We need is a excellent PHP/jQuery coder who is experienced with PHP (and probably Laravel or another good framework) as well as Amazon MWS (those that have done alot of work with API's probably do not need MWS specific experience). We need someone who is capable of doing fairly large projects. If you are a good coder who is interested please apply or ask questions if you are interested but aren't sure.
We have a large project that we want done (basically an order/inventory management system for Amazon and eventually other venues). It would be similar to TheArtofBooks. But I want to start with a small portion of the project to get an idea of your programming skills/communication/ability to think for yourself and ask questions when needed/offer advice. If it works out great (I'm going to do anything I can do to make it work out great and to make sure I pick a good coder) then we will continue with the rest of the project in milestones.
I'm not going to exclude anyone but I like developers from Europe. We need an excellent coder with a good history (preferably with larger projects) on this site. This is a serious project and we are looking for a serious developer.
The budget is only for the whole project bot just the repricing part mentioned below. But we want bids based on just the repricing part explained below.
The first part of the project that I want a bid on is:
Repricing script based on Amazon MWS subscriptions API:
*Basically Amazon now has the subscriptions API where you can subscribe to ASINs that you have current inventory and get responses every time a price changes.
*The system would make a list or however it works of the current inventory that matches certain criteria in my current MySQL database. I think this list would change as items go in and out of stock in my DB. It would make a subscription for these items.
*It would get the data from the subscription API probably every 10 minutes.
*Whenever a price changes it would change the price in the DB as well as add a row in another DB table with sku, new price, qty. The rules would be price a penny lower than competitor price but only if higher than bottom price (every item in DB has a bottom price) and would be compared against the lowest new or used offer (depending on condition of sku).
*If there are no competing offers price at 4 times the bottom price.
*Also there should be an ability to automatically revert prices higher (maybe 5 times bottom price) during one or two hours in the night so that competitors will raise their prices as well.
*We wouldn't need an user interface for this - just use chron and put settings in config file. Won't need a framework for this part either.
Here are the questions I would like answered by applicants:
*Are you available for 25 to 40 hours a week for several months?
*Are you proficient in PHP and jQuery?
*Have you developed any web apps? If so can you give a description?
*What framework is your favorite (if you use one)?
*Have you worked with Amazon APIs (especially MWS)?
*What is your bid on this part of the project (the repricing part)?
*How many hours do you estimate it should take?
*What is your very rough price and time estimate on the whole project (basically something like TheArtofBooks or Fillz)? I realize this isn't going to be probably too accurate but it might give an idea of price and time ranges.
I'm here to answer any questions.
