Scraping Engineer in Belvo

A little bit about us:

We are Belvo, a financial API platform for Latam that enables any company or developer to access and interpret their end-users' financial information. We are turning the rich and diverse Latam financial ecosystem into a set of developer-friendly tools and APIs.

We’re a highly-technical, passionate and driven team. We have offices in Barcelona, Mexico City and São Paulo and some of us work remotely.

We are tackling a very challenging problem: connecting fintech innovators with legacy financial infrastructure. We strive to go beyond the limits of what is possible today and to do so in an elegant and developer-first way.

The data team at Belvo is building services that connect companies and users with their financial and fiscal data. We use technology as a way to democratize access to allow the integration with financial and non-financial institutions.

We retrieve, normalize, and store information from a wide spectrum of data sources, putting our focus on operational efficiency, performance and reliability.
This is a role that requires a strong understanding of networking protocols and event-driven programming.

• Design and develop web scraping pipelines via Python and Javascript. We value efficiency and we use lightweight solutions as opposed to full-blown browser processes.
• Perform network traffic analysis and infer implicit API's from web and mobile applications.
• Understand and be able to reverse engineer authentication processes both in web and mobile applications.
• Have a very good understanding of scraping techniques and how to analyze crawling processes.
• Build parsing and normalization solutions for multiple data sources.
• Stay on top of reliability and data quality by implementing automated quality assurance and monitoring solutions.

• 3+ years of experience as a Developer, even better if with Python
• Degree in Computer Science or equivalent work experience
• Strong experience with techniques and tools for crawling, extracting, and processing data (e.g. Scrapy, Puppeteer, BeautifulSoup, etc.) - the more programmatic and raw techniques you know the better :)

• Fintech and SaaS past experience
• You have mobile scraping expertise (APK decompilation, code analysis and replication, etc.)
• Asynchronous programming experience with Python`s asyncio
• Experience designing and developing RESTful APIs
• Experience building large-scale platforms with a global reach

We give the option to our employees to work fully remote or move to Barcelona to our HQ, where you can enjoy all of our perks, like the short beach distance or a pet-friendly office.
