Perform data retrieval tasks, handling complexities such as pagination and dynamic content loaded with AJAX.
Clean and format extracted data, ensuring it meets quality standards for further analysis or processing.
Database management: Store and manage the scraped data in appropriate databases, optimizing for access speed and data integrity.
Regularly monitor the scraping processes, identify and resolve any issues to maintain continuous data flow.

Bonus points:

Ability to apply machine learning algorithms for data cleaning, categorization, or predictive analysis adds significant value.
Experience with cloud services (AWS, Google Cloud, Azure) for deploying and managing scraping jobs at scale.
Active participation in open-source projects related to web scraping, data processing, or similar fields.
