Lever Jobs Scraper: Public Job Boards, Salaries & Descriptions

Export live job postings from public Lever company job boards (jobs.lever.co/<company>) with full descriptions, structured requirement sections, parsed compensation ranges (salaryMin, salaryMax, salaryCurrency, salaryRange), locations, workplace types (onsite, hybrid, remote), departments, teams and direct application links. No login, cookies or API key needed.

Works out of the box with companies using Lever (palantir, spotify, shieldai, sonatype, and thousands more). Running with empty input {} fetches Shield AI and Palantir's live boards so you can test with one click.

For AI agents and MCP clients

• One-line tool description: Fetch live open job listings, parsed salary ranges, remote status, requirement sections, and full descriptions from one or more public Lever company job boards (jobs.lever.co/<slug>), filtered by keyword, location, or remote-only.
• Apify MCP endpoint: https://mcp.apify.com?tools=datamule/lever-jobs-scraper
• High-value agent workflows:
  1. Recruiting & job-copilot agents: Match candidate profiles against live engineering/AI roles with verified salary floors (salaryMin >= 150000) and remote/location filters.
  2. Competitor hiring & GTM intelligence: Track headcount expansion across target enterprise accounts by department, team, and country/city.
  3. Compensation benchmarking: Aggregate published salary bands (salaryMin, salaryMax, salaryCurrency, salaryInterval) across companies using Lever.

Pricing & budget control

Pay per event: US$0.35 per 1,000 delivered jobs ($0.00035 per job on the Free plan, tiered down to $0.000175 on Diamond), with no actor-start fee beyond platform defaults. You pay only for jobs written to the dataset, and full descriptions + salary data are included at no extra cost.

Your Maximum cost per run is strictly respected: the Actor checks remaining budget before every board request and clips delivered batches via Apify's charging manager so you are never billed past your cap.

Python API quickstart

import os, json, urllib.request

token = os.environ["APIFY_TOKEN"]
url = f"https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/datamule~lever-jobs-scraper/run-sync-get-dataset-items?token={token}&maxTotalChargeUsd=0.05"
payload = json.dumps({"boards": ["shieldai", "palantir"], "keyword": "engineer", "maxJobs": 20}).encode()
req = urllib.request.Request(url, data=payload, headers={"Content-Type": "application/json"}, method="POST")
jobs = json.loads(urllib.request.urlopen(req, timeout=120).read())
for j in jobs[:5]:
    print(j["boardSlug"], "|", j["title"], "|", j["salaryRange"], "|", j["jobUrl"])

Scope & limits

• Queries the documented public Lever Postings API (https://api.lever.co/v0/postings/{slug}?mode=json).
• This Actor extracts company boards you name in boards; it does not crawl the web to discover unknown company slugs.
• Salary fields are populated whenever the employer publishes salaryRange on Lever; otherwise they are null.
• Not affiliated with or endorsed by Lever / Employ Inc.
