Softwareentwickler:in / Automation Engineer Underwriting	Hannover Rück SE	Hannover	No

Why this one

• No login, no CV upload. Everything comes from StepStone's public search and posting pages.
• Remote policy flagged on every record, not just buried in the description text.
• Climbs its own anti-bot ladder automatically (plain request, then Apify Proxy, then a browser-grade fingerprint) only when a request is actually blocked, instead of always paying for the most expensive route.

Good to know

• StepStone's own pagination (?page=) is off-limits to robots; this actor instead rotates through job title and city combinations, each its own first page of results.
• Results follow StepStone's own search, so a city search can include a few postings from nearby or related places.
• Salary fields are empty when the employer does not publish a figure (common on this site).
• A line that carries a recruiter's e-mail address is dropped from the description: no personal contact data is collected.

Auf Deutsch

Dieser Actor liest Stellenanzeigen von StepStone aus: Titel, Unternehmen, Stadt, PLZ, Homeoffice, Gehaltsspanne, Anstellungsart, Branche, Datum und vollständige Beschreibung, als JSON, CSV oder Excel. Geeignet für Job-Alerts nach Beruf und Stadt, Jobbörsen und Gehaltsanalysen. Kein Login, kein Proxy nötig.

Who uses it

• Recruiting agencies and HR teams watch which companies hire, for which roles and at which salary, in their market.
• Job boards and aggregators feed their own site with fresh postings in a stable schema, without maintaining a parser.
• B2B sales and lead generation: a company that is hiring is a company that is buying. Filter postings by role to spot prospects early.
• Labour-market research: salaries, skills in demand, remote share and hiring volume over time.

Pricing

Pay per result: $1.20 per 1,000 postings, plus $0.01 per run start with the default 4 GB of memory. For example, 100 postings cost about $0.13. You only pay for the postings you receive, and platform usage is included in that price. Store discounts apply automatically on paid Apify plans: up to 20% off every event on the higher tiers.

Run it from your code

JavaScript:

import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

const client = new ApifyClient({ token: process.env.APIFY_TOKEN });
const run = await client.actor('bibian/stepstone-jobs-scraper').call({
  keywords: 'softwareentwickler',
  location: 'Berlin',
  maxItems: 50,
});
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();

Python:

from apify_client import ApifyClient

client = ApifyClient(token="<APIFY_TOKEN>")
run = client.actor("bibian/stepstone-jobs-scraper").call(run_input={
    "keywords": "softwareentwickler",
    "location": "Berlin",
    "maxItems": 50
})
items = client.dataset(run["defaultDatasetId"]).list_items().items

Monitor new postings daily and connect your tools

1. Schedule it. Save a task, set its publication date filter to the shortest window, and schedule it daily with Apify Schedules. Deduplicate on the id field if you keep your own copy.
2. Push the results where you work. Add an Apify integration or a webhook to the task: Google Sheets, Slack, Make, Zapier, n8n or your own endpoint, triggered at the end of every run.
3. Call it from your stack. The API and the JavaScript and Python clients return the dataset as JSON, CSV or Excel.
4. Let an AI agent use it. Through the Apify MCP server, assistants such as Claude or ChatGPT can search the Store, read this page and run the actor as a tool.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need an account, cookies or a proxy for StepStone? No. The actor reads publicly visible pages only.

Which formats can I export? JSON, CSV, Excel, XML, HTML table or RSS, from the dataset page or through the API.

Is it legal to scrape? The actor collects publicly visible postings and respects the robots.txt rules of the site. How you use the data is your responsibility: check the site's terms and the laws that apply to you, for example the GDPR.

Need another site, a missing field or a new filter? Open an issue in the Issues tab and say what you need, with an example URL if you have one. Requests are read, and the most asked ones are built next.

Need a custom version built for you? I also build private versions and custom scrapers: another site, extra fields, a specific output format, or delivery straight to Google Sheets, a database or a webhook. Open an issue in the Issues tab with what you need and an example URL, and I will reply there with a quote.

Something does not work? Open an issue in the Issues tab. Every public actor is test-run daily and the broken ones are repaired.

Did this save you time? A short review on the Store page helps other people find the actor, and tells me what to improve next.
