Software Developer & Web Scraping Specialist | Node.js + Puppeteer | Data Extraction, Automation & Bug Fixing
Hi, I'm Damaris Ngari, a Software Developer based in Nairobi, Kenya.
I specialize in web scraping, data extraction, automation scripts, bug fixing, testing, and building reliable software solutions. I have strong experience working with Node.js and Puppeteer to create fast and stable scrapers that handle both simple and complex websites including dynamic JavaScript sites, pagination, infinite scroll, and login pages where technically possible.
My goal is to help businesses and researchers save time by turning web data into clean, usable formats such as CSV, Excel, or JSON, with proper cleaning and organization. I also enjoy fixing bugs, optimizing code, and creating automation tools that make repetitive tasks easier.
What sets me apart:
- Clean, well-commented code with clear documentation
- Thorough testing and attention to detail
- Reliable on-time delivery
- Clear and professional communication
I am passionate about technical problem-solving and delivering work that clients can depend on for their e-commerce, market intelligence, and business automation needs.
I am available for both small one-time tasks and ongoing projects.
