Python Developer / Web Scraping Engineer

Reviewshake is building the home for all online reviews - be it local business reviews, products, mobile apps, music, movie, podcasts and more.

Our main platform is a SaaS product that provides a management layer for businesses to manage reviews on 80+ review sites, including Facebook, Google, Yelp and Trustpilot. As a technology company, we also commercialize the tech that powers our company through several APIs in our Supervisor product.

We're an established business with hundreds of paying customers and a team of 10, and are searching for a full-time web scraping engineer that can help expand and maintain our scraping infrastructure. Being bootstrapped (not venture-backed) and fully remote, we don’t strive for growth at all costs, and are building a company that we can be proud of, and enjoy working for.

Requirements

Our ideal candidate has:

  • 3+ years of experience scraping the web
  • Strong knowledge of Python and Scrapy
  • Experience with high volume scraping (eg. rotating IPs, CAPTCHAs)
  • A passion for delivering highly maintainable and scalable code
  • An appreciation for data quality and consistency

Nice to have:

  • Experience working with Redis and queues
  • A keen eye for detail, striving for perfection
  • Self-starter who is able to take ownership of projects

In a typical day, you will:

  • Maintain our scraping infrastructure
  • Adding scrapers based on ongoing requirements
  • Uphold our high engineering standards and bring consistency to our product development
  • Ensuring data quality and consistency across our scraping

Benefits

Our team is fully-remote and we communicate primarily through Slack, Asana and a few short, weekly meetings via Hangout — we believe the best work happens when given lots of uninterrupted time that’s free of distractions.

  • $50k - 65k salary (USD)
  • 0 - 0.1% options
  • 26 days of holidays
  • Co-work expenses covered
