | Europe',
 salary:'$120,000 - $150,000 per year',
 disciplines:'Engineering | full-time',
 applicationLink:'https://startup.jobs/apply/example-job',
 jobDescription:'...'
}
]

Apify Actor

The same codebase can also run as an Apify Actor, so you can use the shared library locally and deploy the actor version separately.

For local actor-style runs:

$npm run actor:start:dev

Useful environment variables for local runs:

STARTUPJOBS_QUERY="software engineer"\
STARTUPJOBS_LOCATION="London, United Kingdom"\
STARTUPJOBS_AROUND_RADIUS=25000\
STARTUPJOBS_MAX_RESULTS=70\
npm run actor:start:dev
