I build production-grade Python-based data extraction and Web Scraping systems that survive where others fail.
Projects range from focused data extraction tasks to large-scale Anti-Bot resilient infrastructures — each engineered for stability, performance, and long-term reliability.
Over 12+ years, I’ve designed extraction systems processing 1B+ structured records across marketplaces, aggregators, AI/ML platforms, competitive intelligence systems, and enterprise catalogs. My systems are built using Python, Scrapy, Playwright, and Selenium — combining Web Scraper development, Data Mining, API Integration, and ETL pipeline design into stable, production-grade architectures.
Whether you need a targeted scraping solution or a high-volume distributed pipeline, I architect the right system.
When data becomes mission-critical — reliability matters more than code.
──────────────
What I Build
──────────────
• Custom Python Web Scraper and Data Extraction systems aligned with business logic
• Scalable web crawlers handling anything from selective datasets to millions of pages
• Continuous update pipelines (batch & incremental ETL workflows)
• Queue-based distributed processing
• High-concurrency execution models
• API-based data extraction and system integrations
• Clean ingestion into PostgreSQL / MySQL / APIs / cloud storage
• Automated validation, deduplication & anomaly detection
• Structured Data Mining pipelines for growing datasets
You receive structured, business-ready datasets — not scripts to babysit.
──────────────
Anti-Bot & Protection Layers
──────────────
Modern platforms are protected.I work inside environments guarded by:
- Cloudflare (403 / 429 / Turnstile)
- DataDome behavioral detection
- Akamai Bot Manager
- PerimeterX
- Reverse engineering of detection vectors & TLS/JA3 fingerprint alignment
- Headless & browser fingerprint detection
- hCaptcha / reCAPTCHA v3 Enterprise
- Sustainable session & token lifecycle management
This is not proxy swapping.
This is controlled, sustainable access engineering.
──────────────
Scale & Cost Control
──────────────
As volume increases, scraping typically fails in two ways:
1) Stability collapses
2) Infrastructure & proxy costs explode
I optimize concurrency models, routing logic, batching strategy, request distribution, and traffic patterns to maintain high throughput with controlled infrastructure load.
Where relevant, I reduce proxy and infrastructure costs by up to 30% while preserving system stability.
Result:
High uptime. Predictable performance. Controlled margins.
──────────────
Future-Proofing
──────────────
Websites evolve.
Structures change.
Protection layers update.
I implement structural drift monitoring and heartbeat systems that detect site changes before pipelines fail — shifting from reactive recovery to proactive control.
Most developers fix scraping after it breaks.
I design systems that minimize breakage from the start.
──────────────
Who This Is For
──────────────
• Founders building data-driven products
• AI/ML teams requiring proprietary datasets
• Businesses automating competitive intelligence or market tracking
• Companies where reliable data access supports growth
──────────────
Confidence Check
──────────────
If needed, I can provide a working sample before full engagement to demonstrate data quality and bypass stability.
To get started, send:
- Target website(s)
- Required data fields
- Expected volume
- Update frequency
- Preferred output format
Whether you're starting with a focused scraping task or building a large-scale data infrastructure — let’s build it properly.

Need a web scraping expert who can also build the backend around your data? I have 5 years of experience solving difficult extraction tasks, browser automation (Selenium, Playwright), session/cookies. I’ve built scrapers and data pipelines for different websites, where scraping is allowed. I always keep terms of service and do ethical scraping. I can deliver results in CSV, Excel, Google Sheets, send to your API, or ship the scraper itself. Just write me!
Recent projects:
• Scraped 200k car listings for an ML price prediction model using multiprocessing.
• Built a content-harvesting backend (pipelines + Google Drive/Sheets) used in production.
• Led a Django project that scrapes 100k+ content items (videos, articles, etc.) per week.
• Developed an internal Python library for PostgreSQL via asynchronous SQLAlchemy.
• Reviewed and fixed a client’s FastAPI project to improve reliability and speed.
• Built automation tools for various websites.
• Scraped transcripts for YouTube via an official YouTube API.
Tech stack:
• Python 3.12+, SQL; asyncio and multiprocessing for fast crawling
• Scraping: Beautiful Soup, Scrapy, aiohttp, requests; Selenium, Playwright; HTML, CSS, XPath, JSON,
• Backend: FastAPI, Django; JWT, OAuth2; PostgreSQL, SQLAlchemy (sync/async), SQLite, Alembic; Redis
• Data & automation: Pandas, NumPy; Google Sheets/Drive; Telegram API (Telethon, python-telegram-bot); OpenAI GPT API
• Dev & ops: Docker, CI/CD, GitLab, GitHub; pytest
If you need parsing, scraping, crawling, data extraction, data mining, or an automation script, just send 1-2 target URLs and a sample of the desired output columns. I’ll propose the best approach, the anti-bot plan, and a quick prototype. I always keep the terms of service.
I also handle data cleaning and enrichment with Pandas, plus ETL pipelines, so you get ready to use datasets. As a Python developer who cares about code quality, I write clean, readable code that follows PEP8 and OOP principles, and I cover key parts with tests for long-term stability.
Send me a brief description and technical requirements of your project, and I’ll solve your problem!

I am a web scraping expert with 13+ years of experience in Python-based data extraction from complex and Cloudflare-protected websites using proxies, Playwright, and custom-built scraping software.
I specialize in scraping dynamic, JavaScript-heavy, and protected websites, including business directories, e-commerce platforms, marketplaces, and custom web applications.
Depending on the project complexity, I combine custom Python scripts with proprietary scraping tools to achieve fast, reliable, and cost-effective data extraction. This allows me to efficiently handle both small one-time tasks and large, long-term scraping pipelines.
I work with projects of any size — from quick one-hour jobs to complex, long-term contracts requiring continuous data collection, monitoring, and maintenance.
I have extensive experience scraping a wide variety of websites, from business directories and lead generation platforms to large-scale e-commerce systems. This includes extracting contact data, company and people information, as well as structured product data from high-traffic online stores such as electronics, auto parts, furniture, and other complex marketplaces.
Deliverables include clean, well-structured data in CSV, Excel or JSON
