  • Effective communication in English with both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
  • 4+ years of experience with web scraping frameworks (e.g., Selenium, Playwright, or Puppeteer).
  • Strong understanding of HTTP, RESTful APIs, HTML parsing, browser rendering, and TLS/SSL mechanics.
  • Expertise in advanced fingerprinting and evasion strategies (e.g., browser fingerprint spoofing, request signature manipulation).
