Job Title: Freight/Container Shipping API Integration Expert (Freightos / Searates / Similar APIs) Project Overview: We are looking for an experienced developer who has previous hands-on experience integrating freight and container shipping APIs such as Freightos, Searates, or similar providers into web platforms. Our goal is to allow users to calculate live shipping rates (freight, containers, bulk) between countries and display available options in real-time. This integration will be part of a B2B export-import platform, where exporters and importers can view and compare live freight rates easily. --- Responsibilities: Integrate one or more shipping rate APIs (Freightos, Searates, or similar). Ensure the system can fetch and display live freight rates for different routes and container types. Provide API documentation setup and assist with API key management. Optimize API response time and handle errors gracefully. Work with our in-house team to connect this module with an existing Laravel/PHP website. --- Requirements: Proven experience integrating freight or logistics APIs. Familiarity with REST APIs, JSON, and PHP/Laravel. Experience working with Freightos, Searates, Cargorates, or Freightify APIs preferred. Must be able to show a live demo or past project involving shipping/freight APIs. Strong understanding of shipping parameters (routes, ports, container sizes, etc.). --- Bonus Skills: Knowledge of multi-vendor marketplace systems. UI/UX experience for displaying rate results neatly. Experience with shipping quote automation or booking APIs (optional). --- Project Type: One-time integration project (with possible long-term collaboration). Remote / Freelance --- To Apply: Please share: 1. Links or screenshots of previous similar work. 2. Which APIs you have integrated before. 3. Estimated time and cost for integration.
