We are looking for a talented backend developer for the automation of a citation & referencing education tool. This person will ideally have experience in TypeScript/Python or similar and DB experience to be able to write the citation rules that will help students automate this process.
The tool is required to be accurate & tested to ensure students don’t lose marks and be plagiarism free. As this will be a global student product we can expect high traffic. The tool is required to have the functionality to scale so a serverless technology such as Lambda may work well here.
Top level detail on the tool: • Will use 3rd party APIs (3 in total) as data sources. • Users can enter a URL, the tool needs to go that URL to gather the HTML and then query it for specific information. • 90 rules in total have been created that are required to be automate. • JSON API/s to connect the tool to the site and provide the calls that the frontend guys require to make it work for the user.
It is important for this person to be able to work to strict deadlines and be happy to follow specific details so the rules are accurate.
We would be happy to discuss this opportunity with people who feel they are capable of producing the required accuracy with the rule and provide the testing required to achieve this.
