Remoteok Jobs Scraper

🚀 RemoteOK Jobs Scraper: Remote Job Listings, Salaries and Tags

Export RemoteOK jobs as clean JSON, CSV or Excel. The RemoteOK Jobs Scraper collects the remote job listings for any RemoteOK tag ("engineer", "design", "marketing"…) with title, company, salary range, location, tags, full description and posting dates. Use it to research remote software engineer jobs, track the remote job market, or as a simple alternative to a RemoteOK API.

🎯 Use Cases

• Remote job search at scale: pull every remote job for a tag into a spreadsheet and filter it your way instead of scrolling the board.
• Remote software engineer jobs feed: schedule a daily run for "engineer", "developer" or "backend" and get the new remote developer jobs as they appear.
• Remote job market research: count listings per tag, company and employment type to see which remote roles are in demand.
• Salary benchmarking: compare the salary ranges employers publish for remote engineering, design and marketing jobs.
• Job board and newsletter content: turn RemoteOK listings into a remote jobs feed for your own site, Slack channel or newsletter.
• Recruiting and lead generation: find companies that are hiring remotely right now, with their RemoteOK company page and logo.

✨ Features

• Full job data: title, company, company page, logo, locations, tags, description, employment type, posting date and expiry date.
• Salary as numbers: minimum, maximum, currency and pay period, ready to sort and chart.
• Any RemoteOK tag: the same tags you use on the site, such as engineer, design, marketing, python, devops.
• Automatic pagination: up to 50 jobs per page, as many pages as you ask for, or all of them.
• Direct links: the job page and the apply link for every listing.
• Fair billing: you pay per saved job, and the run stops at your maximum charge.

🛠️ How It Works

1. Enter a tag, for example engineer, design or marketing.
2. Set Max pages: each page has up to 50 jobs; 0 scrapes every page for the tag.
3. Run the scraper and download the results, or pull them through the API.

⚙️ Input

Field	What it does
Tags	The RemoteOK tag or keyword to filter jobs by. Default engineer.
Max pages	How many pages to scrape. Each page has up to 50 jobs. 0 = all pages. Default 3.

{
    "tags": "engineer",
    "maxPages": 3
}

A broad tag such as engineer has about 1,000 live jobs, so "maxPages": 0 returns the whole list in a few seconds.

💰 Pricing

Pay only for the jobs you get. No monthly rental.

Event	Price	What you get
Job	$0.001 per job ($1.00 per 1,000)	One job listing with all fields below
Actor start	$0.00005 per run	Charged once when the run starts.

Examples: one page of 50 jobs = $0.05 · the default 3 pages (150 jobs) = $0.15 · all ~1,000 engineer jobs = about $1.00.

Set a maximum charge on the run and the scraper saves only as many jobs as that budget covers.

    "location": "Redwood City",
    "locations": ["Redwood City"],
    "tags": ["Developer", "SaaS", "DevOps", "Cloud", "API", "Golang", "Backend", "…"],
    "salaryMin": 150000,
    "salaryMax": 185000,
    "salaryCurrency": "USD",
    "salaryPeriod": "YEAR",
    "employmentType": "FULL_TIME",
    "datePosted": "2026-08-16T00:00:10+00:00",
    "validThrough": "2026-11-14T00:00:10+00:00",
    "epoch": 1786838410,
    "scrapedAt": "2026-10-21T10:17:12.139Z"
}

epoch is the posting time as a Unix timestamp, handy for sorting and for picking out jobs that are new since your last run. validThrough is when the listing expires. description is the employer's full text and is often HTML, so strip tags if you need plain text. applyUrl is RemoteOK's apply link for the job. locations lists every region or country the job is open to (for example ["Germany", "Europe"]), and location joins them into one text value.

🔁 Schedule and Integrate

For a remote jobs feed, run it once or twice a day with the same tag and keep the jobs whose id you haven't seen before. Set it up in Apify Schedules. Send the results to Google Sheets, Zapier, Make, n8n or a webhook with Apify integrations, so new remote job listings land in your sheet, Slack channel or job board automatically.

🤖 Use with AI Agents (MCP)

This Actor works as a tool in Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor and other MCP clients through the Apify MCP server (https://mcp.apify.com). An agent can call it with:

{ "tags": "python", "maxPages": 1 }

❓ FAQ

Does RemoteOK have an official API? RemoteOK offers a public JSON feed of its latest jobs, with attribution and usage terms set by the site. This Actor is a practical alternative when you need jobs filtered by tag, more than the latest batch, structured salary fields and dates, and the result in a dataset you can schedule, export or connect to other tools, with no key or code to maintain.

Do I need a RemoteOK account? No. The Actor reads the public job listings anyone can see.

Which tags can I use? Any tag RemoteOK uses in its URLs and filters, such as engineer, developer, design, marketing, sales, devops, python or javascript. A tag with no live jobs returns 0 results and the run says so in its status.

Why is the salary the same on many jobs? The salary comes from the structured data on each listing. When an employer doesn't publish a salary, the site fills in a default range (often 80,000–160,000 USD per year), so treat repeated ranges as estimates rather than offers.

Why is a field empty? Some listings have no logo, no company page, no salary or no location on the card. Those fields are null (or locations is an empty list) then.

How many remote jobs can I get? Everything RemoteOK lists for the tag at the moment of the run. Broad tags like engineer have about 1,000 jobs; narrow tags have a few dozen.
