"Four Remote Job Boards Have Free Public APIs. Here Is One Schema for All of Them"

Short summary

Four remote job boards publish free public APIs with incompatible schemas and attribution requirements. This post maps all four sources (RemoteOK, Remotive, WeWorkRemotely, Himalayas), reveals normalization traps (free-text vs. numeric salary, epoch vs. ISO dates), and delivers a battle-tested JSON schema. Applications include job alert pipelines and hiring signal detection for sales.

  • •Four job boards offer free, unauthenticated APIs with different data formats and attribution terms
  • •Common normalization problems: salary formats, date types (epoch/ISO/RFC822), company name extraction from RSS
  • •Unified schema solves deduplication and multi-source aggregation; use cases span job alerts and sales intelligence
