At Zyte, we eat data for breakfast and you can eat your breakfast anywhere and work for Zyte. Founded in 2010, we are a globally distributed team of over 260 Zytans working from over 28 countries who are on a mission to enable our customers to extract the data they need to continue to innovate and grow their businesses. We believe that all businesses deserve a smooth pathway to data.

For more than a decade, Zyte has led the way in building powerful, easy-to-use tools to collect, format, and deliver web data, quickly, dependably, and at scale. And today, the data we extract helps thousands of organizations make smarter business decisions, secure competitive advantage, and drive sustainable growth. Today, over 3,000 companies and 1 million developers rely on our tools and services to get the data they need from the web.

About the Job

You will be a founding engineer on our new Browser Stack team, building the custom browser and automation technology that powers the entire fetching stack at Zyte and gives customers unfettered access to open web data.

Browser engineering is a distinct and demanding core competency: Chromium/V8 internals, stealth patching, and automation-protocol work. Our custom, Puppeteer-free browser already passes every major antibot and scores 0.9 on reCAPTCHA — but detection surfaces shift weekly, and staying ahead requires deep, dedicated browser engineering. You will own that frontier.

Embedded Systems Engineer (Backend & Firmware)

Compensation: $180K - $300K

Location: North America preferred (Would consider South America if can work EST working hours)

We are a lean, high-velocity technical team building the infrastructure that powers the world’s most sophisticated AI models. Our core mission is to democratize access to high-quality public web data at a global scale. We support and power Grass, a massive distributed bandwidth-sharing network and crawler, while simultaneously managing pipelines that process billions of videos, transcripts, and audio files for frontier AI labs.

As an Embedded Systems Engineer, you will be a pivotal member of a small, elite team. This isn't just a firmware role; it’s a hybrid challenge where low-level systems meet high-scale backend architecture. You will lead the effort to architect scalable solutions, optimize networked device firmware, and drive technical excellence to ensure our distributed network remains the backbone of the open web data movement.

Requirements

We are looking for a builder who thrives in a "no red tape" environment and possesses a deep understanding of how software interacts with hardware and networks.

Senior Software Engineer (Backend, AI Infrastructure)

Location: Remote - US only

Compensation: $180K - $300K

We build mission-critical infrastructure that delivers massive amounts of public web data to the companies training the world’s most powerful AI models. Our unique architecture leverages a massive, distributed bandwidth-sharing network to operate a large-scale global crawler, granting us access to high-quality public web data at scale. On top of this, we've built complex pipelines for ingesting, segmenting, and annotating billions of files, including videos, transcripts, and audio, empowering frontier AI labs with essential datasets.

We are a lean, technical team that moves fast, prioritizing high output and low ego. We are seeking a Senior Software Engineer (Backend) with deep expertise to architect scalable solutions and drive technical excellence as we push the boundaries of open web data and AI.

You will join a small, talented team to lead the design and implementation of highly scalable backend systems. Your expertise will be crucial in ensuring the robustness and maintainability of the infrastructure that supports our massive distributed crawler and data processing pipelines. You will play a critical role in shaping the evolution of the internet's role in AI development.
