Description

  • Own end-to-end data extraction workflows across complex websites and deliver accurate, structured datasets.
  • Use tools and custom workflows to accelerate data collection, validation, and task execution.
  • Extract data from dynamic and interactive websites, including JavaScript-rendered content and changing site structures.

  • Experience with data cleaning, normalization, validation, and structured dataset delivery.
  • Experience handling anti-bot mechanisms and dynamic site structures at scale.
  • Practical experience with AWS or equivalent cloud infrastructure and Docker containerization.

Benefits

  • Remote, freelance opportunity with flexible project-based participation.
  • Estimated workload of 10–20 hours per week during active project phases.
  • Potential compensation of up to $45 per hour equivalent, depending on expertise and contribution pace.
