Wellfound startup job search

Search Wellfound (formerly AngelList) startup job listings by role, location, and remote preference, and collect structured job records with title, company, compensation, location, and posting details.

Why use this actor?

• Role-based search — search by job title or keyword (e.g. software engineer, data scientist) and get matching startup jobs.
• Location and remote filters — narrow results by city or restrict to remote-only roles.
• Compensation parsing — each record carries a structured salary range with currency and interval (yearly/hourly) where the listing exposes it.
• Company context — every job links back to its company profile and logo.
• Recency filter — optionally keep only jobs posted within the last N hours.
• Consistent dataset output — every job follows the same predictable structure for easy export to JSON, CSV, or Excel.

Input

search is required. All other fields are optional.

Field	Type	Default	Description
search	string	software engineer	Role or keyword to search for. Omit to scrape the featured jobs carousel.
location	string	(empty)	City filter, e.g. San Francisco, CA.
remote	boolean	false	Restrict results to remote roles only.
results	integer	15	Maximum number of job results to return (minimum 1).
offset	integer	0	Number of results to skip for pagination.
hoursOld	integer	0	Only include jobs posted within this many hours. 0 = no filter.
maxPages	integer	5	Maximum search-result pages to crawl (minimum 1).
proxy	string	(empty)	Optional HTTP proxy URL. Leave empty to use the actor's default anti-bot proxy.

Example input

{
  "search": "software engineer",
  "location": "San Francisco, CA",
  "remote": true,
  "results": 15,
  "hoursOld": 168,
  "maxPages": 5
}

Output

The actor pushes one dataset item per job. A representative result:

{
  "id": "4574754",
  "title": "Software Engineer",
  "company_name": "Allara Health",
  "job_url": "https://wellfound.com/jobs/4574754-software-engineer",
  "location": "New York",
  "description": "Allara Health is a comprehensive women's health provider...",
  "company_url": "https://wellfound.com/company/allara",
  "company_logo": "https://photos.wellfound.com/startups/i/10245614-...-medium_jpg.jpg",
  "job_type": "fulltime",
  "interval": "yearly",
  "min_amount": 150000,
  "max_amount": 175000,
  "currency": "USD",
  "date_posted": "2026-08-11",
  "is_remote": false
}

Fields that the listing does not expose (for example a missing salary) are returned as null rather than invented.

Limitations

• Wellfound (formerly AngelList) protects listings with an anti-bot system; results depend on what is publicly displayed at run time.
• Compensation is returned only when the listing shows a parseable salary; some jobs omit it.
• Salary range and posting-date fields can change as Wellfound updates its page structure.
• The actor is a search-based scraper, not a full directory crawler; it returns up to results jobs across at most maxPages pages.

Use the collected information in accordance with Wellfound's terms, applicable privacy requirements, and your organization's data-use policies.
