Hi HN! Solo founder here. Built PayRankJobs (https://payrankjobs.com) after my (tech writer) wife kept getting spammed with $55K job "opportunities" when she's already making $200K.

What it does: - Upload your resume.

  - Set your minimum salary requirement (optional).

  - Get an email with personalized job matches that actually pay well.

  - Includes AI-researched salary data (base + equity) and company ratings

Technical stack: - Serverless on Cloudflare Workers

  - LLM for resume parsing

  - LLM for embeddings/matching

  - PostgreSQL + pgvector for similarity search

  - Dynamic job fetching via Google.

Key differentiator: Instead of browsing endless job boards, the system finds YOU the highest-paying roles. No more wasting time on jobs that don't meet your salary requirements.

Currently works for all english speaking countries (not just US) and provides salaries in local currency.

I haven't figured out monetization yet - currently burning through my own money on API costs. Would love ideas on this. Some thoughts:

  - Charge job seekers after X matches?

  - Recruiting/sourcing tool for companies?

  - Premium features (more frequent updates, salary negotiation tips)?

I'd love feedback on:

  - The onboarding experience

  - Email format/content

  - What other features would be valuable?

Happy to answer any questions about the implementation.
