A Scaler is a person who uses an electronic scale to determine whether or not a particular pack has a high rarity card in it. They can do this because Super Rares and Ultra Rares are slightly heavier than a regular Rare card or Common, and an electronic scale can pick up those minute differences. Scalers, however, have trouble picking up Ultimate Rares, because the weight of the foil technology of that rarity is very, very close to that of a common.
