    Job DescriptionWeb Scraping Specialist

    $75k – $125k
    • 0.06% – 3.0%

    Wynd is an early-stage startup empowering access to public web data. Wynd Network enables access to public web data through decentralized data scraping tools such as our first product, Grass.

    Grass is a network sharing application that allows users to sell their unused internet bandwidth.

    Your day-to-day:

    • Write, test, and refine code that extracts data from various online sources, ensuring reliability and efficiency.
    • Perform data retrieval tasks, handling complexities such as pagination and dynamic content loaded with AJAX.
    • Clean and format extracted data, ensuring it meets quality standards for further analysis or processing.
    • Database management: Store and manage the scraped data in appropriate databases, optimizing for access speed and data integrity.
    • Regularly monitor the scraping processes, identify and resolve any issues to maintain continuous data flow.

    What experience you'll need:

    • Demonstrated ability to extract data from complex websites with minimal supervision, with a portfolio or examples of past projects.

    Technical requirements:

    • Proficiency in languages such as Python or JavaScript, with strong skills in libraries and frameworks like BeautifulSoup, Scrapy, or Selenium.
    • Knowledge of asynchronous programming, multithreading, and distributed scraping.
    • In-depth knowledge of HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and the Document Object Model (DOM).
    • Experience with NoSQL databases (MongoDB, Cassandra), capable of designing efficient storage solutions and managing data integrity.

    Bonus points:

    • Ability to apply machine learning algorithms for data cleaning, categorization, or predictive analysis adds significant value.
    • Experience with cloud services (AWS, Google Cloud, Azure) for deploying and managing scraping jobs at scale.
    • Active participation in open-source projects related to web scraping, data processing, or similar fields.
