Business Developer Intern

I am building an interactive roadmap—think Jarvis from the movies—that lets staff and customers glide through every step of our dealership’s operations. The first milestone is a full-stack web application focused on inventory management, with a clean UI and real-time data flow the moment a vehicle is added, updated, or sold. Here is what has to work on day one: Inventory management with real-time updates, fast search & filter, and automated low-stock alerts pushed to both dashboard and email/SMS. Seamless hooks into our preferred CRM system, the payment gateway we already use in-store, and any third-party APIs needed for VIN decoding, pricing, or analytics. Tech stack is flexible, but I expect a modern front end (React, Vue, or similar), a robust Node.js or Python back end, and a cloud-ready deployment pipeline (Docker, CI/CD, AWS or comparable). Clean code, version control, and clear API documentation are non-negotiable. Deliverables will be: 1. Source-controlled project with README and setup scripts 2. Deployed staging environment I can click through 3. Short loom or video walkthrough explaining architecture and how to extend it If you have shipped comparable products and can demonstrate tight, well-tested integrations, let’s talk timelines and get this rolling.
