Most company job boards expose public JSON APIs, bypassing LinkedIn and Indeed
Many companies post jobs directly to Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) like Greenhouse, Lever, and Ashby, which expose public JSON endpoints requiring no login or API key. Developers can query these endpoints with a simple HTTP GET request using a company's slug, retrieving cleaner and fresher data than aggregators like LinkedIn or Indeed. Popular ATS platforms including Recruitee, Breezy HR, SmartRecruiters, BambooHR, and Personio offer similar public endpoints, covering a large portion of tech companies. Workday is a notable exception, requiring a POST request and a full board URL that cannot be guessed from a company name alone. For those who prefer a ready-made solution, a multi-ATS tool covering nine platforms has been published that auto-detects the ATS from a company name and returns normalized job listings.
