Python Developer Needed for Custom Local Document Automation & Quote Generator Job Description: I am looking for an experienced Python developer to build a custom, local desktop tool (or simple local web app) to automate my daily product quotation workflow. The Problem: I generate custom quotes for products daily, which currently takes me about 30 minutes per quote. I have an archive folder of over 2,500 past quotes ([PDF and Word versions or each quote) containing detailed technical product descriptions, images of the product, price and a specific layouts that I want to use. What the Tool Needs to Do: User Interface: Provide a simple, clean interface ~ local on my Windows PC or browser based, whatever is easiest (I prefer m local directory) but I don't really care ... that does the following: First ... using the example quote attached, create a similarly styled template which the following information can be "pulled into". 1. User inputs Customer Name, Company Name, Current Date, and Quote Number. 2. User inputs part number(s) that they want to add into the quote template. 3. SW searches & extracts from my archive folder of 2,500+ past quotes ~ finds the MOST RECENT quote with the matching part number(s) based on the past quote date, 4. SW extracts product information and ports into our new WORD quote template. 5. SW populates extracted info along with new customer details into WORD template that I currently use. Note that there is a product image in the old quotes that will have to be pulled over. Required Skills: -- Python (strong scripting and text processing) -- PDF/Word parsing and generation (e.g., pdfplumber, python-docx, ReportLab) -- Simple GUI development (Streamlit, PyQt, or Tkinter) Please reply with a brief description of a similar document parsing or automation tool you have built.
