The delivery service is expected to create more than 400 jobs in 2025 and offer asset-financing to women & youth through embedded financial services that include them in the formal financial system.
We are looking for support in the development of BEBA a SaaS application designed to streamline last-mile logistics operations for businesses, fleet operators and riders, with real-time order tracking, AI WhatsApp-based communication, fleet management and usage based insurance. The application leverages React for the frontend, Node.js for the backend, XAMPP (MySQL) for the database and OpenAI for conversational query assistance.
