Job Title: Senior Full-Stack Developer Needed – NestJS + React/TypeScript Fuel Levy Pricing Engine for Rideshare Platform Job Description: I am looking for a highly skilled full-stack developer to build the first production-ready version of a vehicle-specific fuel levy / energy levy pricing engine for my rideshare platform based in Queensland, Australia. This system must be designed as a secure backend-driven pricing engine, where the commercial logic remains private on the server and is not exposed to the browser. The purpose of the system is to calculate a fair trip-based fuel or energy levy using approved vehicle data and live/local fuel pricing inputs, with support for petrol, diesel, hybrid, and EV vehicles. The backend must be built using Node.js, NestJS, TypeScript, Prisma, and PostgreSQL, and the frontend must be compatible with ReactJS + TailwindCSS v3 + TypeScript. This is not a simple calculator widget — I need a clean, modular, scalable backend foundation that can later integrate into a larger commercial transport platform. Project Scope: The developer will be responsible for building the backend architecture and core API endpoints required for the levy engine. This includes creating a proper NestJS project structure with separate modules for vehicles, fuel pricing, and levy calculations, along with Prisma models, DTOs, controllers, services, validation, and environment configuration. The system must securely store approved vehicle records including make, model, year, fuel type, registration, and official consumption data such as L/100km for petrol/diesel/hybrid vehicles and kWh/100km for EVs. A fuel pricing layer must be built to support ingestion of Queensland fuel pricing data, including storing price snapshots by postcode/suburb/fuel type and returning the most relevant local fuel price or fallback value where needed. The levy engine itself must calculate values using actual formulas based on vehicle-specific approved data and local price inputs, return a structured breakdown, and log each calculation to the database. Required Formula Logic: For petrol, diesel, and hybrid vehicles, the levy must be calculated as: chargeableKm × (officialLPer100Km / 100) × fuelPricePerLitre For EVs, the levy must be calculated as: chargeableKm × (officialKwhPer100Km / 100) × electricityRatePerKwh Where chargeableKm = tripKm + pickupKm. The backend must retrieve the approved vehicle, retrieve the relevant local pricing, calculate the levy, round sensibly, and save the calculation log. Core Deliverables: I expect the developer to deliver a proper backend codebase with a clean folder structure, complete Prisma schema, NestJS modules, DTOs, database models, service logic, environment setup, and working API endpoints such as: create vehicle, get vehicle, create fuel snapshot, get local fuel price, and calculate levy. I also want sensible fallback behaviour where local data is missing, validation that only approved vehicles can be used in levy calculations, and code written in a professional, maintainable, production-conscious style. The frontend UI itself is not the focus of this job, but the API must be fully compatible with a React/Tailwind frontend. Important Requirements: The pricing logic must remain server-side and must not be exposed publicly. The developer should understand secure API design, modular NestJS development, Prisma/PostgreSQL integration, and scalable architecture. Strong TypeScript skills are essential. Experience with transport, dynamic pricing, logistics, fleet systems, or financial calculation engines would be highly regarded. I want someone who can think commercially and architect this properly, not just throw together a basic demo. Bonus Points If You Can Also Help With: Future integration of real Queensland fuel price data feeds, admin approval workflows for vehicle validation, pricing version control, anti-gaming protections, fallback regional pricing logic, and broader transport platform API architecture. What to Include in Your Proposal: Please send examples of previous work using NestJS + TypeScript + Prisma, especially any systems involving pricing logic, transport/logistics, SaaS platforms, or secure backend APIs. Also explain how you would structure this project, how you would keep the pricing engine private and secure, and whether you can assist with future stages after this first backend foundation is complete. Project Preference: I prefer a developer who can build this in a way that is scalable for long-term use, because this may lead to additional work for the full pricing engine, rider pricing flows, driver payout logic, admin dashboards, and broader platform APIs.

Hi — this is the right kind of problem for a clean, backend-driven engine: keep the commercial logic private, make calculations auditable, and leave a modular NestJS foundation that can grow into a broader transport pricing system. I’ll implement a structured NestJS codebase (TypeScript + Prisma + PostgreSQL) with separate modules for Vehicles, Fuel Pricing, and Levy Calculations. Vehicles are stored as “approved records” with official consumption data (L/100km or kWh/100km), and the pricing layer stores fuel/electricity snapshots by postcode/suburb/fuel type with a clear fallback strategy when local data is missing. The levy endpoint then resolves the approved vehicle, selects the best available local price, calculates the levy with a sensible rounding policy, returns a structured breakdown, and writes a calculation log to the database for traceability. The API stays secure and server-only: validation, access controls for admin endpoints, and a design that prevents exposing the formula logic or inputs in the browser beyond the final levy breakdown. I’ll ship this with clear environment setup, migrations, and a handover-ready README so it drops into your platform cleanly and supports future stages (feeds, approval workflows, pricing versioning, anti-gaming).

Hi there! I’ve read through your requirements for the Queensland-based levy engine, and I’m confident I can build a solid, production-ready foundation using NestJS and Prisma. I focus on clean, modular architecture keeping that sensitive pricing logic strictly server-side within a dedicated calculation module. I have extensive experience building secure TypeScript APIs where accuracy is non-negotiable. I'll ensure the Prisma schema handles the vehicle data and local pricing snapshots efficiently, while the service layer manages the specific fuel/EV formulas with proper fallback logic. I’m happy to assist with the future data feed integrations and admin workflows once this core engine is live. I'll attach a few examples of similar pricing/SaaS backends I’ve architected.

Hello there, I will build the fuel levy pricing engine as a modular NestJS backend with separate modules for vehicles, fuel snapshots, and levy calculations, using Prisma with PostgreSQL and strict TypeScript throughout. The API will return only the final levy breakdown without exposing formula constants or intermediate values in any response. For security, I will keep all pricing logic within internal service methods that are never directly mapped to controller routes. The DTOs will only expose the calculated result and a reference ID, so even if someone inspects API responses, the consumption rates and pricing formulas stay hidden server-side. Questions: 1) For the Queensland fuel price snapshots, do you have a specific data source in mind, or should I design the ingestion layer for manual entry first? 2) Should the calculation log store raw input values for audit purposes, or just the final result and vehicle reference? Ready to start whenever you are. Kamran

Hi, Thank you for posting this good task! I understand your goal: build a secure, production-ready fuel/energy levy pricing engine for your rideshare platform where all commercial pricing logic remains strictly server-side, using NestJS + TypeScript + Prisma + PostgreSQL, with APIs consumable by a React + Tailwind frontend. I have strong experience designing modular NestJS backends and pricing engines, including systems where financial logic must remain private and auditable. For this project, I'd structure the project with clear modules: Vehicles, FuelPricing, LevyEngine, and CalculationLogs, using DTO validation, Prisma schemas, and service-layer isolation to keep the pricing logic fully internal. The levy calculation service would retrieve the approved vehicle record, resolve local fuel pricing, run the formula, apply rounding rules, and store a calculation log for auditing. For scalability, I would also introduce versioned pricing logic, strict vehicle approval flags, and rate-limited API access to prevent abuse. Estimated timeline: 2~3 weeks A few questions: 1. Will Queensland fuel data come from an API feed or manual admin ingestion initially? 2. Should calculation logs include trip IDs for future rideshare reconciliation? I’d also be happy to support *future pricing, driver payout, and platform API expansion. Best regards, Diah

Hi, Your project is very similar to backend systems I’ve built where calculation logic and pricing rules must stay secure on the server. I can help build a clean, production-ready NestJS backend for your fuel/energy levy pricing engine. From your description, you need a NestJS + TypeScript backend that stores approved vehicle data, ingests fuel pricing snapshots, and calculates trip-based fuel or energy levies through secure API endpoints for a React + Tailwind frontend. Why me: • Experience with Node.js, NestJS, TypeScript, Prisma, and PostgreSQL • Built secure APIs with protected pricing/financial logic • Focus on modular architecture and clean, scalable code • Clear Git workflow with well-structured commits My approach would be to structure the backend into Vehicles, Fuel Pricing, and Levy Engine modules using Prisma models, DTO validation, and service layers. The levy calculation will run entirely server-side so the pricing logic remains protected, with validation to ensure only approved vehicles and verified pricing data are used. ✔I’d like to clarify a few things - Will the Queensland fuel price data come from an API or periodic snapshot uploads? - Do you want admin authentication for vehicle approval in this phase?

Hi there To build the vehicle-specific fuel levy pricing engine for your rideshare platform, the most critical part is designing a secure backend architecture where the pricing formulas, vehicle validation, and fuel pricing inputs remain completely server-side and cannot be exposed to the client. Since the system must support different vehicle types and calculate levies based on official consumption data and local fuel pricing, the backend should be structured as modular NestJS services handling vehicle data, fuel price snapshots, and levy calculations independently while maintaining clear validation and audit logging. The implementation would focus on establishing a clean NestJS project structure with Prisma models, DTO validation, service layers, and API endpoints designed for long-term scalability. Particular attention should be given to pricing fallback behaviour, calculation logging, and ensuring only approved vehicle records can be used during levy computation. This approach keeps the pricing engine secure, modular, and ready to integrate into broader transport platform services such as driver payouts, pricing flows, and operational analytics. After reviewing the detailed requirements and confirming the scope, I will provide a precise implementation timeline and development estimate based on the final architecture. If this direction aligns with your goals, let's discuss the details further in private chat.
