Field notes:

• salaryMin / salaryMax are numbers in salaryCurrency (ISO code; Indian lakh values are expanded, so ₹8L is 800000). salaryText, equityText and compensationText keep Wellfound's original wording. All are null when the listing shows no compensation.
• equityMin / equityMax are percentages; "No equity" gives 0 / 0.
• remoteMode is remote, onsite or onsite_or_remote; remote is Wellfound's boolean flag.
• company.size is the headcount band (1-10, 11-50, 51-200, 201-500, 501-1000, 1001-5000, ...); company.stage is the funding stage badge (Early Stage, Growth Stage, Scale Stage) when Wellfound shows one.
• postedAt is when the listing went live. description is Markdown; switch it off with includeDescription: false.
• position is the job's rank within its search across pages; page is the Wellfound results page it came from.

The key-value store record STATS holds, per search, the delivered count, how many listings Wellfound reports for the search, pages fetched and min/median/max salary midpoints per currency.

Input

Field	Default	Notes
roles	["software engineer"]	Job titles, one per line. Any wording works; it is turned into Wellfound's URL slug (software engineer → software-engineer)
locations	["remote"]	Cities as they appear in wellfound.com URLs (london, san francisco, new york, berlin) or remote. Empty = all locations
remoteOnly	false	Use Wellfound's remote listings for every role and skip on-site jobs
startUrls	—	Paste wellfound.com listing pages: /role/l/<role>/<city>, /role/r/<role>, /role/<role>, /location/<city>, /remote, /jobs
maxResults	100	Cap across the whole run
maxResultsPerQuery	100	Cap for each role and location combination
includeDescription	true	Include the Markdown job description
proxyConfiguration	Apify residential	Wellfound blocks Apify's datacenter IPs with HTTP 403s

Every role is combined with every location. A location Wellfound does not recognise is skipped with a warning in the log (Wellfound would otherwise silently show all locations). Wellfound serves 20 companies per page with up to three highlighted jobs each, so a search typically yields 30–60 jobs per page; pagination continues until your cap or the last public page.

Pricing

Pay per job listing delivered. Duplicate listings within a run are removed before charging. Searches that return nothing cost nothing.

Speed & cost

Runs in roughly 30–60 seconds per 100 results; a 100-job run costs about $0.20 in job events plus roughly $0.02 of platform usage.
