Which Austin data engineer jobs does Indeed think are the best match?
Fifty-three by relevance rather than date, and the order changes.
Staff Data Engineer · Visa · $146,200–$233,700
A second Visa posting for the same title pays $131,600–$210,300, so the same employer is running two bands at once.
Alongside the jobs, Indeed returns what people also searched for: big data engineer, data scientist, data analyst.

FAQ
Before you wire it in
Do I need an Indeed account or employer access?
No. The only credential is your HasData key. Both tools read the public Indeed pages a signed-out visitor sees, so there is no employer programme to apply for.
Why does a search result not show the full description?
Because Indeed does not put it on the search card. The card carries the title, company, location, salary and posted date. The description, requirements, benefits and apply link come from the job tool, called with the posting URL.
Is the salary always there?
No. Many postings do not publish one, and the field is absent rather than zero when that happens. Treat a missing salary as unknown, not as unpaid, and check for the key before you compare.
How fresh is the data? Is anything cached?
Every tool call fetches the page at that moment, so a posting pulled down an hour ago is already gone from the results. Nothing is served from a cache.
Can I search a country other than the United States?
Yes. The listing tool takes a <code>domain</code> so a call can target a national Indeed site instead of the default one. Pass one documented value rather than inventing a hostname.
How many calls can run in parallel?
One on the free tier, five on Startup, fifteen on Basic, and fifty on Growth. The larger Growth volumes raise it to 200, 300 and 500.
What happens when I run out of credits?
Nothing is charged on top of the plan. Calls stop until the billing cycle renews.
Does it work with Claude Desktop, Cursor, VS Code and Claude Code?
Yes, all four, plus anything else that speaks MCP over streamable HTTP. Claude Desktop connects through OAuth, and the rest take the URL and an API key header.
Is HasData affiliated with Indeed?
No. HasData is an independent service and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Indeed, Inc. Indeed is a trademark of its respective owner.
