About Ivo
I help automotive companies fix issues in parts catalogs, VIN systems and fitment data.
With 20+ years of real experience in automotive parts (OEM & aftermarket) and QA testing skills, I can quickly identify data, compatibility and logic issues that typical testers miss.
I have worked with systems such as BMW ETK, Mercedes EPC, VAG catalogs, Toyota, Hyundai, Kia and others.
I understand how parts data, VIN decoding and fitment logic work in real-world scenarios – not just from a testing perspective, but from actual industry experience.
I can help you with:
✔ Testing automotive platforms (catalogs, e-commerce, VIN systems)
✔ Fitment and compatibility validation
✔ Parts catalog QA and data verification
✔ API testing (Postman)
✔ Product data validation and cleanup
✔ Available for small tasks and quick fixes
✔ Fast onboarding and immediate start
Availability: ~20 hours per week
