Here’s what I’m doing: I’m looking to make our lead research process better and get it fully automated. Here’s the process as it stands now: 1. We start with a list of companies and their websites. 2. For each one: scrape their site for shipping facility locations — warehouses, DCs, manufacturing plants. Check their locations/facilities pages and their careers page. Job postings for warehouse, forklift, shipping & receiving, production roles confirm an active facility and usually give the address. Careers pages are inconsistent — some are static HTML, some run through Workday, Greenhouse, iCIMS, or other ATS platforms that don’t always let scrapers in. I need someone who’s dealt with that before and knows how to handle it, not just scrape the easy ones and skip the rest. 3. Identify contacts matching these titles: Transportation Manager, Director of Transportation, Logistics Manager, Director of Logistics, Traffic Manager, Senior Transportation Manager, Senior Logistics Manager, Logistics Sourcing Manager, Logistics Procurement Manager, Transportation Procurement Manager, Transportation Sourcing Manager. 4. Score every contact for whether they’re actually still there — not just whether they show up in a database. Apollo and ZoomInfo are full of people who left or retired years ago but still show as active. The scorecard has to catch that before it goes any further. 5. Enrich the contacts that pass: email and phone. Phones: enriched numbers are usually garbage with no way to verify them. Scrape the company website for the corporate number instead. No 800 numbers — those are dead-end customer service lines. I want a local number so I can call and ask whether the person is still there. I know distinguishing a corporate number from an 800 number on a scraped page isn’t always straightforward — some sites only list the 800 number, some bury the local number in a footer or contact page. Tell me how you’d approach that. Emails: fine as-is — enrich, run through NeverBounce. Non-negotiable: every contact comes out with a score and the specific reason behind it. No black box. I need to see why someone scored high and why someone else scored low. End state: I drop in the list, it runs, output comes back scored and enriched with facility locations attached. Fully automated, repeatable.

We are building an early-stage real estate data platform that collects, cleans, enriches, and serves public-record and legal-notice data for real estate investors and professionals. This is not a greenfield build. We already have an existing backend repo with API routes, database models, migrations, scraping workers, tests, Docker configuration, and cloud deployment pieces. We need a strong backend engineer who can step into the existing system, understand what is working, identify what is risky, and help us get the backend stable enough for launch. The right person is practical, scrappy, and comfortable working in a startup environment where the goal is not perfection. The goal is to find the highest-leverage path to a reliable product. The platform involves: -Public-record and legal-notice data -Property data enrichment -API endpoints used by a frontend application -Data quality, reliability, and launch-readiness Current Backend Stack The backend is built primarily in Python and includes: -FastAPI -SQLAlchemy and Alembic -Postgres / Google Cloud SQL -MongoDB helper/caching layer -Scraping and ETL pipeline for public-record and legal-notice data -Playwright/Patchright-based scraping -reCAPTCHA-aware scraping workflows -LLM-based data extraction / AI-assisted parsing of unstructured notice data -Pydantic models -Google Cloud integrations: Cloud Run, Cloud Scheduler, Pub/Sub, Secret Manager, Cloud Storage, Artifact Registry -Docker -Pulumi infrastructure-as-code -GitHub Actions CI/CD -pytest, Ruff, uv You do not need to be world-class in every tool listed above, but you should be strong enough in Python backend systems, scraping/data pipelines, and cloud deployment to quickly understand the architecture and make sound technical decisions. What We Need Help With We need someone who can: -Review and understand the current backend architecture -Stabilize and improve the scraping / ETL pipeline for public-record and legal-notice data -Make sure public-record and legal-notice data is collected, parsed, stored, and served correctly -Improve backend APIs used by the frontend -Improve data quality checks for incomplete, missing, or inconsistent property records -Build and maintain property enrichment workflows using external data sources -Help design database models for richer property history and event tracking -Improve LLM-assisted parsing of unstructured legal notice data where appropriate -Debug deployment, CI/CD, Cloud Run, and infrastructure issues -Improve logging, error handling, monitoring, and observability -Strengthen test coverage where it matters -Help document the backend so future developers can contribute -Coordinate with our frontend developer to support product launch -Help prioritize backend work based on launch impact, data reliability, and technical risk Who This Is For You are likely a strong fit if you: -Like working inside existing codebases -Can diagnose messy systems without needing everything rewritten -Think in practical tradeoffs, not just ideal architecture -Are comfortable with incomplete documentation -Have experience with scraping/ETL workflows and unstructured data extraction -Can explain technical risks clearly to a non-technical founder -Prefer shipping useful improvements over debating perfect abstractions -Are willing to own outcomes, not just complete assigned tickets Who This Is Not For This is probably not the right fit if you: -Only want clean, fully documented codebases -Prefer to rebuild from scratch by default -Need enterprise-level process before making progress -Are an agency sending rotating developers -Only want tightly defined tickets with no ambiguity -Are uncomfortable with scraping, data quality, or production debugging Hiring Process We want to keep the hiring process practical and focused on real work. 1. Initial Screening We will review your proposal, background, and screening question responses. 2. Real-World Technical Scenario Strong candidates may be asked to respond to a specific backend issue from our current roadmap. We are looking for how you think, what tradeoffs you notice, and how clearly you communicate. 3. Paid Finalist Review A small number of finalists may be invited to complete a paid review of the existing backend codebase before any larger implementation work begins. Budget / Working Style We are an early-stage company and are looking for a practical, startup-minded developer. This is a paid contract role, but we are not looking for enterprise-agency rates. We value clear communication, efficient execution, and someone who can help us prioritize the highest-leverage backend work first. The first paid technical review may be structured as a fixed-price milestone. Continued implementation work may be hourly or milestone-based depending on fit. Long-Term Opportunity Our goal is to find someone who can become a long-term backend partner for the product, not just complete isolated tickets. For the right person, there may be an opportunity to grow into a technical lead / backend ownership role with additional upside tied to company performance. We are looking for someone who wants to help take a real product to market, but the initial engagement will be paid, scoped clearly, and focused on proving mutual fit.

Job Title: Automation & AI Developer — Solar Interconnection Workflow System Project Overview: We are a small but fast-growing startup in the Texas solar/energy sector looking for an experienced automation developer to build a multi-portal workflow automation system. This system will eliminate manual data entry, automate government and utility portal submissions, and use AI to analyze and validate photos. This is a paid project with strong potential for ongoing Phase 2 work as the platform grows. What You Will Build: 1. Multi-Portal Web Automation Using Playwright or equivalent browser automation tools you will automate login, navigation, form filling, file uploads, button clicks, page load waiting, and data extraction across multiple web portals including a utility interconnection portal, a project submission portal with existing API access, and a city permit portal. The utility portal specifically requires multi-page form completion, calculate button interactions with 5-15 second page refresh waits, file downloads, and triggering DocuSign email delivery to customers. 2. API Integration One portal has existing API access. You will build direct API calls for data submission and photo uploads to that portal rather than browser automation. 3. AI Photo Analysis — Two Functions First, field photos of electrical equipment must be analyzed using AI vision (Claude, GPT-4V or equivalent) to automatically extract technical data and pre-fill intake forms — eliminating manual data entry. Second, homeowner-submitted photos received via SMS must be automatically analyzed for completeness and quality. If a photo is blurry, incorrect, incomplete, or unusable the system must prompt the homeowner to retake and resubmit before the photo enters the workflow. 4. Automated Customer Notifications Immediately following the utility portal DocuSign email trigger the system must automatically send the homeowner an SMS message instructing them to check their email and sign the DocuSign document. 5. Status Monitoring & Polling The system must automatically check utility portal application statuses on a scheduled basis over a multi-day period and alert the team when a status changes or receives approval. If a DocuSign link expires without being signed the system must reinitiate the email and send the homeowner a new SMS notification automatically. 6. Mobile Application Integration This automation system will need to integrate with a proprietary mobile application currently in development. All work must be built with clean integration in mind from day one — API-ready, well-documented code is required throughout. This system will also need to support incoming and outgoing webhooks with an existing CRM for specific workflow triggers. Thorough documentation is required as a deliverable, not an afterthought. The developer must treat all systems, workflows, and code as strictly confidential. 7. Central Dashboard A simple internal dashboard to view all active jobs, their current stage in the pipeline, status updates, visual graphs or charts for easy review and identification of issues, and any items requiring human attention or intervention. Required Skills: Playwright or Puppeteer browser automation, REST API integration, AI vision API experience (Anthropic Claude or OpenAI), backend development (Python or Node.js), webhook and SMS integration (Twilio or equivalent), scheduled job and polling workflow experience, basic frontend for internal dashboard, experience building systems designed for third party app integration. Important: All code and intellectual property produced under this contract is owned exclusively by the client. A work-for-hire and IP assignment agreement must be signed prior to project commencement. An NDA is also required. Do not apply if you are unwilling to sign these agreements. To Apply: Please share examples of similar automation or RPA projects you have built, specifically any experience with government or utility portal automation, multi-step form automation, or AI vision integration. Include your proposed timeline and fixed-fee project quote.
