Build a focused job board with server-side filtering, not post-processing
The case for niche job boards is real: a focused product serves a specific audience better than a general board, ranks for long-tail keywords, and attracts employers who want to reach that exact audience. The problem is data — pulling a relevant, current, and accurate niche feed without maintaining scrapers. CleanJobData solves that. Combine title, location, remote, seniority, and salary filters in a single query to get a pre-scoped feed for your niche. We index millions of job listings from ATS platforms such as Greenhouse, Lever, Workday and Workable, and from company career sites — tech companies, startups and scale-ups, all in one consistent, structured schema.
Benefits
✓Compose any niche in one query — remote Python roles, senior Berlin engineers, entry-level product jobs in NYC — combine filters server-side without post-processing.
✓Pre-scoped feeds available to test before you build — browse the 25+ regional and vertical feeds at cleanjobdata.com/feeds to validate coverage for your niche.
✓High-signal employer base — jobs come straight from employer career pages and ATS platforms, where tech companies and well-funded startups post. Less noise from IT staffing agencies and low-quality postings.
✓SEO-ready data — structured job schema with all the fields (title, company, location, salary, posted date) needed to generate rich result markup.
✓Launch fast — the Next.js starter template is built for niche boards. Drop in your filter parameters, customize the brand, deploy.
Features
•Multi-filter queries — combine title, location, remote, seniority, salary, employment type, and max_age in one call
•Pre-scoped feeds for 25+ markets and verticals — test coverage before you build
•Seniority normalized into four tokens — entry (EN), mid (MI), senior (SE), executive (EX) — inferred from the job title, see /guides/experience-level-mapping
•Remote flag — verified at the ATS level, not inferred from the word 'remote' in a description
•max_age filter — pull only listings posted in the last 24h, 3 days, 7 days, or 30 days
•created_max_age filter — run daily syncs that pull only listings added since yesterday (created_max_age=1d), instead of re-downloading your whole index. On Starter, new jobs arrive 24 hours after we index them; on Pro, right away

What makes a niche board different from adding filters to a general board?
A niche board is designed around one audience from the start — the URL structure, copy, and SEO all target that audience specifically. Filtering a general board gives you a subset of results; a niche board built on a scoped feed gives you a product people bookmark and return to.
How do I verify coverage for my specific niche before building?
Use the live playground at cleanjobdata.com/playground — no API key needed. Run your target filter combination and see real results. If the volume looks right, you're good to build. /guides/choosing-filters-for-your-use-case covers which filters to fix server-side for a niche board.
Can I build a location-specific niche board (e.g., Austin fintech jobs)?
Yes. Look up the city ID with GET /geo/suggest?q=austin&kinds=city, then filter with `?city_id=<id>&title=fintech`. City-level precision is built in — listings include lat/lng, city ID, and country code, so you're not matching on a free-text location string. See /guides/using-geo-suggest-with-jobs-api for the full pattern.
Are there vertical feeds I can use as a starting point?
Yes — we publish 25+ pre-scoped feeds at cleanjobdata.com/feeds covering cities, countries, and role verticals (Remote React, Senior Engineers, DevOps, Product Manager, and more). Each feed is a live query with a preview you can inspect before integrating.
