Logistics Marketplace & Fleet Tracking

A nationwide logistics marketplace that connects shippers with carriers — enabling load posting, competitive bidding, and live GPS tracking of freight across the country. The platform became the operational backbone for a large fleet network handling hundreds of thousands of shipments.

Freight coordination relied on phone calls, spreadsheets, and manual check-ins. Shippers had no visibility into where their goods were, carriers struggled to find return loads, and operations teams couldn't measure performance. The business needed a single real-time system to digitize the entire freight lifecycle at national scale.

As a full-stack developer I owned major parts of the frontend (Angular) and backend (Node.js/Express) — building the bidding workflow, the real-time tracking layer with Google Maps APIs, role-based dashboards, and fleet/team management modules.

• Designed a load-posting and bidding workflow so shippers post freight and carriers bid competitively in real time.
• Built a live fleet-tracking layer using Google Maps APIs, streaming GPS positions and rendering routes, ETAs, and status on interactive maps.
• Implemented role-based access control (RBAC) so shippers, carriers, dispatchers, and admins each see a tailored, secure view.
• Created operational dashboards and reporting (Power BI) to surface throughput, utilization, and delivery performance.
• Optimized data-heavy map and list views to stay responsive at scale.

Real-time geospatial data at scale is as much a UX problem as an engineering one — batching position updates and virtualizing large lists mattered as much as the backend. Clear role boundaries (RBAC) early on kept the product secure and simple as it grew.
