MTI Transportation: is a medium sized trucking conglomerate headquartered in Winfield, IL. MTI owns a handful of trucking related companies including Total Trucking Solutions software suite (TTS}. I was brought in to develop new features of their TTS application and to oversee and redesign all the websites and creation of a new site.

The company was using third-party hardware and software systems that were not optimized for their specialty, over-the-road trucking. I assembled a small team of crack coders from Hanoi. We then tapped into the SDK from the hardware manufacturer and wrote a brand-new, mobile application geared to their specific needs featuring nationwide vehicle tracking, routing, route optimization, predictive late delivery intelligence, GEO Fencing, Compliance, truck/cargo monitoring, enterprise stats and analytics. Then we topped it off with a web-based control panel, and a total truck management system. The app suite is so powerful they intent to market it to the entire over-the-road trucking industry.

Technologies: AWS, React Native, PostgreSQL, Swagger API, PHP (control panel), Android Studio, VSCode, Telematics, Canbus, OBDii, Google Maps/Direction Services, Wialon, ELD compliance/FMCSA, Tailwind CSS, Tabulator, Dropzone

One of the coolest things I did here:

• I came up with a order entry tool that eliminated double entry into multiple systems based on Google Extensions.
  
  I don't think this has ever been done before but knew the business needed a solution badly. You see they had 3 major applications that weren't able to be connected via API and each order had to be entered separately ~50 fields (Name address, phone...and the whole order), not to mentions a working master which was in Google sheets. Here's where the magic comes in. The one thing that most applications have in common today is the browser. So, I wrote a Google extension that pulled the order records out of SQL (ERP) and then a click of a button in the menu bar reposted all fields into the other 3 application. Now they only have to enter the order into their ERP and then push the button and all ~50 fields populate into any application open in the browser. EPIC!
