Python Developer to Deploy Automated Daily Web Scraping System (Playwright)

I own 3 car wash locations in Pennsylvania and need to automate my daily revenue reporting. I already have all the Python code written - I need someone to deploy it, calibrate it for my specific accounts, and make sure it runs reliably. What's Already Done: Complete Playwright scraper code for 3 payment portals PDF report generator Email sending script Setup documentation What I Need You To Do: 1. Server Setup (1-2 hours) Spin up a small DigitalOcean droplet (or similar) - I'll pay for hosting Install Python, Playwright, and dependencies Deploy my existing code 2. Selector Calibration (2-3 hours) Log into each of my 3 payment portals using credentials I provide Use the selector discovery tool to find the correct CSS selectors Update the scraper config so it works with my specific accounts The portals are: Hamilton Hosted Solutions (cloud-based) Sierra Server (on-premise web interface) Cryptopay (credit card processor) 3. Testing & Debugging (1-2 hours) Run the scraper in debug mode until it pulls correct data Verify the numbers match what I see when I log in manually Fix any edge cases or timing issues 4. Schedule & Monitoring (1 hour) Set up cron job to run daily at 6 AM Eastern Configure email alerts if the scraper fails Send me the daily PDF report via email 5. Documentation & Handoff (30 min) Document how to restart if something breaks Show me how to check if it's running Brief screen-share walkthrough Technical Details: Python 3 with Playwright (async) Headless Chromium browser PDF generation with ReportLab SMTP email sending (Gmail) Ubuntu server (DigitalOcean preferred) Timeline: Looking to have this running within 1-2 weeks. No rush, but steady progress preferred. After Initial Setup: I may need occasional support (maybe 1-2 hours/month) if a website changes and breaks the scraper. Happy to establish an ongoing relationship for maintenance. To Apply, Please Tell Me: Have you built web scrapers with Playwright or Selenium before? Have you deployed Python scripts to run on a schedule (cron)? Are you comfortable debugging selector issues when websites change? What's your availability over the next 2 weeks? Bonus if you've worked with payment portals or POS systems before, but not required. Apply tot his job
