How our data is collected

Climate Job Radar tracks 170 climate-tech companies and their live openings across the US and Western Europe. Everything on the site is sourced from public data and refreshed on a fixed schedule — this page explains exactly how.

Where the jobs come from

We read six public applicant tracking system (ATS) job boards — Greenhouse, Lever, Ashby and Workable. These are the same public pages a job seeker would see; we only ever fetch public endpoints and never access anything behind a login. Every role on the site links straight back to its original posting, which is the canonical place to apply.

We do not crawl LinkedIn, Indeed, Glassdoor or other aggregators, and we do not create accounts or scrape gated content. Requests are rate-limited to a maximum of two per second per domain, and our crawler identifies itself with a contact address so site owners can reach us.

How often it refreshes

Job listings are re-fetched daily, so the open-role counts you see are at most a day old — each page shows its own “last refreshed” date. Funding events are pulled from public RSS feeds every few hours, and technology-stack detection runs monthly. The site itself is rebuilt whenever the underlying data changes.

How we classify roles and companies

Each job title is sorted into a role category (engineering, sales, operations and so on) using a deterministic classifier, and companies carry a climate-tech vertical. These derived fields power the by-role and by-city views. Where a value is unknown we leave it blank rather than guessing.

Our no-fabrication policy

Every number on the site — open roles, funding amounts, hiring locations — traces back to a measured source. We never invent statistics, reviews, or author personas, and when a data point is missing we omit it instead of estimating. If you spot an error or want a personal name removed, contact us and we will correct or remove it.
