Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases. In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours, and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store. In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server. Actors are written with capital "A". ## How to integrate an Actor? If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects. You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready. The best way to integrate Actors is as follows. In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js.md): ```bash npm install apify-client ``` In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.md): ```bash pip install apify-client ``` In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): ````bash # MacOS / Linux curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash # Windows irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex ```bash In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp.md). If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md). For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below. For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt). # README ## BuiltIn Jobs Scraper - Tech Hiring Data Scrape job listings from **BuiltIn**, one of the best-known tech job boards for startups, software companies and digital employers. Get job title, hiring company, company profile URL, location, remote/hybrid flag, salary range, seniority and the direct BuiltIn job URL. Export to JSON/CSV/Excel, run on a schedule, call via API, or connect to Make, Zapier or n8n. ### What is the BuiltIn Jobs Scraper? BuiltIn is a strong source for technology hiring signals. Companies use it to promote engineering, product, design, data, sales, marketing and operations roles, often with salary ranges and remote/hybrid work details. This actor turns BuiltIn search pages into structured data that can be used for recruiting, job aggregation, salary research, market intelligence and lead generation. Paste a BuiltIn search URL, or enter a keyword such as `python`, `data engineer`, `product manager`, `sales`, `designer` or `devops`. The actor fetches the public search-result pages over plain HTTP and parses the server-rendered job cards. It does not require a BuiltIn account, browser automation, proxies or an API key, which keeps runs fast and inexpensive. ### What data does it extract? - **Job title** - **Hiring company** - **Company profile URL** - **Location** or multi-location marker - **Remote / hybrid / onsite work type** - **Posted date** as shown by BuiltIn - **Seniority level** - **Salary min, max and currency** where shown - **Company profile URL** for hiring-company enrichment - **Direct BuiltIn job URL** - **Stable job ID** parsed from the URL ### Input | Field | Type | Description | |-------|------|-------------| | `searchUrls` | array | BuiltIn search URLs to scrape exactly. | | `keyword` | string | Optional keyword or role used when no URLs are supplied. | | `location` | string | Optional location filter for keyword searches. | | `remoteOnly` | boolean | Request BuiltIn's remote filter for keyword searches. | | `maxResults` | integer | Maximum jobs to return per search. | ### Example input ```json { "keyword": "python", "remoteOnly": false, "maxResults": 50 } ```` You can also paste a filtered BuiltIn URL: ```json { "searchUrls": ["https://builtin.com/jobs/dev-engineering/python"], "maxResults": 100 } ``` ### Output Each item is one job listing: ```json { "job_id": "10044396", "title": "Senior Lead Software Engineer, Fullstack (Typescript/Nodejs/Python)", "company": "Capital One", "company_url": "https://builtin.com/company/capital-one", "location": "3 Locations", "work_type": "Hybrid", "is_remote": false, "posted": "4 Hours Ago", "seniority": "Senior level", "salary_min": 209000, "salary_max": 262000, "salary_currency": "USD", "url": "https://builtin.com/job/senior-lead-software-engineer-fullstack-typescript-nodejs-python/10044396", "search": "https://builtin.com/jobs/dev-engineering/python" } ``` ### Use cases - **Recruitment lead generation** - find tech companies actively hiring for a role, language or function. - **Salary research** - collect salary bands for engineering, product, data and business roles where BuiltIn publishes compensation. - **Remote-work tracking** - monitor remote, hybrid and onsite availability across tech job categories. - **Job-board aggregation** - add BuiltIn listings to your own job feed or internal talent dashboard. - **Market intelligence** - track which companies are expanding engineering, AI, product, sales or operations teams. - **Sales prospecting** - hiring is a strong buying signal for tools, services, recruiting help and infrastructure vendors. ### Workflow and data quality For best results, build your search on BuiltIn first, then paste the filtered URL into `searchUrls`. This preserves BuiltIn's own filters and gives the actor a precise target. For monitoring, create one Apify task per segment, such as `python`, `data engineer`, `remote product manager` or `cybersecurity`, and schedule the task daily. Use `job_id` or `url` as the deduplication key. Keep the `search` field in your database so you know which segment produced each record. BuiltIn can show multi-location jobs as "2 Locations" or "3 Locations"; preserve that value and open the returned URL if you need the complete location list. Salary fields are returned only when the listing card exposes salary on the search page. The scraper reads server-rendered job cards, not screenshots. Missing fields are returned as null rather than guessed. It de-duplicates across pages and stops when a page has no new jobs. ### FAQ **Do I need a BuiltIn account?** No. The actor reads public search-result pages. **Does it use a browser?** No. It uses plain HTTP and parses the HTML job cards, which keeps it fast and reliable. **Can I scrape remote jobs?** Yes. Use BuiltIn's filters and paste the resulting URL, or enable `remoteOnly` for keyword searches. **Does it include salary?** Yes, when BuiltIn displays a salary range on the job card. Otherwise salary fields are null. **Can it paginate?** Yes. The actor adds BuiltIn's `page` parameter until it reaches `maxResults` or no new jobs are found. **Can I filter by company or location?** Use BuiltIn's own filters in the browser and paste the final URL into `searchUrls`. **How fresh is the data?** It is fetched live from BuiltIn when the actor runs. **Can I export the output?** Yes. Apify supports JSON, CSV, Excel, API access, webhooks and integrations. **Is this useful for lead generation?** Yes. The output includes companies that are actively hiring, which is a strong commercial intent signal. **Is it legal?** The actor collects publicly available job-listing information. You are responsible for using the data in line with BuiltIn's terms and applicable laws. ### You might also like - [HiringCafe Scraper](https://apify.com/benthepythondev/hiring-cafe-scraper) - rich job and company data. - [StepStone Scraper](https://apify.com/benthepythondev/stepstone-scraper) - European jobs and hiring-company data. - [The Muse Jobs Scraper](https://apify.com/benthepythondev/themuse-jobs-scraper) - jobs by category, level and location. - [Website Contact Extractor](https://apify.com/benthepythondev/website-contact-extractor) - enrich hiring companies with emails and phone numbers. **Keywords:** BuiltIn scraper, BuiltIn jobs scraper, BuiltIn API, scrape BuiltIn jobs, tech jobs data, startup jobs scraper, remote tech jobs, salary data scraper, recruiting leads, hiring company data, software engineering jobs, product manager jobs, job board scraper, BuiltIn job listings, tech hiring intelligence, Apify jobs. # Actor input Schema ## `searchUrls` (type: `array`): Paste BuiltIn job search URLs to scrape exactly.
