Project description:
"I need a developer (or small team) to build the first stage of a Field Technician Dispatch Platform.
The system connects a WordPress admin dashboard with an Android app used by field operators.
Admins will manage incoming service calls, create jobs, and dispatch them to nearby operators. Operators receive notifications, submit quotes, update job progress, and handle payments — all synced with WordPress.

Clients are not app users; they call in to request help.

Core Components
1. WordPress Admin Plugin

Used by office staff to:

Create new service jobs with client & vehicle info

Dispatch jobs to operators within ~35 km radius

View incoming bids and assign one operator

Track job status updates in real time

Manage payments and cash collection balances

View each operator’s balance (platform owes / operator owes)

2. Android Operator App

Used by field technicians to:

Receive push notifications for nearby jobs

Accept or reject jobs and quote a price

View assigned jobs and navigate to client/destination

Update live job status (Accepted → En Route → At Scene → Clear → Completed)

Upload photos and fill a quick Condition Report (simple drawing on a car outline)

Handle cash collection, payment confirmations, and see balance info

Toggle availability (share GPS when active)

Key Features (Stage 1 MVP)

Live WP ↔ App sync via API

GPS-based operator filtering (within 35 km)

Push notifications (Firebase preferred)
