Lever Jobs API: how to list every posting from any Lever job board (jobs.lever.co) as JSON

Lever publishes a public postings API for every company that hosts its jobs on jobs.lever.co. No key, no login. This repository documents the endpoint, the response fields, the skip/limit pagination and ships a dependency-free Python example.

The endpoint

GET https://api.lever.co/v0/postings/{site}?mode=json
GET https://api.lever.co/v0/postings/{site}?mode=json&limit=100&skip=100
GET https://api.lever.co/v0/postings/{site}/{posting_id}?mode=json
GET https://api.lever.co/v0/postings/{site}?mode=json&team=Engineering&location=Remote&commitment=Full-time

site is the slug in the board URL: https://jobs.lever.co/spotify → spotify. Companies on the EU data center use https://jobs.eu.lever.co/{site} and https://api.eu.lever.co/v0/postings/{site}.

What you get back

A JSON array (not an object). Each posting:

Pagination and limits

Default page size is 100 (limit max 100); page with skip. Lever also returns the entire board with a large limit on most sites, but relying on skip is the documented way. There is no published rate limit; keep it to a few requests per second and cache.

Python example (stdlib only)

import json, urllib.request

def lever_jobs(site):
    skip = 0
    while True:
        url = f"https://api.lever.co/v0/postings/{site}?mode=json&limit=100&skip={skip}"
        req = urllib.request.Request(url, headers={"User-Agent": "your-app/1.0 (contact@example.com)"})
        with urllib.request.urlopen(req, timeout=30) as r:
            page = json.load(r)
        if not page:
            return
        for p in page:
            c = p.get("categories") or {}
            yield {"id": p["id"], "title": p["text"], "team": c.get("team"), "location": c.get("location"),
                   "commitment": c.get("commitment"), "workplace": p.get("workplaceType"),
                   "url": p["hostedUrl"], "posted_at": p.get("createdAt")}
        skip += len(page)

if __name__ == "__main__":
    rows = list(lever_jobs("spotify")); print(len(rows), "jobs"); print(rows[0])

Finding Lever boards

Search site:jobs.lever.co or site:jobs.eu.lever.co. A careers page that links to jobs.lever.co/<slug>/<uuid> tells you the slug.

Common questions

Why do I get an empty array? The slug is wrong, the company moved ATS, or the board is on the EU host.

Is createdAt the posting date? It is the creation time of the posting record in milliseconds; for most companies that matches the publish date closely.

Hosted version, pay per result

If you would rather not run and maintain this yourself, the same logic runs as a pay-per-result Apify Actor by CleanFeeds: https://apify.com/cleanfeedsapi/lever-jobs-api ($1.50 per 1,000 rows, no subscription, JSON/CSV/Excel export, API, scheduling, n8n/Make/Zapier and MCP integrations). A multi-ATS variant that mixes Greenhouse, Lever, Ashby, Workday, SmartRecruiters and Recruitee boards in one run: https://apify.com/cleanfeedsapi/ats-jobs-feed
