Remote Jobs Scraper

Scrape remote jobs from six boards in one table: Himalayas, Remote OK, Remotive, Jobicy, Working Nomads and We Work Remotely. Every row has the title, company, category and tags, employment type, where candidates may be based, the salary as numbers with a currency, the posting date and the link, in the same schema for all six boards. Filter by keyword, location, type and salary, and schedule it with new jobs only to get a daily job alert.

You pay only for jobs returned, from $0.50 per 1,000, with no start fee. The $5 of monthly credit in Apify's Free plan covers about 5,000 jobs, so you can try it for free.

Why use Remote Jobs Scraper?

• Six boards, one schema. Each board writes salary, type and location its own way. Here every row uses the same fields: salaryMin and salaryMax as numbers, employmentType as full_time or contract, postedAt as a timestamp.
• Keywords search Himalayas itself. Your keywords go to the Himalayas search, so matches come from its whole list of about 100,000 jobs, not just the newest page. The other boards are filtered as they are read.
• Location by name or code. locations accepts Germany or DE, USA or US. Jobs open anywhere always pass, and a region such as North America Only matches the United States, Canada and Mexico.
• Filters are free. Jobs removed by a filter, duplicates and expired listings are never charged.
• Only new jobs, on a schedule. In new-only mode each run returns just the jobs you have not received before, and you pay only for those.

Get a daily alert of new jobs

Turn on Return only jobs new since the last run (newOnly), give the run a Watch name or save it as a task, and schedule it daily. Each run returns only jobs that were not in any earlier run, so every job reaches you once and you pay only for new ones. Send the results to Slack, email or Google Sheets from the Integrations tab.

Tips and limitations

• Each board has its own reach: see the table above. For one board in full, our Himalayas, Remote OK and We Work Remotely scrapers add that board's own filters, such as Himalayas search by country, seniority and company, Remote OK tags and We Work Remotely categories (links below).
• Salary fields are null where a board publishes no pay; the Minimum salary filter keeps those jobs, because an absent salary is not a low one.
• The SUMMARY record shows how many jobs each board returned and how many each filter dropped, so you can see which filter to loosen.

Integrations and API

Connect the actor to Make, Zapier, n8n, Google Sheets, Slack or any webhook, or call it from your own code. With the Python client:

from apify_client import ApifyClient

client = ApifyClient("<YOUR_API_TOKEN>")
run = client.actor("deriverge/remote-jobs-scraper").call(run_input={"keywords": ["python"], "locations": ["Europe"], "maxItems": 200})
for job in client.dataset(run["defaultDatasetId"]).iterate_items():
    print(job["title"], job["company"], job["sourceName"], job.get("salaryMin"))

The API tab on this page has the same call for Node.js and cURL, and AI agents can run the actor through the Apify MCP server.

Is it legal to scrape remote job boards?

The actor reads job listings that the boards publish openly for candidates, through their public feeds and interfaces, and collects no personal data. Several boards ask that you link back to the original listing and name them as the source when you republish; every row has the listing's url for that.

FAQ

Which boards are covered?

Himalayas, Remote OK, Remotive, Jobicy, Working Nomads and We Work Remotely. Pick any of them in Sources.

How are duplicates handled?

Each job is keyed by board and ID and returned once per run. A vacancy posted on two boards appears once per board, each with its own link.

Why do some boards return few jobs?

That is what their public feeds carry: Remote OK and Jobicy serve the 100 newest, Remotive a small selection. Himalayas and We Work Remotely return far more.

Do I need an API key or proxies?

No. The actor reads the board's public data over plain HTTP, so a run takes seconds.
