4 Sections

Jobs (main search)

Thousands of software roles from 130+ company boards. Filters: keyword, company, location, remote/hybrid/onsite, level, job type, salary, degree, experience, languages, skills, posted date, visa sponsorship, CV match, sort order.

Local Jobs

Zero-experience local work near you — cleaning, retail, warehouse, hospitality, care, customer service, driving, reception, security. Type your city (Whitechapel, Manchester, Stuttgart, Berlin) and the page defaults to no-experience non-tech roles; flip the What kind of work dropdown to switch to tech / software or "any kind". Best UK and Germany coverage; Arbeitsagentur (German Federal Employment Agency) is free and no API key needed.

Freelance & Contract

Contract, freelance, and temporary software roles. Filter by keyword, work mode, and salary. Sorted by most recently posted.

Bug Bounty

870+ active bug bounty programs from HackerOne, Bugcrowd, Intigriti, and YesWeHack. Search by company or domain. Filter by platform, by Pays cash vs Cash or swag, and sort by highest max payout, highest min payout, or most responsive (HackerOne response-efficiency %). Reward ranges come straight from the platform — never estimated.

How it works

Companies use applicant-tracking systems (Greenhouse, Lever, Ashby, etc.) with public APIs. jobhunt reads from those APIs, stores everything locally, and gives you a search UI with filters and a CV matcher.

Does not scrape LinkedIn or Indeed.

Privacy

Everything runs on your machine. No telemetry, analytics, or update pings. The UI only listens on 127.0.0.1 (your machine, not your network).

OS	Data stored at
