Employer accounts
We’re rolling out our new employer dashboard which lets you create or claim an existing company profile, post new and manage existing jobs, and invite colleagues to manage your Himalayas account.
Create or claim your company profile today and start posting jobs to get in front of the most responsive, remote-read talent looking to get hired right now.
Pricing is simple: Your first 3 jobs are $1 each, after that it’s a flat $29 per post. Jobs are live for 30 days, branded with your company logo, and we’ll contribute 10% of your purchase to removing CO₂ from the atmosphere. There are no recurring or hidden costs and no complicated upsells.
Restrict roles to specific geographies or timezones and let job seekers filter themselves out so you don’t have to.
The employer dashboard gives you access to in-depth insights into how your job posts are performing and lets you edit jobs or update your company profile whenever you like.
Other fixes and improvements
- Added pricing page
- Improved nav bar to show popular job categories and companies with the most active jobs on Himalayas
- Added working permit indicator to search pages, individual jobs, and filtering
- Added email capture to search pages, job pages, and company pages

Sugar, spice, and everything nice
We're back
We're back after two months off. To celebrate, we spent the week fixing a bunch of bugs and cleaning up some design inconsistencies we just weren't happy with.
We want using Himalayas to feel like magic, so we'll continue to sweat the details. The average job board looks like it hasn't been updated in a decade. Our goal is to make our software frictionless, simple, and fast. We've got a long way to go but we're happy with where we're headed.
This work also paves the way for our next big feature: employer accounts. We're excited to share what we've been up to, and we're even more excited to welcome our first employers to the platform.
With employer accounts, you'll be able to sign up, create a new or claim an existing company profile, and manage job posts. If you want a sneak preview, or just want to learn more about posting to Himalayas, please reach out at [email protected]

Sorry! No results found.
Empty states matter
There’s nothing worse than not finding what you’re looking for. That’s why we spent last week designing and building an easy-to-understand empty state for our search. Ideally, you’ll never see this screen but if you do, we want it to be a nice experience. We hope you like it.
Dynamic rendering
We’ve implemented dynamic rendering to help get jobs in front of more eyeballs. It’s still difficult for search engines to process JavaScript, some aren’t able to process it successfully or immediately. This means pages can take longer to rank or not rank at all.
Dynamic rendering means we switch between client-side rendered for you and pre-rendered content for search engines. Whenever we receive a request, we look at the user agent to determine if it’s coming from a search engine or a regular user:
- If the request is coming from a search engine, the response is proxied through a headless browser that pre-renders it.
- If the request is coming from a regular user like you, the response is rendered client-side.
Support for Google Jobs
To make it easier for job seekers to discover jobs posted on Himalayas, we’ve added structure data to all job posts. This means our jobs can appear in Google Search, improving discoverability for job posters.
Other improvements and fixes
- Fixed search to deprioritize companies with no jobs
- To support longer job titles search results now stack vertically on mobile
- Fixed an issue where Chatwoot would not display properly on mobile
- Improved readability of badges in filter panel by increasing font size from 12px —> 14px and padding-left and padding-right from 10px —> 12px
- Fixed issue where dot points in job posts running over two lines were not respecting indentation
- Fixed issue where Sydney timezone was displaying as 10.0 rather than (UTC 10.00): Sydney
