Lever Postings API — Tech Jobs, Salary & ATS Data Scraper

Scrape jobs, structured salary data, workplace type and full content blocks from any company powered by Lever — Netflix, Spotify, Shopify, Mixpanel, Lyra Health, Reddit and thousands more Lever-hosted career pages. This unofficial Lever Postings API Actor turns Lever's raw public endpoints into clean, normalized, downstream-ready records you can export to JSON, CSV or Excel.

Pure HTTP — no authentication, no API key, no headless browser. Sub-second responses per board, support for both global (api.lever.co) and EU (api.eu.lever.co) Lever instances, and server-side filtering forwarded straight to Lever's native API for the fastest possible results. If you want to scrape Lever jobs or build a Lever ATS data pipeline, this is the Actor.

✨ What this Actor does / Key features

• Unofficial Lever Postings API — scrape every published job from any Lever site with a single input; no credentials required.
• Real structured salary data — Lever exposes salaryRange as {currency, interval, min, max}, not buried in HTML. Filter, sort and benchmark compensation directly.
• Workplace type — explicit remote, hybrid, on-site or unspecified per posting, perfect for remote-job pipelines.
• Server-side filtering — team, department, location, commitment and level are forwarded to Lever's native API so only matching postings are downloaded.
• Client-side filtering — title keywords, workplace types, ISO country codes and minimum disclosed salary, applied after fetch for criteria Lever can't filter on.
• Two modes — jobs (list every posting from one or more sites) and jobDetail (refresh specific postings by UUID).
• Global + EU instances — a simple toggle swaps the base URL for European employers.
• Concurrent multi-site batching — fetch up to 20 Lever boards in parallel.
• Structured content blocks — Lever's lists[] (Qualifications, Responsibilities, etc.) are preserved as separate objects, plus HTML and LLM-ready plaintext (*Plain) variants of every content field.
• Stable & low-maintenance — built on Lever's public API, not fragile HTML parsing.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a Lever API key or login? No. The Postings API this Actor uses is fully public and works without any credentials. (Lever's separate authenticated Data API is out of scope here.)

Is it legal / are confidential postings exposed? The Actor only reads postings in the published state — exactly what a candidate sees on the company's public Lever career page. Internal, confidential, draft and closed postings are never exposed. You are responsible for complying with Lever's terms and applicable law.

How much data can I get and how fast? Lever returns all published postings for a board by default. A small board responds in under a second; 10 sites in parallel typically finish in 2–5 seconds. Lever's GET endpoints have no documented rate limit and are generous in practice; the Actor uses backoff on the rare 429.

Can I filter by salary, country or workplace type? Yes — but client-side. Lever's server only filters on team, department, location, commitment and level. Salary, country, workplace type and title-keyword filters are applied by the Actor after fetching.

A site returns 404 — what's wrong? Either the site name is misspelled (it's case-sensitive) or the company is on the other instance. Toggle instance to eu — European employers are often on api.eu.lever.co.

How do I find a company's Lever site name? Open their careers page. If the URL is https://jobs.lever.co/SITENAME (or https://jobs.eu.lever.co/SITENAME), SITENAME is your input.

What output formats are supported and can I schedule it? Results land in an Apify dataset, exportable to JSON, CSV, Excel, XML or HTML, or via the Apify API. You can schedule the Actor to run on any interval for a continuously fresh jobs feed.

⏰ Scheduling & integration

Schedule this Actor on Apify to run hourly or daily for an always-fresh Lever jobs feed. Export results to JSON, CSV or Excel, pull them through the Apify API, or wire the dataset into Google Sheets, a data warehouse or webhooks for automated recruitment and market-intelligence pipelines.
