Remote Jobs Aggregator

Get remote job listings from five job boards in one clean dataset: Remotive, Remote OK, Himalayas, Jobicy and Arbeitnow. One run, one schema — title, company, location, employment type, salary, tags, publication date, description and the canonical link to the original posting. Duplicates posted on several boards are merged, with links to every copy.

The Actor reads only the official public JSON APIs the boards publish for developers. No HTML scraping, no browser, no proxies, no logins — so it does not break when a site changes its layout, and it respects each board's attribution rules by design.

What you can do with it

• Job alerts — run it every morning with postedAfter: "24 hours" and your keywords, then send new matches to Slack, email or a Google Sheet with Apify integrations.
• Job-board or newsletter feed — fill a niche job site ("remote Python jobs in Europe") with fresh, deduplicated listings that link back to the source.
• Market research — track how many remote roles per stack, seniority or region appear each week; salary ranges where boards publish them.
• Recruiting and lead generation — see which companies are hiring remotely right now for a given skill.
• AI agents — let an agent query the job market through the Apify MCP server (see below).

Sources

Board	Coverage	Notes
Remotive	Tech, marketing, design, support	Listings delayed 24 h by the board itself
Remote OK	Latest ~100 remote jobs, tags, USD salaries
Himalayas	Largest feed (100 000+ listings), salaries, seniority, location and timezone restrictions	Paginated by date until postedAfter
Jobicy	Worldwide, industries, levels, salaries	Up to 200 newest per run
Arbeitnow	Europe-focused, hourly updates	Only jobs marked remote are kept

All boards allow this kind of re-use provided the original job URL and the source are kept. Every item therefore contains url, source, sourceName and an attribution line. Please keep them when you display the data.

Input

Field	Type	Default	Description
keywords	array	[]	Keep jobs whose title, company, category, tags (and description, see below) contain any of these words. Empty = everything.
excludeKeywords	array	[]	Drop jobs whose title, company, category or tags contain any of these.
searchDescription	boolean	true	Also match keywords in the full description. Turn off for strict title/tag matching.
sources	array	all five	Any of remotive, remoteok, himalayas, jobicy, arbeitnow.
postedAfter	string	7 days	A date (2026-09-01), today, yesterday or a period (24 hours, 2 weeks).
location	string	—	Keep only jobs whose location text contains this (USA, Europe, Worldwide, Germany).
jobTypes	array	[]	full_time, part_time, contract, freelance, internship, temporary, other.
maxItems	integer	500	Stop after this many jobs (after filtering and merging).
includeDescription	boolean	true	Full description as text and HTML; off = 300-character excerpt.
dedupe	boolean	true	Merge the same job found on several boards.

Example — remote React or Vue jobs for Europe from the last day, without senior roles:

{
  "keywords": ["react", "vue"],
  "excludeKeywords": ["senior", "lead"],
  "location": "Europe",
  "postedAfter": "24 hours",
  "maxItems": 200
}

Output

One dataset item per job:

{
  "id": "himalayas:senior-full-stack-python-fastapi-react-engineer",
  "title": "Senior Full Stack Python/FastAPI/React Engineer",
  "company": "Anovium",
  "url": "https://himalayas.app/companies/anovium/jobs/senior-full-stack-python-fastapi-react-engineer",
  "applyUrl": "https://himalayas.app/companies/anovium/jobs/senior-full-stack-python-fastapi-react-engineer/apply",
  "source": "himalayas",
  "sourceName": "Himalayas",
  "sourceSite": "https://himalayas.app",
  "attribution": "Originally posted on Himalayas: https://himalayas.app/companies/anovium/jobs/…",
  "location": "Colombia",
  "remote": true,
  "jobType": "full_time",
  "seniority": "Senior",
  "category": "Engineering",
  "tags": ["Full Stack Engineer"],
  "salaryMin": 60000,
  "salaryMax": 90000,
  "salaryCurrency": "USD",
  "salaryPeriod": "year",
  "salaryText": null,
  "companyLogo": "https://…/logo.png",
  "publishedAt": "2026-09-10T12:28:04Z",
  "expiresAt": "2026-10-10T12:28:04Z",
  "description": "About Anovium …",
  "descriptionHtml": "<p>About Anovium …</p>",
  "alsoOn": [{ "source": "remoteok", "url": "https://remoteok.com/remote-jobs/…" }],
  "scrapedAt": "2026-09-10T14:02:11Z"
}

jobType is normalized across boards; salaryText keeps free-text ranges (e.g. $90k–$120k) when a board publishes salary as text. The OUTPUT record of the key-value store holds a run summary: jobs per board, boards that failed (the run still succeeds if at least one board answers), and the filters used.

Pricing

Pay per event: a small fee per Actor start plus a fee per job returned. You pay only for jobs that pass your filters after deduplication — the filtering and merging themselves are free. A daily alert run with 20–50 new matches typically costs a few cents; the current prices are shown in the Pricing tab.

Limits and good practice

• The boards ask developers not to poll them constantly. The Actor makes one request per board per run (Himalayas and Arbeitnow paginate as far as postedAfter requires). Schedules every few hours are fine; every minute is not.
• Boards describe locations in their own words (Worldwide, USA only, EMEA, Remote job). The location filter is a substring match; use short terms.
• Remotive delays its public feed by 24 hours on purpose; other boards publish in near real time.
• Keywords are matched as substrings, case-insensitive: go also matches Django. Use golang or go with spaces if you need precision.

Use with AI agents (MCP)

Add this Actor to the Apify MCP server and an agent (Claude, Cursor, any MCP client) can ask for "remote data-engineer jobs posted this week that mention dbt" and receive structured rows with links. Typical tool input:

{ "keywords": ["data engineer", "dbt"], "postedAfter": "7 days", "maxItems": 50, "includeDescription": false }

FAQ

Why do results differ from the boards' websites? Boards show more jobs on their sites than in their public APIs (e.g. Remote OK exposes the latest ~100, Jobicy up to 200 per query). Combine several boards and run regularly to build a complete picture.

Can I get non-remote jobs too? No — this Actor is remote-only by design (Arbeitnow's on-site listings are filtered out).

Is this affiliated with the boards? No. Data is provided by the boards through their public APIs and remains theirs; keep the links and source names when you republish it.

Something is missing or a board changed its API? Open an issue on the Actor's Issues tab — fixes usually ship within a day.
