I build scrapers that work. No templates, no copy-paste scripts that break in a week.
8 years building production data pipelines, crawlers, and automation tools. I've scraped everything from JavaScript-heavy SPAs to login-protected dashboards to sites with aggressive anti-bot measures.
What I deliver:
- Clean, structured data in CSV, JSON, Excel, Google Sheets, or direct to your database
- Scrapers that handle pagination, rate limiting, proxy rotation, and CAPTCHAs
- Ongoing monitoring scripts that run on schedule and alert on failures
My stack: Python (Scrapy, BeautifulSoup, Selenium, Playwright), Node.js (Puppeteer), headless browsers, rotating proxies, cloud deployment (AWS, Railway, Render).
I also build Chrome extensions and browser automation tools if your project needs a browser-based solution.
Fast turnaround. I scope accurately and deliver on time. Message me with your target site and I'll tell you if it's doable and how long it'll take — no charge for the assessment.

If your data is stuck in the wrong system, in messy files, or behind an awkward API, I can help. I turn complex data problems into working systems and usable deliverables.
I help clients move data between platforms, automate manual work, clean up unreliable exports, and build workflows that save time and reduce errors. Whether the deliverable is a program they can keep using, or a clean CSV, Excel file, report, or database, I can make it happen.
Most of my work is API integrations, ETL pipelines, backend automation, data processing, and data migrations. I'm at my best when the problem is not clean or perfectly defined. I'll solve that problem first.
I build data workflows that are meant to hold up in real use. I work with complex APIs, big JSON or XML data files, elaborate schema, folders full of CSV and Excel files, and large datasets where correctness matters. The result is a cleaner dataset, a dependable program, or a responsive and well-designed workflow.
If you need a dependable program, a solid new system, or a clean final dataset, I can help.

You need a guarantee. You can't waste your money on a solution that won't deliver results. Most businesses can't work that way.
But mine can.
You have a problem. I am your solution. I refuse to take your money. I refuse. That is until I have delivered actual value. It can't be any other way. Your business matters too much.
Don't believe me? Well, see what my clients have to say:

"Matt did an incredible job... He was not only highly skilled and efficient but also honest and transparent throughout the process. Communication was great, and he delivered exactly what I needed—if not more. I couldn’t be happier with the results. Highly recommend working with him!"
"Matthew was very thorough and transparent. He was helpful and able to get the job done. So grateful to Matthew for his work!"
"Outstanding collaborator, knowledgeable and patient. Great work!"
"Matthew's communication was clear, prompt, and professional, making every step of the process smooth.

He was always available for discussions and proactive in scheduling meetings, which made collaboration effortless. I also appreciated his transparency—he was upfront about what was feasible within my budget, which made expectations clear from the start. Highly recommend working with Matthew!"

I also specialize in secondary mathematics education and tutoring. In addition to this educational experience I teach English as well, especially as a second language to Spanish speakers. My work has taken me all over the world. I have lived in London, Italy, and Honduras (parlo la lingua bella, Italiano, y hablo español como un resulto). But better than all my technical skills and experience is my understanding of people and what they really want and need. Ultimately, I desire to be the best disciple of Jesus Christ that a Catholic can be. And here I find myself on UpWork trying to do His work through business. I am a potentially unique solution to your problem. Let's talk!
