# Developer Needed – Flight Tracking Bot + Mobile App We are looking for an experienced developer to build a flight-tracking solution, initially focused on tracking aircraft associated with Formula 1 drivers, with the possibility of expanding the platform to other public figures and use cases in the future. ## Phase 1 – Twitter/X Flight Tracking Bot The first phase is to develop an automated Twitter/X bot that: * Tracks specific aircraft by registration/tail number. * Uses a reliable flight-tracking/data API. * Detects relevant events such as departures, arrivals, and potentially changes in destination/status. * Automatically publishes updates to a Twitter/X account. * Includes relevant flight information in a clean, consistent format. * Is designed so additional aircraft can easily be added later. * Runs reliably on a cloud/server environment with appropriate monitoring and error handling. ## Phase 2 – iOS & Android App After successfully launching the bot, we would like to develop a dedicated mobile application for iOS and Android. The app should eventually include: * Tracking of selected aircraft. * Real-time or near-real-time flight updates. * Push notifications for departures, arrivals, and other relevant events. * Ability for users to follow/unfollow specific aircraft or profiles. * Historical flight/activity information. * Clean and modern UI. * Backend/API architecture capable of supporting a growing number of users and tracked aircraft. The initial focus will be Formula 1-related aircraft tracking, but the architecture should be scalable so the platform can later support additional categories and public figures. ## What We're Looking For Ideally, you have experience with: * Flight/aviation APIs such as ADS-B Exchange, FlightAware, OpenSky, or similar services. * Twitter/X API and automated posting. * Backend development and scheduled/event-driven processing. * Cloud infrastructure and databases. * Push notifications (FCM/APNs). * iOS/Android development, preferably using Flutter or React Native for a shared codebase. * Building scalable APIs and notification systems. Experience working with aviation data or flight-tracking applications would be a strong advantage. Please include examples of relevant projects you have previously built and briefly explain how you would approach Phase 1, including which flight-data provider/API you would recommend. We are looking for someone who can ideally work with us beyond the initial bot and help develop the project into a complete mobile platform.

Hi, tracking F1 pilots' tail numbers is a fun niche pull for a bot. For Phase 1 I'd go with ADS-B Exchange over FlightAware since their API terms are friendlier for a bot reposting to X, and it handles registration-based lookups cleanly. I'd set it up as a scheduled worker polling per aircraft, diffing state (departed/landed/status change) before it posts, so you're not spamming duplicate updates. Quick flag though: the EUR 30-250 budget won't cover Phase 1 properly plus a two-platform app later. Happy to scope Phase 1 alone first as a small paid trial so you can see how I work before committing to the app build. My team's been doing React Native and Node backends for a while now, mostly notification-heavy apps with FCM/APNs. Want me to sketch the bot architecture so you can see the approach before deciding?

Hi, I can build Phase 1 as a reliable, scalable flight-tracking bot and structure the backend so Phase 2 can extend directly into iOS/Android without rebuilding the core. Approach: • Integrate a reliable aviation API such as FlightAware, ADS-B Exchange, or OpenSky based on coverage, latency and cost • Track aircraft by registration/tail number with scheduled/event-driven polling • Detect departure, arrival, destination/status changes and avoid duplicate posts • Automated Twitter/X publishing with consistent flight-update formatting • PostgreSQL-based flight/event history with configurable aircraft profiles • Cloud deployment with logging, retries, monitoring and failure recovery • REST API designed from the beginning for the future mobile app • Phase 2: Flutter + FCM/APNs for cross-platform tracking, follows, history and push notifications I’ll keep aircraft/public-figure configuration database-driven so adding new tracked aircraft requires no code changes. Estimated timeline:Phase 1: 2–3 weeks. Phase 2 can follow after the bot is validated. I can also provide full source code, deployment documentation and ongoing support. Best, Christina

Hey there, Starting with Formula 1 aircraft is a great MVP, but the important part is building the tracking engine so adding more tail numbers, profiles, and event types later is straightforward. I’d handle Phase 1 with a reliable aviation API, event driven flight detection, X posting, duplicate prevention, retries, and monitoring, then expose the same backend through an API for the future mobile app. I’ve built API driven automation and mobile platforms where reliable background processing and notifications are critical. For Phase 2, I’d use Flutter or React Native with FCM, keeping aircraft history, follows and notification rules in the backend so the app can scale without duplicating logic. Would you like me to propose the flight-data API and Phase 1 architecture based on your initial aircraft list? Looking forward to collaborating with you.

Tracking Formula 1 aircraft registrations on Twitter/X and then scaling into a full iOS and Android app is exactly the kind of event-driven, multi-phase build I have done before. Here is my execution plan: Flight Event Engine: I will poll ADS-B Exchange on a 60-second interval rather than using webhook-style hooks, because F1 race weekends generate sudden spikes in tracked aircraft activity and polling gives me reliable control over rate limits without dropped events. Twitter Bot Layer: I will use Twitter API v2 with a config file listing tail numbers, so adding a new aircraft registration takes under two minutes and zero code changes. Cloud Deployment: AWS Lambda with CloudWatch alarms handles self-recovery from ADS-B timeouts automatically, which matters because race weekends are exactly when the bot must not go silent. One problem worth flagging: ADS-B Exchange and OpenSky both have coverage gaps in certain regions, particularly parts of the Middle East and Asia where several F1 circuits are located. I will build a fallback between two APIs so Bahrain or Singapore departures are not silently missed. Mobile Foundation: React Native backend inherits the same flight data layer from Phase 1, with FCM and APNs wired in from day one. Phase 1 delivered live within 7 days at 126 EUR. Should each tweet include the F1 driver name alongside the tail number, or stay registration-only given potential naming restrictions on X?

Hi, I’ve read your phased plan carefully, and this is exactly the kind of scalable product I can help you structure from day one. For Phase 1, I’d build a reliable Bot Development workflow around a flight-data provider like ADS-B Exchange or FlightAware, with event detection, clean posting logic for Twitter/X, monitoring, and a backend designed so new aircraft can be added without friction. For the mobile roadmap, I can help shape the API and app architecture for iOS Development and iPhone users first, while keeping Android expansion efficient through a shared approach. The key is to design the database, notification flow, and tracking logic now so real-time updates, history, and follow/unfollow features remain fast as the platform grows. I can outline Phase 1 architecture, recommended API stack, and delivery milestones right away, with the bot foundation ready first and app planning aligned behind it. If the bot had to spill the tea first, which matters more: ultra-fast alerts or richer flight details? Best regards, KANIKA
