Description

  • Own end-to-end data extraction workflows across complex websites and deliver structured datasets.
  • Use internal tools such as Apify and OpenRouter, along with custom workflows, to accelerate data collection and validation.
  • Ensure reliable scraping from dynamic and interactive websites, including JavaScript-rendered content and changing site behavior.
  • Enforce data quality standards through validation checks, cross-source consistency checks, and systematic verification before delivery.
  • Scale scraping operations for large datasets using batching or parallelization while monitoring failures and maintaining stability.
  • Adapt scraping approaches to handle anti-bot mechanisms, archived pages, inconsistent HTML, and other complex site structures.
  • Clean, normalize, and structure extracted data for delivery in formats such as CSV, JSON, and Google Sheets.

Requirements

  • At least 5+ years of relevant experience in data engineering, web scraping, automation, or software development.
  • Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Engineering, Applied Mathematics, Computer Science, or a related technical field is a plus.
  • Strong experience in Python web scraping using BeautifulSoup, Selenium, or similar tools.
  • Experience extracting data from dynamic content such as JS, AJAX, infinite scroll, and APIs via proxies.
  • Proven ability to work with complex structures such as hierarchies, archived pages, and inconsistent HTML.
  • Solid background in data cleaning, normalization, and validation of structured datasets.
  • Demonstrated experience handling anti-bot mechanisms and dynamic site structures at scale.
  • Experience with cloud infrastructure such as AWS or equivalent and containerization with Docker in real workflows.
  • Hands-on experience with LLM frameworks such as LangChain, OpenRouter, or similar automation tools.
  • Upper-intermediate English proficiency (B2) or above.
  • Strong attention to detail, ability to troubleshoot independently, and a self-directed work ethic.
  • A GitHub link is a plus.

Benefits

  • Part-time remote freelance opportunity.
  • Estimated workload of around 10–20 hours per week during active phases.
  • Compensation of up to $45 per hour equivalent, depending on level and pace of contribution.
  • Opportunity to work on AI projects from major tech innovators through the Mindrift platform.
