Software Engineer (JS/Typescript) - part-time

Apify's mission is to make the web more programmable 💻.

Why?

We believe that humans have better things to do than fill in internet forms, compile Excel sheets of copy-pasted data, or watch thousands of videos to determine whether they include a specific brand logo. Those are jobs for machines. And just as we have tools that make our lives easier in the real world, we should also have tools to make our lives easier on the web.

We use web automation to robotize unsubscribe flows to save people money, and we collect billions of rows of data from all over the world for science, market research, or finding lost children.

Fortune 500 companies and small startups alike need this power to make great business decisions 🚀.
