Who are we? We are a bunch of techies set out to solve the complex and inefficient logistics segment for the world. The core team is dominantly IIT Bombay alumni and is passionate about solving the problem. We boast of our small but efficient team and our achievements till date are more than a validation for that. We are currently operating from Chandivali, Powai. We are operational in 4 major cities - Mumbai, Pune, Bangalore and Delhi. What do we do? Rocketbox is primarily a tech hub. We believe technology is the most vital element in solving problems at scale. Logistics is a 200 billion dollar market in India alone and comprises about 14% of the national GDP. Its obvious from the numbers that it is seemingly complex and gigantic in scale. We started with the small segment of intra city goods movements which concerns with last mile delivery of products for manufacturing and ecommerce companies. One of the major problems with the segment is it’s highly fragmented and most vendors cannot provide the service required for a company individually. A major result of the fragmentation is that any value added services are not possible. We leverage technology to solve this problem by providing a simple intuitive interface for the end user to manage (demand or terminate) vehicles, track their consignments, check their usage and invoices. We strive to remove human involvement wherever possible. This simplicity amounts to building a complex technical infrastructure in the backend. This is only our first step into logistics and we aspire to move into other segments which are even more complex and unique, which require complex engineering to solve them Technical Overview We are primarily a rails shop (part nodejs) with postgres/postgis, mongodb and redis at database layer and leverage AWS via chef for infrastructure. We value and follow agile methodologies like scrum, code reviews, extensive test suite, continuous integration, frequent deployments.
