Remote Jobs Aggregator — 6 Boards in One Dataset

Aggregate six remote-job boards in a single run — RemoteOK (full 1,000+ board), WeWorkRemotely, Remotive, Himalayas, Jobicy, and Arbeitnow — into one normalized, cross-board-deduplicated dataset: 2,000–3,000 unique live remote jobs with salary ranges, who-may-apply countries, full descriptions, and opt-in employer contact emails. Built for recruiters, job boards, researchers, and lead-gen teams who are tired of running five scrapers and merging CSVs by hand.

How it works

1. Run with defaults — all six boards are fetched in parallel (pick any subset with the sources input).
2. Every job is normalized into one 30+ field schema; the same job posted on several boards collapses into one row (richest copy wins, the rest listed in alsoFoundOn, missing fields backfilled across boards).
3. Filters (keyword, tags, countries, salary, job type, posting age) run before rows count toward maxItems — you never pay for filtered-out rows.
4. Results are balanced round-robin across boards, freshest first, and exported as JSON, CSV, or Excel.

💰 $1.99 per 1,000 unique jobs. Six boards for roughly the price competitors charge for one.

✨ Why use this aggregator?

• RemoteOK at full depth. Most aggregators wrap RemoteOK's public API, which stops at the 100 newest jobs. This actor walks RemoteOK's complete live board — 1,000+ jobs — via the same feed its own infinite scroll uses.
• Real cross-board dedupe. Company+title matching collapses reposts into one row and records where else it appeared (alsoFoundOn) — the only honest way to count "unique live remote jobs".
• One schema, six boards. Salary ranges parsed to {min, max, currency}, dates to ISO, employment types unified to FULL_TIME/CONTRACT/…, geo eligibility as one applicantCountries[] array — no per-board special-casing in your code.
• Fault-tolerant by design. Boards are fetched independently; one being down is logged and skipped, never a failed run.
• Employer contact emails (opt-in). enrichEmails adds contactEmail + contactWebsite discovered from each hiring company's website — turning the merged feed into a lead list.
• Balanced output. Round-robin across boards stops any single high-volume source from drowning the rest of your dataset.

Supported boards

Board	Coverage per run	Notes
RemoteOK	~1,000+ (full live board)	10× past its public API's 100-job cap; full descriptions recovered from the page
WeWorkRemotely	~100 newest	Full ~8KB descriptions, region + skills tags
Himalayas	paginated walk	Salary, seniority, location + timezone restrictions, real apply links
Remotive	~20 newest	Their public API's hard cap — verified
Jobicy	~50 newest	Industry, level, salary fields
Arbeitnow	remote rows only	European lean; non-remote rows are dropped

Pick any subset with the sources input — e.g. ["remoteok", "weworkremotely"] for just the two big independent boards.

• Recruiting & sourcing — every live listing for a skill or geography across the remote market, with employer emails on tap.
• Market research — salary distributions, tag frequency, and geo-eligibility trends across boards, not just one site's bias.
• Lead generation — each job is a company spending money on hiring right now; contactEmail makes them reachable.
• Job alerts — schedule daily with timeFilter: "24h" for a cross-board feed of only fresh postings.

❓ FAQ

How many jobs will I get? With all six boards and no filters, typically 2,000–3,000 unique jobs after dedupe. maxItems caps the run; filtered-out rows never count toward it.

How does deduplication work? Case-insensitive company+title matching across boards. The copy from the richest source is kept (RemoteOK → WeWorkRemotely → Himalayas → Remotive → Jobicy → Arbeitnow), every other appearance is recorded in alsoFoundOn, and missing fields (salary, website, longer description) are backfilled from the duplicates. Set dedupe: false to keep every board's copy.

Why does RemoteOK contribute so many more jobs than Remotive? Board reality: this actor walks RemoteOK's full live board (1,000+), while Remotive's public API is hard-capped at its ~20 newest jobs (verified — the limit and category parameters don't lift it). Each board contributes what it actually exposes.

Is one board being down a failed run? No — every board is fetched independently. A failing board is logged in the run stats and the rest continue.

Why round-robin instead of newest-first? Some boards refresh timestamps aggressively; a global newest-first cap would fill your entire dataset from one source. Round-robin keeps every selected board represented, freshest first within each.

Is enrichEmails guaranteed to find an email? No — it is best-effort discovery from the employer's website (seeded by companyWebsite when a board exposes it, otherwise name-based lookup with a business-precision guard). Billed per email found, never for misses.

Can I schedule it? Yes — any Apify schedule. For a daily cross-board digest, set timeFilter: "24h" and schedule every morning.

🤖 For AI Agents & LLM Apps

• Stable unified schema — every field always present (null/[] when unavailable), identical across all six boards, so tool-calling code never branches per source.
• MCP-ready — callable through Apify's MCP server; a minimal call is { "searchKeyword": "python", "maxItems": 20 }.
• Token-friendly modes — cleanHtml: true for plain-text descriptions, includeDescription: false for compact metadata-only rows.
• Deterministic — exact client-side filtering and stable dedupe rules; same inputs, same selection logic.
• Cheap in loops — filtered queries bill only matching rows, so agents can iterate freely.
