⚠️ IMPORTANT – READ BEFORE APPLYING This is NOT a typical website or WordPress project. This project is about accurately parsing inconsistent PDF documents and extracting structured data. If you have not built a PDF parser where text position, columns, or layout matters, do not apply. Project Overview We are building a foundational system that: Parses Playbill PDF files Extracts structured theatrical data Stores it in a MySQL database Allows admin review and correction This system will later power a public platform (IMDb-style for theater), but Phase 1 is strictly backend + admin tools. Phase 1 Scope (Must Be Completed Fully) 1️⃣ PDF Upload & Parsing Upload Playbill PDFs Parse without using AI / ChatGPT / OCR Use deterministic logic (regex + layout analysis) 2️⃣ Required Data Extraction From each PDF, extract: Show name Theater name Cast list → Actor → Character mapping Crew credits (director, writer, designers, etc.) Handle: Two-column layouts Sectioned layouts (Cast, Ensemble, Production Team) Inline credits and inconsistent formatting Duo credits (e.g. “Book by A & B” → stored individually but marked as shared) 3️⃣ Parsing Rules Must support: Regex rules Visual position parsing (x/y coordinates) Fallback logic when a line cannot be confidently parsed Flag uncertain lines as “Needs Review” Suggested tools (not mandatory): pdfplumber pdfminer PyMuPDF Similar layout-aware PDF tools 4️⃣ Admin Dashboard Review parsed data Edit any field manually Approve or correct flagged lines Manually add YouTube video links 5️⃣ Database MySQL schema with proper relationships Video table: video_url show_id (required) theater_id (optional) year (optional) ❌ What This Project Is NOT ❌ Not WordPress ❌ Not UI-heavy ❌ Not AI-based parsing ❌ Not OCR ❌ Not a “quick script” This is a precision engineering task. Required Experience (Strict) You must have: Proven experience parsing PDFs with layout awareness Experience handling messy, inconsistent document structures Backend experience (Python, PHP, or Node.js) MySQL database design experience Screening Question (Mandatory) Your proposal must answer this clearly: Describe a PDF parsing project you built where text position or layout mattered. What tools did you use (e.g., pdfplumber, pdfminer, PyMuPDF)? What kind of PDF was it? Proposals without this answer will be rejected immediately. Deliverables Working PDF parser MySQL database with extracted data Admin review interface Clean, documented code Future Phases (Not Included Now) Public actor/show/theater pages Joomla integration AI-assisted parsing improvements Analytics & engagement tracking Budget & Timeline Fixed price or hourly (open to discussion) Quality and correctness matter more than speed Final Note If you enjoy hard parsing problems and building systems that must be correct, this project is for you. If you are a generalist web developer, this project is not a fit.

Hello, I’m excited about the opportunity to work on your PDF parsing project. I have experience in building systems that require precise data extraction from complex PDF layouts. For a project like this, I typically use tools like pdfplumber and pdfminer to ensure accurate parsing, focusing on maintaining the integrity of text positions and layouts. Previously, I developed a similar parser for legal documents where layout and text positioning were crucial. To tailor the solution to your needs, could you share more about the specific challenges you've faced with parsing your current PDFs? Are there particular sections of the Playbill PDFs that have been more problematic in terms of layout or data extraction? Additionally, do you have a preferred timeline for completing Phase 1, or are there any hard deadlines we should be aware of? Looking forward to creating a robust backend system that meets your requirements. Best, Azeem Amin

❤️ PDF PARSING & BACKEND ENGINEERING EXPERT HERE When it comes to building deterministic PDF parsers where layout, text position, and inconsistent formatting truly matter, this is exactly the kind of precision work I specialize in. I’ve built layout-aware PDF parsing systems using tools like pdfplumber and PyMuPDF to extract structured data from messy, multi-column documents, combining regex rules, x/y coordinate analysis, and fallback logic to reliably flag uncertain lines for manual review. In one project, I parsed financial and regulatory PDFs with two-column and sectioned layouts, mapping entities into a relational MySQL schema while preserving shared credits and ambiguous cases for admin correction. The focus was correctness over shortcuts—no OCR, no AI guessing—just clean, explainable parsing logic backed by a solid admin review layer. I’m ready to start immediately and can deliver a robust Phase 1 foundation with clean, documented code and a practical admin dashboard. Please send me a message so we can move forward right away.

Hi, I’m Malix Azis, and I carefully read your brief because this is clearly a precision parsing challenge, not a generic backend task ✨ I’ve built PDF parsing systems where layout, text position, and inconsistent formatting were critical to success, and I fully understand why deterministic logic is required here ⚙️ In a previous project, I parsed multi-column legal and financial PDFs using pdfplumber and PyMuPDF, relying on x/y coordinates, line clustering, and regex rules to extract structured data while flagging uncertain lines for manual review ⭐ That experience maps closely to Playbill files with variable sections, duo credits, and inconsistent cast and crew formatting ⚙️ I’m comfortable designing layered parsing rules with fallback logic, storing normalized relational data in MySQL, and building a focused admin review panel to approve, correct, or enrich parsed records without heavy UI overhead ✨ I value correctness, traceability, and clean architecture, especially knowing this system will later support a public IMDb-style platform ⭐ One question I have is whether you already have a representative set of difficult Playbill PDFs for edge-case testing during Phase 1, or if those patterns will be discovered iteratively? Thanks for the detailed description, and I’d be glad to work on this—have a great day ⭐
