Automotive E-commerce Portal Development

Job ID: 38754100

Budget: $3,000 – $5,000 USD

We’re looking for a seasoned WordPress developer with hands-on experience in JetEngine to build a custom e-commerce portal for tires, axles, and car accessories. This platform will allow users to search and book tire replacement appointments, check real-time product availability at partner shops, and purchase car accessories—all within one seamless portal. We aim to create a powerful user experience that includes AI-driven functionalities to enhance engagement and operational efficiency.

Key Project Requirements:

Tire Search & Booking System:
Users should be able to search for tires by diameter, width, length, and brand.
A booking system will allow users to schedule tire replacements, with availability synced to partner shops.

We want JetEngine’s dynamic listing and filtering tools to make searching through these options smooth and intuitive.

Real-Time Availability Checks with Partner Shops:
When a user selects a tire, the system should check stock availability at various partner shops in real time.
JetEngine’s dynamic content and listings can help display the available partner shops for a selected tire and trigger updates based on inventory status.

Dedicated Stores for Wheel Axles and Accessories:
The site will also have two other main storefronts: one for wheel axles and one for car accessories.
These should be managed and displayed as independent stores, using JetEngine to create custom post types and taxonomy setups for each category, helping us organize and display products more clearly.

AI Functionality Integration (20% of Application):
Personalized Recommendations: Use AI algorithms to analyze user behavior and provide tailored product suggestions to enhance the shopping experience.
Customer Support Chatbot: Integrate an AI-driven chatbot to assist customers with inquiries, guiding them through the purchasing process and addressing common concerns in real time.
Smart Search Functionality: Implement AI-enhanced search that understands natural language queries, making it easier for users to find products quickly.

Email Notifications & Order Confirmations:
Custom email triggers for order confirmations, bookings, and inventory updates.
We’ll use APIs (like SendGrid or Mailgun) for transactional emails and an order confirmation API to notify the right vendors for fulfillment.

WhatsApp Integration:
Notifications through WhatsApp for customers on booking and order updates.
We’re looking to integrate WhatsApp Business API for real-time updates to improve customer engagement and retention.

Payment Gateways:
Integration with PayPal and Stripe for secure transactions.

Technical Stack:
Backend: WordPress, PHP, MySQL
AI/ML: TensorFlow or Scikit-learn (for machine learning models) + Dialogflow (for chatbots)
Frontend: HTML, CSS, JavaScript
Dynamic Interfaces: React or Vue.js (optional for enhanced user experience)
APIs: OpenAI API (for enhanced search functionality) + AWS/Google Cloud AI (for AI services)

AI Knowledge: Familiarity with integrating AI functionalities for personalized recommendations and chatbots.
