Worldwide

Summary

Overview: Build a reliable automation workflow that takes structured data from our REST API and submits it into a third-party web platform that does not offer an integration . This is not simple scraping. The goal is to create a stable, production-ready automation that can handle authentication, dynamic pages, and ongoing site changes. What You’ll Build An application (script or service) that: 1. Fetches data from our REST API 2. Logs into a third-party website 3. Navigates and completes multi-step forms 4. Submits data reliably, with validation and error handling The solution should be designed to run repeatedly and handle failures gracefully. -Core Requirements Strong hands-on experience with browser automation (Playwright, Puppeteer, or Selenium) -Proven experience with: Form automation on external websites Authentication flows (sessions, cookies, tokens) JavaScript-heavy / dynamic pages Ability to design for reliability: Retry logic Structured logging Failure handling and recovery -Nice to Have Experience building automation as a service (not just scripts) Familiarity with browser extensions or headless browser environments Experience integrating REST APIs into workflows Understanding of anti-bot behavior and how to avoid common pitfalls -What We Care About A robust and maintainable solution, not a fragile script Clear structure and documentation Thoughtful choice of tools and architecture Clear communication and progress updates We’re flexible on stack, but we expect you to justify your choices. -Deliverables Working automation (script or service) Setup and usage documentation (Optional) Lightweight UI or monitoring layer, if you believe it adds value -To Apply, Please Answer Describe a similar automation you’ve built involving third-party websites. What made it challenging? Which tools would you use for this project, and why? How would you design the solution to handle frequent UI/HTML changes? How do you approach reliability (retries, logging, failure handling)?
