Summary

Join Rayobyte, a leading web scraping and proxy provider, as a Senior Web Scraping Engineer. You will architect and develop highly resilient web scrapers capable of bypassing sophisticated anti-bot measures. Responsibilities include reverse engineering bot detection mechanisms, designing fingerprint evasion techniques, and optimizing scrapers for speed and efficiency. This role requires 5+ years of experience in web scraping, browser automation, and bypassing anti-bot measures, along with strong programming skills in JavaScript and Python. You will collaborate with the infrastructure team and work remotely with flexible hours and benefits. If you enjoy solving complex web scraping challenges and possess the skills to outmaneuver modern anti-bot protections, we encourage you to apply.

Requirements

  • 5+ years of experience in web scraping, browser automation, and bypassing anti-bot measures
  • Deep understanding of bot protection services (e.g., fingerprinting, browser validation, TLS detection, rate limiting, etc.)
  • Strong experience with headless browsers (Puppeteer, Playwright, Selenium, Camoufox) and stealth techniques
  • Knowledge of fingerprint spoofing (WebRTC, WebGL, Canvas, AudioContext, Fonts, etc.)
  • Proficiency in JavaScript and Python (Node.js, Puppeteer, Playwright, Scrapy, Selenium)
  • Experience with low-level browser manipulation, including modifying Chrome DevTools Protocol and handling browser internals
  • Familiarity with TLS fingerprint evasion, JA3 signatures, and session persistence
  • Ability to work autonomously, think critically, and devise creative solutions to web security challenges

Responsibilities

  • Architect and develop highly resilient web scrapers capable of extracting data from websites that deploy sophisticated anti-bot measures
  • Reverse engineer bot detection mechanisms, including fingerprinting, behavioral tracking, and JavaScript challenges
  • Design and implement browser fingerprint evasion techniques, including modifying WebGL, canvas, audio, TLS fingerprints, and other unique identifiers
  • Mitigate CAPTCHAs and bot protections using headless browsers, residential proxies, and alternative approaches
  • Analyze and circumvent dynamic obfuscation techniques (e.g., encrypted payloads, dynamic tokens, browser challenges)
  • Optimize web scrapers for speed, efficiency, and long-term resilience
  • Collaborate with our infrastructure team to ensure scalability and stealth at high volumes

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience with anti-fingerprinting research or browser automation tools
  • Background in cybersecurity, ethical hacking, or penetration testing
  • Prior experience working at a web scraping company or data provider
  • Familiarity with AI-driven automation for CAPTCHA solving
  • Experience with network analysis tools (Burp Suite, Charles Proxy, Wireshark) for reverse engineering requests and payloads

Benefits

Fully remote team with flexible hours and benefits
