This role is part of our ScraperAPI team, one of our growing brands at saas.group.
ScraperAPI is an enterprise-scale web scraping solution, trusted by businesses across a wide range of industries to extract crucial data at scale. From e-commerce, travel to real estate and market research, we support companies in turning the web into actionable insights.
We’re currently on an exciting growth journey, scaling rapidly as demand for reliable, high-performance web scraping and data keeps rising.
Profile OverviewWe’re looking for a new Fullstack Engineer to join our small and focused engineering team to build the next generation of web scraping tools together. We’re building a world where data collection is a breeze and where publicly available data is at anyone’s doorstep - should you be a marketplace looking for competitor information or an SEO agency collecting search engine data for your customers. The role offers challenges that will keep your brain busy, a chance to work on a large scale product that customers can rely on, a modern tech stack and a great team where people learn from each other.
Our Tech Stack: NodeJS, TypeScript, Redis, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Redis
By the end of your first 6 months with us:
- you'll have developed a reasonable level of understanding of our tech stack, codebase and our CI and CD practices;
- you'll have successfully completed multiple minor bug fixes or feature enhancements; and
- you'll have successfully delivered at least one major feature enhancement.
In your new role you will be responsible for helping to build, maintain and improve our ability to fetch and transform data for our customers, which is vital to our current and future service offerings.
- You will also be responsible for helping to maintain and further develop a large transactional SaaS API and related components that handle tens of thousands of requests every second.
As your role progresses and develops, you will also be responsible for helping to build out our other new service offerings.
What You bring to the table- At least 3 years of experience with Node.js and TypeScript
- Solid background with large scale SaaS applications (tens of thousands of API calls every second)
- Deep understanding of HTTP and related protocols, headers, proxies, cookies, TLS, etc
- Interest in data - fetch, parse data and make it structured for our customers; all these in a scalable, automated way
- Focus on developing for our customers, not for the sake of just releasing things
- Ultimate flexibility: We’re 100% remote. You can work from wherever you like, whenever you like.
- Freedom and autonomy: We’re a high-trust team, and you’ll be given lots of independence to solve problems in your own way — with plenty of help from the team when you need it.
- Minimum bureaucracy: We don’t like to get bogged down with meetings and red tape. We like to be efficient and keep momentum steady & sustainable. We work in a loose agile process because we don't need to remind ourselves what we need to do.
- Small & friendly team: We help each other out, have fun, and joke around.
- Our network: We are a community of entrepreneurial SaaS professionals that regularly exchange ideas, knowledge, learning and expertise with each other internally.
- Unlimited paid time off: We want you to recharge your batteries when needed.
