Automotive software development builds the systems that power connected vehicles, fleet operations, EV infrastructure, and dealership operations. The work covers connected vehicle apps, telematics platforms, EV charging software, dealer management systems, ADAS data pipelines, and fleet management portals. OEMs, fleet operators, and EV companies hire automotive software development partners to launch new vehicle apps, integrate telematics SDKs, or modernize dealership systems.
Native iOS and Android apps that pair with vehicle telematics SDKs, surface live diagnostics, remote start, geofences, and trip history. We build offline tolerant clients that sync over MQTT when signal returns. UX patterns are designed for in cabin glanceable use, with one tap actions for the driver.
Route optimization, fuel monitoring, driver behavior scoring, and dispatch workflows. We tie ELD data, GPS feeds, and maintenance schedules into one operator dashboard with role based access and audit trails. Reports cover utilization, idle time, fuel cost per mile, and driver risk scores ranked by event severity.
Backends that pull CAN bus data, MQTT streams, and AWS IoT Core topics into Kafka and ClickHouse. We design for sustained ingestion at 50,000 messages per second with replay windows for back office analytics. Pipelines include dead letter queues, schema versioning, and dashboards for ingestion lag and message loss.
OCPP 1.6 and 2.0.1 integrations, charging session management, load balancing logic, and ISO 15118 plug and charge. We add Stripe or Adyen payment flows. Operator portals and driver mobile apps ship in parallel. Operators get pricing rules, tariff management, station health monitoring, and roaming hub connectivity in one console.
Inventory, lead routing, service scheduling, parts catalogs, and finance integrations. We rebuild legacy dealer tools on React and Java backends with clean APIs for OEM portals and third party CRMs. Service advisors get a single screen for repair orders, parts availability, customer history, and warranty checks.
Sensor data ingestion, labeling workflows, and computer vision pipelines for ADAS training sets. We help engineering teams move from raw camera and lidar drops to versioned datasets ready for model training. Storage tiering, frame sampling, and reviewer queues are wired into your existing MLOps stack.
An automotive lead and a senior architect map your product, pick the stack, and outline team shape inside 48 hours of first contact.
A two week build proves the riskiest piece first, whether that is a telematics ingestion proof or an OCPP handshake against your hardware vendor.
Engineers ship in two week sprints with weekly demos, daily standups in your timezone, and a shared backlog you grade and reprioritize.
After launch we hold a maintenance retainer for bug fixes, vendor updates, and roadmap work, with quarterly platform reviews.

Engineering teams that have shipped MQTT, OCPP, CAN bus, and ISO 15118 work for prior clients.
Geotab, Samsara, and OEM-specific SDKs vary significantly in integration patterns.
EV charging software requires OCPP 1.6 and 2.0.1 mastery.
Telematics pipelines must handle 50 to 200 messages per vehicle per minute.
Vehicle data extraction patterns affect both quality and compliance.
Automotive cybersecurity standards apply to connected vehicle work.
Operators need real-time visibility, route optimization, and alerts.
Computer vision pipelines for safety systems are specialized work.
Pick a team of 3 to 25 engineers who work only on your roadmap. Monthly engagements run from $1,200 to $4,000 per engineer based on seniority. Team composition is locked in week one. You hold direct access to every engineer through your project channels.
Hand us a spec for a connected app, dealer portal, or charging operator dashboard. We deliver a fixed price and timeline after a paid two week discovery sprint. Discovery covers architecture, vendor integrations, and a tested pilot of the riskiest path before scope freeze.
A senior data engineer and an SRE audit your ingestion pipeline, fix throughput and reliability problems, and hand back a runbook. Engagements run four to eight weeks. Output includes a written audit, a fix log, dashboards for ingestion lag, and a paired knowledge transfer with your team.

I looked around at several developers to compare costs, but they didn’t fit within my budget. Finally, I reached out to a company in India called ScalaCode. We set up several online meetings over a couple of weeks and came up with an app that did exactly what I wanted within my budget. I can confidently say that ScalaCode has been an excellent choice for me.

I highly recommend them; if you have a project, contact this company. They always respond on time even though there’s a time difference.
Manuel
CEO, 4SaleThe application was basically built from scratch, and was complicated, as the software was to be integrated with a certain Medical EHR software. As the CEO of SHG, I was very pleased with the services, expertise, and support we received from ScalaCode, from the beginning directly through the first LIVE implementation.
