Ecommerce Automation SaaS Development

This project involves building a seller-side SaaS application for ecommerce sellers to automate product listing creation.

The MVP focuses on:

-Batch editing of product images (multi-select, async processing)

-AI-generated product titles and descriptions

-Exporting listings to ecommerce platforms (Shopify and eBay)

This is not a marketplace and does not include buyer interactions.

The emphasis is on scalable architecture, async job processing, and reliability.

Detailed scope and roadmap will be shared with shortlisted candidates.

To be considered, please include all of the following in your proposal:

1. Relevant Past Work

Links or descriptions of 2–3 relevant projects, preferably involving:

SaaS applications

API integrations (Shopify, eBay, Stripe, etc.)

Media processing (images, files, async jobs)

Briefly describe your role and what parts you personally built.

2. Suggested Tech Stack

Please outline:

Frontend framework

Backend language/framework

Storage approach for images

Background job / queue system

Any third-party services you would use (e.g., image processing, AI)


3. High-Level Architecture Description

In 1–2 short paragraphs, explain:

How you would structure the system

How batch image processing would work

How exports to Shopify/eBay would be isolated from core logic

No diagrams needed — just a clear explanation.

4. Timeline Estimate

Please provide:

A rough timeline (in weeks)

Key milestones

Which parts you believe are the highest risk


5. Risks, Assumptions, or Open Questions

List:

Any assumptions you’re making

Potential risks you see

Any clarifying questions you have


6. Scope Tradeoffs

If timeline or budget becomes tight:

What would you cut or defer without breaking the MVP?


7. Availability & Communication

Please include:

Weekly availability (hours)

Time zone

Preferred communication method

8. Acknowledgement of Scope

Please confirm that you understand:

This is a lean MVP

Shopify and eBay only (for now)

Batch processing and async jobs are required

No marketplace or buyer features are included
