About the Project We have an automotive software project that is already partially built and functional. The core concept, layout, and much of the front-end experience have already been created. We are looking for a developer who can come in, review the existing build, clean up the codebase, fix issues, improve stability, and help get the project ready to go live. This is not a "start from scratch" project. We need someone who is comfortable jumping into an existing build, understanding what has already been created, and helping turn it into a more polished, reliable, production-ready web app. The right person should be able to work independently, identify what needs to be fixed, communicate clearly, and help us finish the project without overcomplicating it. What You'll Do Responsibilities may include: * Review the existing automotive software build * Audit the current codebase for issues, bugs, and weak points * Clean up front-end and back-end functionality where needed * Help stabilize the app so it does not break during use * Improve user flow, routing, buttons, forms, and page functionality * Make sure the app is responsive and works well across screen sizes * Fix bugs, broken pages, broken buttons, and inconsistent behavior * Help connect or prepare basic database/API structures if needed * Review deployment setup and help prepare the app to go live * Help set up or clean up environment variables, hosting, and production settings * Make recommendations on what needs to be fixed now versus later * Work with leadership to understand the business goal and desired user experience * Communicate clearly on progress, blockers, risks, and next steps * Help make the software feel legitimate, stable, and ready for real users, * Examples of web apps, dashboards, SaaS tools, or software projects you have worked o * A short note explaining how you approach cleaning up and finishing an existing software project ## Related Videos - [Watch Tests Go Brrrr! : Getting Started with Cypress in ReactJS](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/282-watch-tests-go-brrrr-getting-started-with-cypress-in-reactjs) - [Innovating Developer Tools with AI: Insights from GitHub Next](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1268-innovating-developer-tools-with-ai-insights-from-github-next) - [ Evaluating AI models for code comprehension](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1462-evaluating-ai-models-for-code-comprehension) - [WeAreDevelopers LIVE – AI, Freelancing, Keeping Up with Tech and More](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1786-wearedevelopers-live-ai-freelancing-keeping-up-with-tech-and-more) - [Bringing AI Model Testing and Prompt Management to Your Codebase with GitHub Models](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1536-bringing-ai-model-testing-and-prompt-management-to-your-codebase-with-github-models) - [It's a Great Time to be a Builder: Leveraging AI for Good](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100042-it-s-a-great-time-to-be-a-builder-leveraging-ai-for-good) ## Related Articles - [Dev Digest 120 - Apple and peers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/455-dev-digest-120-apple-and-peers) - [Dev Digest 121 - AI goes offline](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/456-dev-digest-121-ai-goes-offline) - [Dev Digest 132 - Binging WADFlix?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/473-dev-digest-132-binging-wadflix) - [Find a Developer Job: 12 Best Job Sites For Developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/165-find-a-developer-job-12-best-job-sites-for-developers) - [Navigating the AI Shift](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/629-navigating-the-ai-shift) - [Fully Remote Software Engineer Jobs](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/447-fully-remote-software-engineer-jobs)
