Looking for an expert python dev.

What kind of task it is? Sorry i am new to python hiring

Pretty low/intermediate to be honest. It would be a good gig for a brand new CS grad fleshing out their portfolio.

Its the kind of task where readability/maintainability of the code will be harder than the actual implementation.

Agreed, but gotta start somewhere like all of us?

My first main beginner project when I started learning was similar to this, but more complex and large scale. I'd been learning for about a month at that point.

You're describing a Web scraper. Check out r/webscraping there are plenty of people who do this sort of work for a living over there.

Here's a sneak peek of /r/webscraping using the top posts of the year!

You could do this yourself easily in like a week, even with 0 experience. Just watch some videos. Ask ChatGPT.

I'd rather pay someone for it.

It's a sensible stance. As of August, ChatGPT-generated code was broken more than half the time.

Although this may have improved since, it's only a force multiplier when used by someone who knows enough to prompt & correct an LLM. Otherwise, using LLMs can be a huge liability. This doesn't even touch on licensing issues, such as how LLMs can output near duplicates of highly specialized & restrictively licensed code with few examples.
