FetchFox.ai | Founding Engineer | Remote, US & Canada | Full-time | Competitive comp FetchFox is looking for an exceptional engineer to join our team. We’re making an AI powered web scraper. You can type what you want in English and it automagically handles all different site layouts and data schemas. It’s 10x easier than using CSS selectors and code, and it lets non-coders scrape also. Try it out at https://fetchfox.ai. However, if you’re applying for this job, you might like the Javascript library. To install it, use npm: npm install fetchfox And then try this snippet, which scrapes all the job listings on HN “Who’s Hiring”: import { fox } from 'fetchfox'; const results = await fox .init('https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=42575537') .extract({ company: 'Company name', url: 'URL of the company website' }) .extract({ summary: 'Summarize this website in 10 words' }) .run(null, (delta) => { console.log(delta.item) }); console.log('Results:', results); We’re looking for someone with top notch programming skills, fast coding, and a great sense for technical design. The role is open-ended, and there is challenging work to be done on many aspects of the project, including the core library, proxies, the website, and more. The only requirement is that you must have excellent technical skills. Our compensation is competitive. Our cash compensation is similar to YC founding engineer roles, but our equity compensation is unique. We offer at around an order of magnitude (10x) more than comparable companies.
