FAQs

Before searching for a freelance backend engineer, clearly define the project scope, timeframes, and key deliverables. Outline the technical requirements, such as preferred programming languages, frameworks, and any existing systems that the engineer needs to integrate with. Having detailed project specifications will assist you in finding an engineer whose skills and experience align with your project's needs.
To ensure a smooth onboarding process, provide the freelance engineer with all necessary access to tools, platforms, and resources from the outset. Share comprehensive documentation about the existing system architecture and any relevant coding standards your team adheres to. Scheduling an initial meeting to discuss the project’s objectives, communication plan, and timelines will also set clear expectations and foster a collaborative working relationship.
When defining project milestones with a freelance backend engineer, break the project into smaller, manageable components with clear objectives. Agree on specific deliverables and deadlines for each milestone to ensure that both parties have a mutual understanding of the project's progress. Regularly reviewing these milestones together throughout the project can aid in tracking progress and making any necessary adjustments to the project plan.
