## Pricing

Pay per usage

This Actor is paid per platform usage. The Actor is free to use, and you only pay for the Apify platform usage, which gets cheaper the higher subscription plan you have.

## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are web data automations that power AI and operations. They run on the Apify platform to scrape websites, process data, connect APIs, and automate workflows.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.
Actors are written with capital "A".

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.
The best way to integrate Actors is as follows.

- **AI agents and MCP clients** — the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md) at `https://mcp.apify.com` (remote, streamable HTTP, OAuth on first use).
- **Agentic workflows and local Actor development** — [Agent Skills](https://apify.com/.well-known/agent-skills/index.json) with the [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): `npm install -g apify-cli`, then `apify login`.
- **JavaScript/TypeScript projects** — the official [JS/TS client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md): `npm install apify-client`.
- **Python projects** — the official [Python client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md): `pip install apify-client`.
- **Any other language** — the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

# README

## Security Hiring Signals

Turn public Greenhouse, Lever, and Ashby boards into a cybersecurity hiring feed. The Actor identifies security engineering, AppSec, cloud security, detection, incident response, threat intelligence, and related roles, with optional extra keyword filters.

Free Apify plans receive a successful sample of up to **10 signals** per run. Paid plans receive the full requested result set. Enable delta mode to receive only newly opened or materially changed jobs after the first run.

Provide company boards as `{ "ats": "greenhouse|lever|ashby", "slug": "...", "name": "..." }`. Every output record includes the normalized role, company, location, ATS URL, and change status.

# Actor input Schema

## `companies` (type: `array`):

Greenhouse, Lever, or Ashby boards to monitor. Each entry needs ats, slug, and optional name.

## `keywords` (type: `array`):

Require one of these terms in addition to the built-in security-role classifier.

## `maxResults` (type: `integer`):

Free Apify plans receive up to 10 records. Paid plans receive the full requested result set.

## `deltaMode` (type: `boolean`):

Suppress roles unchanged since the previous run.

## Actor input object example

```json
{
  "companies": [
    {
      "ats": "greenhouse",
      "slug": "stripe",
      "name": "Stripe"
    }
  ],
  "maxResults": 100,
  "deltaMode": true
}
```

# API

You can run this Actor programmatically using our API. Below are code examples in JavaScript, Python, and CLI, as well as the OpenAPI specification and MCP server setup.

## JavaScript example

```javascript
import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

// Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token
// Replace the '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' with your token
const client = new ApifyClient({
    token: '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>',
});

// Prepare Actor input
const input = {
    "companies": [
        {
            "ats": "greenhouse",
            "slug": "stripe",
            "name": "Stripe"
        }
    ]
};

// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
const run = await client.actor("shipsatnight/security-hiring-signals").call(input);

// Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any)
console.log('Results from dataset');
console.log(`💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`);
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
items.forEach((item) => {
    console.dir(item);
});

## Python example

```python
from apify_client import ApifyClient

# Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token
# Replace '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' with your token.
client = ApifyClient("<YOUR_API_TOKEN>")

# Prepare the Actor input
run_input = { "companies": [{
            "ats": "greenhouse",
            "slug": "stripe",
            "name": "Stripe",
        }] }

# Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
run = client.actor("shipsatnight/security-hiring-signals").call(run_input=run_input)

# Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if there are any)
print(f"💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/{run.default_dataset_id}")
for item in client.dataset(run.default_dataset_id).iterate_items():
    print(item)

## CLI example

```bash
echo '{
  "companies": [
    {
      "ats": "greenhouse",
      "slug": "stripe",
      "name": "Stripe"
    }
  ]
}' |
apify call shipsatnight/security-hiring-signals --silent --output-dataset

```

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "apify": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch-actor-details,shipsatnight/security-hiring-signals"
        }
    }
}

```

The hosted server signs you in with OAuth on first connect, so no API token belongs in this config. Clients without OAuth support can send an `Authorization: Bearer <APIFY_API_TOKEN>` header instead, using a token from API & Integrations in Apify Console (https://console.apify.com/settings/integrations).
