How I built Jaabz — a simple job aggregator for visa-sponsored tech roles

Finding real tech jobs that offer visa sponsorship or relocation is hard. Many job posts hide that information in long descriptions or use different phrases, so candidates miss good opportunities. I built Jaabz to make those signals easy to find.

Jaabz collects job listings from multiple public sources, looks for phrases and signals that indicate visa support or relocation help, and shows the results in one place. The site highlights visa-friendly roles, lists relocation perks when available, and offers small tools like salary and relocation estimators to help candidates decide.

At a high level, the system:

  • fetches job posts from a few trusted sources,
  • extracts title, company, location and the full text,
  • flags listings that mention visa sponsorship or relocation,
  • normalizes similar job titles and removes duplicates,
  • and exposes clean, searchable job records to users.

If you’re building something similar, start small: pick 2–3 reliable sources, validate your detection rules manually, and make sure to respect each site’s robots.txt and terms of service. Also add a short “methodology” note on your site so users trust the data.

I’d love to hear feedback — try Jaabz at https://jaabz.com and tell me what you think.
