Remote OK Jobs Scraper

Remote jobs from Remote OK — with tags, locations, listed salaries, company logos and full descriptions — as clean JSON.

Remote OK is one of the largest boards for remote work, with new jobs in development, design, marketing, customer support, sales and more every day. This Actor reads Remote OK's listings and returns every job: title, company and logo, tags, location, the salary range when the employer lists one, the posting date, and the full description as HTML and plain text. Paste the home page, a tag page such as remote-dev-jobs, or a single job URL; there is no login, no API key, and no proxy to configure. Built for job aggregators, remote-work newsletters, recruiting and talent-intelligence teams, and salary research.

All data comes from Remote OK, and every job keeps its link back to its page on Remote OK. If you republish the jobs, link to that page and name Remote OK as the source.

⚡ Quick start

{
  "startUrls": [{ "url": "https://remoteok.com/remote-dev-jobs" }],
  "maxItems": 5
}

🧩 Input

Field	Type	Required	Default	Description
startUrls	array	yes	—	Remote OK pages: the home page, a tag page (remoteok.com/remote-<tag>-jobs), several tags at once (remote-python+react-jobs), or a single job (/remote-jobs/…).
maxItems	integer	no	—	Maximum number of jobs per start URL. The input form starts at 5; leave it empty to get every job Remote OK lists for the page.
includeCompanyLogos	boolean	no	true	Open each job's page to read the company logo. Adds one fast request per job; turn it off when you don't need logos.
proxyConfiguration	object	no	{ "useApifyProxy": false }	Proxy settings. Remote OK's public listings need no proxy.

Choosing a page. Open remoteok.com, click a tag such as Dev, Design or Python, and copy the address bar — for example https://remoteok.com/remote-design-jobs. A page with two tags joined by + returns the jobs that carry both.

❓ FAQ

• Do I need an API key or a Remote OK account? No. The Actor reads the same public listings any visitor sees.
• Do I need a proxy? No. It runs without one by default.
• How many jobs does a page return? Remote OK lists its most recent jobs for each page, about 100. Run the Actor on a schedule to build a longer history.
• Why are some salaries empty? Employers choose whether to list a salary. salaryMin and salaryMax are null when the job lists none.
• Can I combine tags? Yes. https://remoteok.com/remote-python+react-jobs returns jobs tagged with both. To cover several tags separately, add one URL per tag; maxItems applies to each one.
• Can I reuse the data? Remote OK asks that you link back to each job's page on Remote OK and mention Remote OK as the source. Every row keeps that link in url.
• Why did a run return fewer jobs than expected? The tag may have few recent jobs, or the tag in the URL may be misspelled; the log says when a page lists no jobs. Open an issue if something looks off.
