Scalable Food Delivery Platform Expansion with Advanced Backend and Frontend Migration

The client operates a successful meal delivery platform for businesses, but after a corporate acquisition, there is a need to enhance system scalability, improve operational efficiency, and modernize the technology stack to support expansion into new markets and cities. The existing platform requires backend performance reinforcement, legacy frontend modernization, and flexible management capabilities to handle increased operator and client volumes seamlessly.

A rapidly growing food delivery service that specializes in providing individual meal options for corporate clients, aiming to expand its market presence and operational capacity.

• Design a robust system architecture to facilitate broad business scaling capabilities across multiple cities.
• Reinforce existing backend infrastructure with deep expertise in Python to support high-volume, reliable operations.
• Migrate the frontend application from an outdated framework to a modern, reactive JavaScript framework to enhance user experience and maintainability.
• Implement a flexible permission management system to allow operators to efficiently control their configurations, clients, and offerings as the platform expands.
• Ensure high code quality standards, automate quality assurance processes, and optimize DevOps practices for faster development cycles and reliable deployments.
• Enable seamless integration with various external operator systems to maintain unified user experiences across diverse regions.

• User management and access control including flexible permission configurations for various operator levels.
• Meal and menu management allowing operators and clients to set, modify, and plan menus and delivery schedules up to 7 days in advance.
• Order processing system capable of handling high transaction volumes with high reliability.
• Integration layer for connecting with external operator and client systems to synchronize data and streamline workflows.
• Analytics and reporting dashboards for operational oversight and decision-making.
• Automated quality assurance mechanisms and continuous integration/deployment pipelines to ensure code integrity and rapid feature rollouts.

• External operator and client management systems for data synchronization.
• Payment gateways for transaction processing.
• Logistics and route planning services as needed for delivery optimization.
• Reporting and analytics tools to support operational insights.

• System scalability to support expansion into multiple cities with potential user base growth exceeding 40 million transactions.
• High system reliability and uptime ensuring service availability of 99.9%.
• Secure data handling practices with compliance to data privacy standards.
• Automated testing and QA processes to maintain high code quality and reduce manual errors.
• Efficient CI/CD processes facilitating rapid deployment cycles.

The project aims to enable the client to significantly expand its operational footprint across multiple markets with seamless scaling capabilities, leading to increased market share in the corporate food delivery sector. Expected outcomes include improved system robustness, enhanced user experience, and optimized operational efficiencies, ultimately supporting growth to serve over 40 million transactions and maintaining high availability and code quality standards.
