Who uses Lever?
Lever is a recruiting platform with a strong foothold in the startup and growth-stage tech sector. Acquired by Employ Inc. in 2022, its customer base skews heavily towards software companies, internet businesses, and venture-backed organisations. Confirmed customers include Netflix, Spotify, and Shopify. Unlike some ATS platforms, Lever postings often include salary ranges - making the data particularly valuable for compensation analysis and labour market benchmarking.
Lever job data is valuable for:
- Sales intelligence teams tracking hiring activity at tech companies, startups, and venture-backed businesses.
- Labour market researchers analysing salary trends and hiring patterns in the software and internet sectors.
- Job boards serving tech professionals who need postings from high-growth and startup employers.
- Competitive intelligence teams monitoring hiring signals at specific tech companies or in emerging sectors.
Why teams use a data provider for Lever job data
Lever does not offer a job market data product for external teams. Collecting job posting data comprehensively across all Lever companies at scale - and keeping it current as companies grow, restructure, and post new roles - requires ongoing investment that most teams cannot sustain internally. Techmap delivers this as a managed data product.
Common reasons teams choose a data provider:
- No direct data product from Lever - hiring data from Lever companies is not sold or licensed externally by Lever or its parent Employ Inc.
- Lever's customer base spans thousands of companies globally - comprehensive coverage requires monitoring all of them continuously.
- Lever covers one segment of the tech hiring market - complete intelligence requires data from other ATS platforms, job boards, and employment offices alongside it.
- No historical data from Lever externally - multi-year hiring trend analysis or salary benchmarking requires an archive that Lever does not provide to the market.
- Post-acquisition roadmap uncertainty - since the Employ Inc. acquisition in 2022, Lever's product direction has been less publicly communicated; a data provider insulates teams from platform changes.
