Sobre este proyecto
it-programming / web-development
Abierto
Company Context:
• Small engineering team (4 people) based in San Francisco.
• Fast-paced, startup-style environment with minimal process (no formal Agile/sprints).
• Main tech stack: Python + MongoDB backend.
Project Goal:
• Build one-off, fast integrations with platforms like PitchBook, CapIQ, Bloomberg, etc.
• No official APIs — integrations require reverse engineering of web interfaces.
• Target is to deliver each integration in 3–6 hours, fast enough for internal demos.
• Common challenges: Cloudflare bypassing, non-api endpoints, dom parsing, etc.
• Emphasis on speed and functionality over clean/tested code — scrappy "it works" attitude.
Role Requirements:
• Experienced full stack developer or backend scraper with:
o Strong skills in Python
o Familiarity with bypassing Cloudflare, session-based scraping
o Ability to work modularly and independently
o Quick context switching and minimal hand-holding
• Must be comfortable delivering working integrations quickly, not building long-term infrastructure.
Ideal Candidate Traits:
• “Scrappy winner” who can execute fast
• Comfortable with unstable or undocumented environments
• Able to reverse engineer and deliver under pressure
• No reliance on tools like Selenium; prefers faster/more lightweight solutions
Process:
• Likely trial starting with one integration.
• If all goes well, leads to more integrations in rapid succession.
