There are a lot of things called Frontier.
This one finds you work.
Frontier is an independent job board and a morning briefing on AI and startups. It reads company career pages, open job feeds and freelance marketplaces every thirty minutes, sorts what it finds into nineteen engineering disciplines, and throws away anything older than seven days. It is free, it works without an account, and it is not trying to become a social network.
Why it exists
It started as one person’s tool. Job boards are optimised for volume, and the cost of that lands on the reader: the same role posted eleven times, listings that died in March, and a wall of “Account Executive” between you and anything you can actually do. Frontier was built to answer a narrower question — what is genuinely open, in engineering, today.
The seven-day rule is the part people notice. Nothing here is kept because it might still be live. If a posting is on Frontier, it arrived this week.
How it works
- It reads the source, not a middleman. Postings come from company job boards — Greenhouse, Ashby, Lever — and from open marketplace feeds. Frontier is not the employer and takes no applications; every listing links out to the company’s own page.
- A relevance gate reads the title only. It is deliberately strict, and it throws away about three quarters of what arrives. A narrower board that is right beats a bigger one that is not.
- Nothing is kept that cannot be shown. Old postings are deleted rather than hidden, so a page for a closed role returns a proper 404 instead of wasting your click.
- The briefing runs beside it. A morning edition on AI and startups, from around forty sources, so the board sits in the context of what is actually happening.
The developer behind it
Frontier is built and run by Madhav Visani, a developer from India. It is not a company, there is no team, and there are no investors — which is why it can afford to delete postings instead of keeping them for traffic, and why there is no advertising anywhere on it.
He builds the rest of his work at bymadhav.com. Frontier is the largest of those projects and the one he uses himself, every morning, which is the only reason it is this opinionated.
