Browser / Kernel Engineer
Pubblicato il 17-08-2026 - SearchApi in Italia
We are looking for the browser person. The one who patches Chromium and Firefox at the C++ source level, maintains our in-house patched-browser cloud, and owns the fingerprint surface that makes our automation indistinguishable from a real user on a real machine. Naive JavaScript spoofing gets caught because the implementation underneath gives it away, so you fix it where it actually lives: in the engine. The goal is simple and uncompromising: we own our stealth browser instead of renting one.
