How to get an alert when a specific company posts a job

Updated 2026-11-10 · Planners and templates · by CyberMax

Short answer

Go to the company's careers page and open any job: if the link starts with job-boards.greenhouse.io/<name> (or boards.greenhouse.io), the company publishes a public Greenhouse board. Its open roles are at boards-api.greenhouse.io/v1/boards/<name>/jobs. Check that list daily, compare with yesterday's, and keep only new titles that contain your role words and your place (or 'remote').

Find the company's Greenhouse board name from a job link.
Note the roles you want (title words) and places.
Check the board daily and compare with the last check.
Apply the same day a matching role appears.

Copy-paste code

See a company's open roles from a terminal

curl -s https://boards-api.greenhouse.io/v1/boards/<name>/jobs \
  | grep -o '"title":"[^"]*' | sort > today.txt
comm -13 yesterday.txt today.txt   # titles that are new since yesterday

Good to know

Many companies use other job systems; this method works for Greenhouse boards.

Job titles vary: add a few words ('designer, design lead') rather than one exact title.

Questions

Will the company know I'm watching?

No. The board is public; reading it is the same as opening the careers page.

Why not LinkedIn alerts?

They cover every company and often arrive later; a company's own board is where a role appears first.
