JavaScript Deobfuscation / Reverse Engineering

Charted Sea | JavaScript Deobfuscation / Reverse Engineering | REMOTE | Full-time | https://chartedsea.com/about We build a SaaS to extract data from complex platforms like Shopee. They use heavy obfuscation & anti-bot systems, and our job is to break them. We are working on a deobfuscator that turns obfuscated JavaScript into readable code. It behaves like a decompiler: - restore strings (e.g. `f(42)` → "my-string") - simplify control flow (`a && b || !a && c` → `if (a) { b } else { c }`) - unpack sequence expressions (`var a = (c=1, b=1+c, 3+b+c)`) - decompile a custom bytecode VM (70K instructions) This is not typical web/backend work. The target platforms evolve constantly. We're looking for someone who: - enjoys understanding complex systems by experimentation - is comfortable with partially understood code - has built non-trivial tools (parser, interpreter, RE tool, etc.) You will: - own the deobfuscator - work directly with the founder - have time to go deep (long-term problem) Stack: TypeScript, Babel Compensation: $40k–$80k USD + monthly bonus (10% of net revenue shared with team) Apply: marc.plouhinec@chartedsea.com (short intro + CV/GitHub)
