Overview

Supporting SnappCar in their transition to a more modern tech stack, reducing cost and help simplify the tech stack they’ve build up over 13 years. There were quite a lot of moving parts and a lot of legacy code. I reduced the moving parts and helped them simplify the tech stack. As a side effect, I also reduced their cost by over 25%.

Since SnappCar is a rental company, they are required to report the income of their users to the tax authorities. I helped them with the DAC-7 reporting, and converting the data they have to the format required by the tax authorities.
