Show HN: I made an MCP Agent That Finds Jobs Based on Your LinkedIn Profile

Recently, I was exploring the OpenAI Agents SDK and building MCP agents and agentic Workflows.

To implement my learnings, I thought, why not solve a real, common problem?

So I built this multi-agent job search workflow that takes a LinkedIn profile as input and finds personalized job opportunities based on your experience, skills, and interests.

I used:

- OpenAI Agents SDK to orchestrate the multi-agent workflow - Bright Data MCP server for scraping LinkedIn profiles & YC jobs. - Nebius AI models for fast + cheap inference - Streamlit for UI

(The project isn't that complex - I kept it simple, but it's 100% worth it to understand how multi-agent workflows work with MCP servers)

Here's what it does:

- Analyzes your LinkedIn profile (experience, skills, career trajectory) - Scrapes YC job board for current openings - Matches jobs based on your specific background - Returns ranked opportunities with direct apply links

Here's a walkthrough of how I built it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zNTWmw72BDs

The Code is public too: https://github.com/Arindam200/awesome-ai-apps/tree/main/adva...

Give it a try and let me know how the job matching works for your profile!

Can it work with https://hiring.cafe? ie is the search target pluggable?

Yes, it can work with that.

Search target is dynamic, you can just mention that in the prompt as a Source for finding jobs, and the agent will find jobs from it.

Curious to know why you choose brightdata mcp server? there are other options like firecrawl?

This is interesting, But what job boards are you targeting? Only YC ones?

Can We add more job portals?

I have used YC Job boards for the Example, You can use different job boards like Wellfound and others. Just mention it in the prompt as a source, and it will work.
