Remote Jobs Scraper — RemoteOK, We Work Remotely & Remotive

Search six of the biggest remote-job boards in one run. One query returns deduplicated remote roles from Remotive, RemoteOK, Arbeitnow, Himalayas, Jobicy and WeWorkRemotely, normalized into a single clean shape.

Every source here is an official, public feed — the same JSON and RSS these boards publish for anyone to consume. No login, no rendered-HTML scraping, no proxies. That keeps runs fast and cheap.

Why aggregate

The same remote role gets posted to several boards under slightly different formatting. Scraping each board separately means paying for the overlap and cleaning it up yourself. This Actor merges those duplicates into one record that lists every board the job appears on — so you can apply through whichever has the fewest applicants.

Sources

Board	Feed	Strong for
Remotive	Official JSON API	Curated remote roles, categorized
RemoteOK	Official JSON API	Tech and startup roles, tags
Arbeitnow	Official JSON API	European and visa-friendly roles
Himalayas	Official JSON API	Salary and seniority metadata
Jobicy	Official JSON API	Industry and level tagging
WeWorkRemotely	Public RSS	Long-running, high-signal board

What you get for each job

• Job title, company and location
• Which boards it was found on, with a direct apply link to each
• Category, employment type and seniority where the board provides them
• Salary, normalized across boards that publish it
• Function inferred from the title (Engineering, Sales, Design, …)
• Tags and a description snippet
• Posted date, normalized to one format

Use it with Claude or ChatGPT

Every Apify Actor is exposed over MCP, so you can wire this into Claude Desktop, Claude Code or any MCP client and ask: "find me remote Python jobs paying over $100k." It also has a REST API and works with LangChain, n8n, Make and Zapier.

Tips

• Run it on a schedule and diff the datasets to catch new remote roles the day they post — before the applicant count climbs.
• sources on each record tells you where a job is cross-posted; apply through the board with the least competition.
• Combine keywords and locationFilter to build a tight, single-topic feed.

Be a good citizen

These feeds are public because the boards want their jobs discovered and syndicated. Cache your results, run on a sensible schedule, and don't poll every minute. Play nicely and these stay open.

Frequently asked questions

How do I scrape remote jobs from multiple boards at once? Enter your keywords and the Actor searches several remote-job boards (Remotive, RemoteOK, Himalayas and more) in one run, returning deduplicated listings.

Do I need a login or API key? No. It reads public job feeds — no login, no key.

How does deduplication work? The same role posted on several boards is merged into one record listing where it appears.

What fields do I get? Title, company, location/region, tags, posted date and a link to each posting.

What format is the output? A dataset you can export to JSON, CSV or Excel, or query via the API.
