Full-Stack Developer/Designer Needed for Automotive Platform Redesign (Webflow/React/Next.js)

We are looking for a talented, autonomous Full-Stack Developer with strong UX/UI design skills to completely redesign and rebuild our national vehicle acquisition website. The goal of this project is to transform our current digital storefront into a high-converting, modern lead-generation engine that competes effectively with major online car aggregators. You will be responsible for the entire lifecycle: wireframing the new user experience, creating a sleek design, and writing clean, performant code to implement it. 🎯 Key Project Goals & Scope: Hero Section Redesign: Create an intuitive, high-converting valuation widget at the fold supporting License Plate, VIN, and Year/Make/Model lookup fields. Dual-Path UX Flow: Design and build clear, interactive paths guiding users through our two service models: In-Store Appraisals vs. Remote "We Come To You" collection. Mobile-Optimized Photo Intake: Build/implement a seamless, friction-free vehicle photo upload tool specifically optimized for mobile browsers (for dashboard, exterior angles, and VIN stickers). Trust & Social Proof Integration: Elegant layouts highlighting our extensive business history, licensing credentials, and real-time client reviews. Third-Party API Integration: Experience connecting vehicle evaluation APIs (Black Book, KBB, Carfax, or similar valuation data providers) to dynamically pull vehicle details via plate/VIN is a massive plus. 🛠️ Preferred Tech Stack: We are open to your architectural recommendations based on what will deliver the fastest, most secure, and most SEO-friendly result, but we are leaning toward: Frontend: React, Next.js, Tailwind CSS, or a high-end Webflow implementation if paired with custom JS for API integrations. Backend/Integrations: Node.js, Python, or robust serverless functions to handle secure API data retrieval and lead routing. Design Tools: Figma (for initial wireframes and design sign-off). 📋 To Apply, Please Provide: A brief summary of your experience with similar lead-generation or vehicle-valuation platforms. 2-3 links to live websites you have personally both designed and developed. Your preferred tech stack for a project like this and why.
