24 alternatives to DevSpace IT job map

A couple of years ago, after seeing more and more posts about how long job searches had become, I asked myself: what can I do now, while I still have a job, to make my future job search easier? That question led me to start maintaining a list of product companies using Go in production and actively hiring engineers. Over time, I expanded it with additional lists for Rust, Scala, Elixir, and Clojure. All lists are updated weekly. Each company profile includes links to Careers, GitHub, Glassdoor, Levels.fyi, and a LinkedIn search for current and former employees. I'd love to hear your thoughts…

Below are 24 products that do a similar job, ranked by how close each is in meaning and then by launch-day votes. DevSpace IT job map launched in 2019; newer entries below may have overtaken it.

    There are existing HN job aggregators, but I thought we could take it a step further. Inspired by an insightful comment on a previous thread (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=36163021), I built a tool that aggregates job postings and intelligently categorizes them based on user-specific preferences: * Country and remote work preferences * Employer type (e.g., startup, corporation, government) * Industry * Technologies used * Role type (developer, architect, product owner, etc.) * Salary range (where available) One of the superpowers of LLMs is reformatting information from…

    I built a live interactive map that shows where top AI companies hire around the world. I collected this data for a hackathon project. Many ATS providers have a public API that you can hit with the slug of the companies to get open jobs. The hardest part was finding the companies. I tried Firecrawl but it returned around 200 companies per provider which wasn’t enough for me. Then, I tried SERPAPI but it was expensive. I ended up using SearXNG to discover companies by ATS type and fetch their job postings. This produced a large dataset of 200k+ jobs (I only use a subset as it would have taken…

    I started JobBoardSearch about four years ago as a simple directory of niche job boards (A static HTML file with a dozen job boards) One particular think I'm proud of: I didn't scrape these niche job boards and add them to a dabatabase. The 800+ job boards currently listed were submitted organically by their ownres. Lots of their job boards provide a job feed (API, XML or RSS), I fetch those feeds and use the data in serveral different ways. Each job board has its own page in JBS, where I show jobs from that board. I call this the "meta" part of the site. The same feed powers a few other…

    (not sure why my previous post didn't appear on Show HN even though I included it in the title, mods please remove if not allowed) Ever applied for a job and never heard back? Many companies just go silent instead of sending rejection emails, leaving you guessing whether to keep waiting or move on. I faced this frustration during my own internship search, especially when there was no real point of contact (automated replies don't count, lol). So, I built didtheyghost.me, a simple open-source tool that crowdsources job application responses. This isn't a job scraper or another job board. It's…

    Hey everyone, My wife graduated in 2022 and she was fortunate enough to land an internship at a small startup which then offered her a permanent position. But ever since then she has been trying to find another job as a frontend dev since the current one doesn't offer any growth opportunities. She started looking in 2023 right when the job market started tanking. She's been at it for months with no success as there are little to no junior roles available and she spent most of her day refreshing linkedin to check for new opportunities. At the beginning of this year I had this idea that I…
