StepStone Jobs Scraper — Titles, Companies, Locations & Apply Links

Scrape job listings from StepStone (stepstone.de) by keyword and location and get them back as clean, structured JSON. Give it plain search terms or full StepStone jobs URLs and pull job title, company, company page link, location, home-office flag, posted time, badges, a description snippet and a direct apply link. It uses fast, clean HTTP with no login and no browser, so runs are quick and cheap. No account, no API key. Built for recruiters, job-board builders and labor-market analysts in the German-speaking market.

Features

• 🔎 Keyword + location search — pass searches as "software engineer|Berlin" lines, or feed full stepstone.de/jobs URLs.
• 🔗 Advanced start URLs — supply a startUrls request list of {"url":"..."} jobs pages for precise control.
• 🏢 Company links — captures both the employer name and its StepStone companyUrl where present.
• 🏠 Home-office flag — every record carries a boolean workFromHome so you can filter remote-friendly roles.
• 🏷️ Job badges — collects listing badges (e.g. tags shown on the card) as an array.
• ⚡ Fast clean HTTP — no browser, no login; works without a proxy and stays cheap.
• 📄 Page depth control — set maxPagesPerSearch (~25 jobs each) and maxItems to balance cost and coverage.
