Our trucking and delivery SME is seeking a skilled data engineer to implement a real-time analytics system to improve fleet management efficiency and decision-making. Leveraging cutting-edge technologies like Apache Kafka and Spark, our goal is to optimize route planning, vehicle utilization, and operational costs, ultimately enhancing customer satisfaction and service reliability.

📋Project Details

As a trucking and delivery SME, we are experiencing challenges in efficiently managing our growing fleet and ensuring timely deliveries. The lack of real-time insights into our operations has led to suboptimal route planning, increased fuel consumption, and reduced customer satisfaction. To address these issues, we aim to implement a sophisticated real-time analytics platform. The project involves setting up Apache Kafka for event streaming to capture live data from our fleet, employing Spark for processing massive data sets, and utilizing Airflow for orchestrating data workflows. Data will be consolidated in a robust warehouse environment using Snowflake or BigQuery. This system will enable us to derive actionable insights through real-time dashboards powered by Databricks and dbt. The anticipated outcome is a significant reduction in operational costs and improvement in delivery times, enhancing our competitive edge in the industry.
