WeWorkRemotely Jobs Scraper

Scrape remote job listings from WeWorkRemotely.com — the largest remote work community with over 3 million visitors. Extract job titles, descriptions, salaries, company info, applicant country requirements, skills, and more. Export to JSON, CSV, or Excel.

What This Scraper Does

• Scrape job listings from category pages, search results, employment-type pages, or individual job detail pages
• Extract full job details including descriptions, salary ranges (min/max), employment type, company info, and applicant country requirements
• Filter by category — Back-End, Front-End, Full-Stack, DevOps, Design, Product, Sales, Customer Support, and more
• Search by keyword — find specific roles like "python developer", "react", "devops engineer"
• Filter by employment type — Full-Time, Contract
• Post-filter results by country, region, time posted, job type, and minimum salary
• Choose output mode — detailed mode with full job descriptions and salary data, or fast listing-only mode

Why Use This Scraper

WeWorkRemotely is one of the most popular remote job boards, but browsing manually is time-consuming. You can't search with complex filters, compare salaries across listings, or export results in bulk. This scraper automates the entire process so you can:

• Build a pipeline of remote job leads in minutes instead of hours
• Filter jobs by the countries that accept applicants from your location
• Find jobs within your salary range using the minimum salary filter
• Track new job postings over time with the posted-date filter
• Export structured data for analysis, job boards, or recruitment tools

Quick Start

Option A: Start URLs (Recommended)

Paste one or more WeWorkRemotely URLs directly:

{
  "startUrls": [
    "https://weworkremotely.com/categories/remote-back-end-programming-jobs",
    "https://weworkremotely.com/remote-full-time-jobs",
    "https://weworkremotely.com/remote-jobs/search?term=python"
  ],
  "includeDetailPages": true,
  "maxItems": 100
}

Option B: Built-in Filters

Don't have specific URLs? Use the category, keyword, and employment-type pickers instead:

{
  "category": "remote-back-end-programming-jobs",
  "searchKeyword": "python",
  "employmentType": "full-time",
  "includeDetailPages": true,
  "maxItems": 100
}

Option C: Fast Listing-Only Mode

Get basic job info without detail pages — much faster for large-scale scraping:

{
  "startUrls": [
    "https://weworkremotely.com/categories/remote-front-end-programming-jobs"
  ],
  "includeDetailPages": false,
  "maxItems": 500
}
