Ronald J.
Web/Data Scraping, Business Automation, Lead Gen | Python, Javascript
Lead / Email Databases. Protected websites. Public records. Court systems. Government platforms. I build automated data pipelines that transform difficult-to-access information into lead generation, monitoring systems, business intelligence, and decision-ready datasets. Most data extraction projects are not scraping problems. They are platform and data engineering problems. The real challenge is understanding the systems, APIs, anti-bot protections, public record platforms, and data flows underneath. Experience includes Tyler Odyssey, Socrata, Granicus, Laserfiche, ArcGIS, Akamai Bot Manager, DataDome, Cloudflare, reCaptcha, and dozens of government and enterprise platforms. What appears to be hundreds of independent websites is often a small number of underlying systems, allowing one solution to scale across entire markets, counties, or industries. 10+ years in technology and building data extraction systems plus industry experience working at top companies You describe the outcome you need. I design and build the extraction infrastructure. The result is data delivered where your team already works — database, dashboard, CRM, spreadsheet, API, or scheduled report. Selected work: Government, court & public records — 225+ counties monitored for court filings with ownership distress signals across NC, TX, GA, DE, NY, NY, and many more states — 100K+ business entities extracted from state registries, classified by vertical with AI, enriched with contact data Stack: Python, JS/TS, AI integration, direct platform connections over browsers when possible Best fit for organizations that need reliable access to difficult data and prefer to delegate the problem instead of managing freelancers. Whether it's public records, commercial intelligence, valuation data, monitoring systems, or a difficult platform that others failed to extract from, the engineering layer is usually the same. What you get is resilient infrastructure, not a throwaway script. --- lead generation, lead generation pipeline, real estate leads, real estate data, property data, automated valuation, avm, mls data, skip tracing, court records, court records monitoring, public records, foreclosure data, distress signals, ownership data, business entities, competitor intelligence, price monitoring, data extraction, web scraping, data pipeline, automated data pipeline, anti-bot, cloudflare bypass, akamai bypass, datadome, perimeterx, hidden api, api integration, reverse engineering, python automation, browser automation, scheduled extraction, proxy rotation, captcha solving, ai data processing, llm integration, claude api, anthropic api, ai agents, data classification, data normalization, data cleaning, data enrichment, data validation, document extraction, ocr, etl, data orchestration, postgresql, supabase, structured data delivery, government data, municipal data, regulatory data, foia, granicus, tyler odyssey, socrata, playwright, scrapy, selenium.
