About the Role
We are seeking a highly skilled Python Automation Developer with proven expertise in automating modern, JavaScript-heavy websites—particularly those built with React.js and protected by CAPTCHA or other anti-bot systems. You will play a key role in developing automation for job application processes, handling complex login flows, bypassing anti-bot measures, and integrating with our frontend systems.
Key Responsibilities
- Automate job application processes across multiple job portals.
- Manage login workflows, including username/password, OTP, and email verification.
- Bypass CAPTCHA and anti-bot protections (Cloudflare, hCaptcha, reCAPTCHA, etc.).
- Handle sessions, cookies, proxies, and stealth automation techniques to prevent detection.
- Extract and submit job applications using APIs or browser automation tools.
- Collaborate with our React.js frontend team to ensure seamless integration.
Required Skills & Experience
- 5+ years of experience in Python automation (Playwright, Selenium, Puppeteer for Python).
- Strong ability to automate single-page applications (SPAs) built with React.js.
- Experience working with REST APIs, authentication flows, and session management.
- Proven track record of bypassing anti-bot systems and solving CAPTCHAs (e.g., 2Captcha, CapSolver, custom solutions).
- Expertise in handling proxies, rotating IPs, and managing user agents.
- Ability to write clean, modular, maintainable code with robust error handling.
- Familiarity with debugging tools (React DevTools, browser devtools) for complex DOM interaction.
Nice-to-Have
- Integration of Python automation with React.js applications.
- Experience optimizing headless browser performance.
- Prior work on auto-login flows for job portals or similar high-security platforms.
What We Expect from You
- Share relevant tools, libraries, and approaches you’ve used.
- Provide examples of past automation projects, particularly for JavaScript-heavy sites.
- Mention experience in CAPTCHA-solving and anti-bot bypass.
- Include your availability and hourly rate.
