JobBeacon is a job board monitor that tracks company career pages every hour. Set keyword and location filters — when a new role matches, you get an email with a direct link to apply.
Job boards don't notify you. Career pages don't have RSS feeds. And "job alerts" from LinkedIn are a firehose of irrelevant noise. We built JobBeacon because we were tired of the same ritual: open 15 tabs, scroll through the same listings, close them all, repeat tomorrow. There had to be a better way. There is.
How job board monitoring works
Three steps. Under a minute.
01Add a company career page
Paste a job board URL — we'll figure out the rest.
02Set keyword and location filters
Keywords like "engineer" or "frontend". Locations like "San Francisco" or "Remote". Choose whether any filter or all of them must match.
03Get email alerts for new job postings
We check the board for new postings. Match found? You get an email with the title, location, and a direct link to apply.

Frequently asked questions
- What is a job board monitor?
- A job board monitor automatically checks company career pages for new job postings and notifies you when something relevant appears. Instead of manually visiting dozens of career sites every day, you set it up once and let it watch for you.
- How does JobBeacon track job postings?
- JobBeacon tracks the career pages of the companies you registered. We check the latest job listings, compare them against your keyword and location filters, and send you an email if there's a match. No scraping, no browser extensions — just reliable, automated monitoring.
- Which career pages can I monitor?
- You can monitor any company that you are interested in. Just paste the company's careers page URL and JobBeacon will detect the platform automatically.
- How is this different from LinkedIn job alerts?
- LinkedIn alerts are broad and noisy — they match on job titles across the entire platform. JobBeacon lets you monitor specific companies with precise keyword and location filters. You only hear about roles that match exactly what you're looking for, at the companies you actually want to work at.
- Is JobBeacon free?
- Yes. The free plan lets you monitor up to 5 companies with keyword and location filters. Pro unlocks unlimited companies, faster polling, and manual refresh on demand.
The next role you want is going to be posted at 2am on a Tuesday.
