Web Scraping | CasperJS Expert
min 36 £ GBP / heure
Our " Scrapy & CASPER JS scraping dev", as part of the IT team, will write software for the extraction of web data, including code development, production and implementation, ensuring high quality idea generation, a rapid turnaround time on iterations and feedback, and awareness of best practices to deliver rapid results which can be sustained over time.
We use Scrapy/Python for part of the tasks, and Casper/PhantomJS for the rest.
Your initial task will be to set up a scraper for one TEST website, then we are open to partner on multiple concurrent assignments; specific requirements for our broader scraping needs, beyond the first trial website:
- Websites potentially requiring storage of cookies and session information
- Systematic capture of pricing, product information, and screenshots
- Distributed parallel scraping, with proxy rotation and task monitoring
Deliverables: plug-and-play software code to be used in our production environment.

• Ability to design, plan and execute best-in-class Scrapy & JS-based scraping code

1. Your relevant qualifications and examples of Scrapy and CASPER JS-based past work (links please). Optionally: your LinkedIn profile and/or other relevant social media/GIT repositories
2. Top 3-5 ideas to write elegant scraping code – in very simple sentences, max one line each
3. Confirm that you can respond to our emails/questions within 24 hours (excl. holidays)
4. Your available start date AND how many available max hours/weeks of work you can dedicate to us
5. Preferred pay expectations per target website, with delivery of scraping code used (hourly rate and/or fixed fee)

• Screen candidates within 2-3 day max, based on the answers alone
• Offer a paid trial $50 fixed price job to 2-3 top shortlisted candidates

We take great pride in our hiring process treating it very seriously. We want to ensure a fair outcome for all candidates applying and as such, we only interview in person and connect AFTER the successful completion of the $50 paid trial.
