RemoteOK Job Scraper – Extract Remote Jobs as JSON, CSV, or Excel

RemoteOK Job Scraper pulls live remote job listings straight from RemoteOK's public job board and turns them into clean, structured data — job title, company, tags, salary range, location, and apply link — ready to export as JSON, CSV, or Excel, or push into Google Sheets, Airtable, or your own database via API.

No login required. No proxies used. No browser automation — just a fast, reliable call to RemoteOK's own job feed, filtered the way you need it.

What does this Actor do?

• Fetches the current list of remote job postings from RemoteOK
• Filters by tag (e.g. javascript, design, marketing, sales) and/or a keyword search across title, company, and description
• Caps results with a configurable maxItems limit
• Outputs one clean record per job: position, company, tags, location, salary range, description, and both the listing URL and apply URL

Who this is for

• Job boards & aggregators pulling in fresh remote listings without building their own scraper
• Recruiters & sourcers building keyword-filtered candidate outreach lists
• Job seekers & indie devs building a personal alert bot ("notify me when a new python + remote job appears")
• Market researchers tracking hiring trends by tag, company, or salary band over time

FAQ

Does this Actor use proxies? No. It calls RemoteOK's own public job feed directly, so there's nothing to route through a proxy and no added proxy cost.

Do I need a RemoteOK account or API key? No login or API key is required — the feed is public.

How fresh is the data? As fresh as RemoteOK's own listings page — every run fetches the current feed at run time.

Can I filter by multiple tags at once? Yes — pass an array of tags and the Actor keeps any job matching at least one of them.

Can I schedule this to run automatically? Yes — use Apify's built-in Scheduler to run it daily/hourly and feed a job alert bot, spreadsheet, or dashboard.
