Freelance Web Scraping Engineer (Vibe Coding)

The Role: AI-Powered Data Extraction

Mindrift is seeking remote specialists in Mexico to join the Tendem project as "AI Pilots." In this freelance capacity, you won't just be writing scripts; you’ll be the human intelligence guiding a fleet of AI agents to extract and structure data from the web's most challenging corners. This is a hybrid role where your domain expertise meets cutting-edge automation to deliver high-quality datasets.

Tech Stack & Vibe Coding Integration

You will leverage a sophisticated stack including Python, Apify, and LLM orchestration via OpenRouter to build resilient scraping pipelines. The focus is on using natural language and AI tools to handle dynamic content and complex site architectures. Rather than manual line-by-line coding, you will use AI frameworks to accelerate data collection and enforce strict quality controls through automated validation checks.

Key Focus Areas

• AI Orchestration: Using LLMs and AI frameworks to enhance automation and solve extraction puzzles.
• Scalable Scraping: Deploying parallelized workflows for massive datasets across interactive, JS-heavy websites.
• Quality Guardrails: Providing the critical thinking and systematic verification that AI agents lack to ensure data accuracy.

Why This Opportunity Rocks

This role offers a flexible, remote schedule and the chance to pioneer "vibe coding" workflows in a professional setting. With rates up to $21/hour, it’s an ideal playground for developers who prefer high-level architectural oversight and AI-assisted problem solving over tedious manual maintenance.
