**Title:** Automation Developer Needed – Car Listing Workflow (Scraping + AI + System Integration)
**Project Overview**
I am looking for an experienced developer to build an automated workflow that streamlines the process of creating car listings based on auction data, VIN lookup, and AI-generated content.
The goal is to reduce manual work and create a scalable system that can handle a high volume of cars efficiently.
I have attached a workflow diagram that illustrates the full process . The system should follow this logic closely.
---
**Scope of Work**
The automation should include the following steps:
1. **Auction Integration**
* Detect when a car is purchased (e.g., from an auction platform)
* Log into the auction system and download the car’s PDF with details
2. **VIN Lookup**
* Extract VIN from the PDF
* Use VIN to fetch additional data (e.g., via external service [www.partslink24.com](http://www.partslink24.com))
* Download equipment/specification data as PDF or structured data
3. **Data Processing**
* Extract relevant information from PDFs (car specs, equipment, etc.)
* Structure the data for further use
4. **Car Listing Creation**
* Log into our internal system (car management platform)
* Automatically create a new car listing
* Fill in all relevant fields (technical data, equipment, etc.)
5. **AI Integration**
* Generate listing text based on a predefined template
* AI should rewrite/adjust text using the extracted equipment data
6. **Workflow Completion**
* Allow manual review/approval step
* Upload images
* Set price
* Publish listing

**Technical Requirements**
* Ability to build a **robust and scalable system**
* Clean, maintainable code
* Preferably experience with similar automation workflows
---
**Nice to Have**
* Experience in automotive or marketplace platforms
* Understanding of VIN-based data systems
* UI/UX thinking for simple internal tools (if needed)
---
**Deliverables**
* Fully working automation system
* Documentation of setup and workflow
* Ability to scale and modify later
---
**Additional Notes**
This is not a small script – it’s a **complete workflow automation system**.
The right candidate should be able to think in systems and optimize for efficiency and scalability.
---
**To Apply**
Please include:
* Relevant experience (especially similar automation projects)
* Tech stack you would use
* Estimated timeline
* Any suggestions or improvements to the workflow
I am looking for a long-term collaboration if this project is successful.
