Scraping Engineer

About the Role You'll be an embedded engineer on a fast-moving AI startup team, owning the reliability and quality of a web extraction infrastructure that processes millions of pages daily across hundreds of scripts. Reporting to a Forward Deployed Engineer, this role is critical to keeping a high-volume data pipeline running smoothly and accurately. What You'll Do Monitor and triage a queue of broken scrapers and data quality alerts to keep operations running without interruption. Build and deploy new web scraping scripts for sites requiring data extraction. Validate scraped data for accuracy and investigate discrepancies when they arise. Create dashboards to visualize and monitor scraped data in real time. Collaborate with AI agents to fill capability gaps, resolve issues, and improve existing scripts. What We're Looking For 1+ years of professional experience building or maintaining web scraping solutions. 1+ years working with TypeScript, Node.js, and SQL. Hands-on experience with Puppeteer or similar browser automation libraries. Experience debugging and fixing broken scraping scripts in production environments. Familiarity with message queues (e.g. RabbitMQ) and in-memory caching systems (e.g. Redis). Experience validating data quality and accuracy in extracted datasets. Comfort with GCP or equivalent cloud infrastructure, bash scripting, and git. Exposure to data warehousing tools (e.g. BigQuery) and data visualization or dashboard tooling is a plus. Strong async communicator who proactively flags blockers and sends updates without prompting. Thrives in ambiguous, fast-paced environments with a bias toward action and efficiency. Location Fully remote, open to any time zone. Candidates must be available 8+ hours per day with meaningful overlap during US business hours. Visa sponsorship is not available.
