Remote Jobs Scraper: RemoteOK, Remotive, WeWorkRemotely, Himalayas

Four remote job boards, one clean JSON feed. This actor pulls live listings from RemoteOK, Remotive, WeWorkRemotely, and Himalayas, normalizes them into a single row schema, dedupes across boards, and filters by keyword and freshness. No login, no API key, no browser.

Why people use it

• Job alert feeds. Schedule it hourly with your keywords and pipe new rows into Slack, email, or a database. You see postings across four boards the hour they appear.
• Lead generation. A company hiring remotely is a company spending. Filter by role keywords that signal your buyer (e.g. "devops", "growth") and feed the companies into your outreach list.
• Job board building. Bootstrap or enrich a niche job site with normalized listings that carry salary, tags, and location limits.
• Market research. Track salary ranges, seniority mix, and tag trends for a role across boards over time.

    "sources": ["remoteok", "remotive", "weworkremotely", "himalayas"],
    "maxJobsPerSource": 25,
    "postedWithinDays": 14
}
