Key Engineering Takeaways (TL;DR)

  • ✓Every job record includes pre-extracted skills[], seniority, work_arrangement (remote/hybrid/onsite), visa_sponsorship, and annualized USD salary bounds — ready for vector embedding or structured LLM tool calls.
  • ✓Direct ATS apply URLs (boards.greenhouse.io, jobs.lever.co, jobs.ashbyhq.com, myworkdayjobs.com) let AI agents deep-link candidates straight to the employer's application form.
  • ✓Polling GET /v1/feeds/closed ensures your AI agent never recommends expired or filled roles.
  • ✓Zero-dependency MCP server (@jobpostingsapi/mcp-server) connects Claude, Cursor, and LangChain agents in 30 seconds.

1. Purpose-Built Schema for RAG Embeddings & Candidate Matching

Instead of spending LLM tokens parsing messy HTML scrapes, JobPostings API delivers clean, deterministic fields alongside full plain-text and HTML descriptions.

  • Normalized Annual USD Compensation: Every salary range (hourly, monthly, or annual across USD, EUR, GBP, CAD, AUD) is normalized into salary.annual_usd_min and salary.annual_usd_max for instant SQL or vector metadata filtering.
  • Canonical Technical & Functional Skills: Over 1,200 canonical skills (python, pytorch, rust, kubernetes, soc2, salesforce, gaap) are pre-tagged in skills[] for high-precision candidate matching.
  • Direct Application Links & Redistribution Safety: All 9.9M+ default search results have redistribution_allowed=true and direct employer apply URLs.

2. Querying Candidate-Matched Jobs with Compensation & Remote Filters

Filter by skills, minimum salary, remote work arrangement, and country in a single sub-300ms API call.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use these job postings to power a public AI job search engine?
Yes. By default, /v1/jobs/search only returns the 9.9M+ verified ATS & corporate career-site postings with redistribution_allowed=true, which are safe for public display and commercial applications.
