How do I define key deliverables for an ML project on Contra?
Break down your project into smaller goals. Think about what you want each part to achieve. This helps freelance engineers understand what you need. It's like building a big LEGO castle, one piece at a time. Each part should have a clear and simple description.
What should I ask about the ML engineer's previous work?
Learn about similar projects they've worked on. Ask if they have handled problems like yours. Discover how they use machine learning to solve issues. This helps you figure out if they’re the right fit. Past work is like their report card showing what they know.
How can I decide on a timeline for my machine learning project?
Set a realistic time frame based on project size. Discuss how long each part should take with the engineer. It's important that you agree on how quickly you want tasks done. Everyone working should know when they need to have their part finished. Make sure it matches both your needs and their schedule.
What are important factors to discuss before starting a project?
Talk about the data needed for the project. It's like deciding which ingredients to buy before cooking. Agree on the tools and technologies your engineer will use. This ensures everyone agrees on what’s needed from the beginning.
How do I choose the right model evaluation metrics for the project?
Metrics help you see how well the model works. Talk to the engineer about which ones fit your goals. They should explain why certain metrics might work better. Evaluation metrics are like a report card showing how smart a model is.
How can I ensure clear communication with the ML engineer?
Set up regular meetings or check-ins. Use messaging tools to discuss updates and any concerns. It's important to agree on a way to stay in touch, so everyone knows what's happening. Clear communication is like having walkie-talkies on a team adventure.
What is necessary to provide the ML engineer to start the project?
Ensure they have access to data and tools they need. Share any important files or documentation. It's like giving them a map and a flashlight for the journey. Clear instructions and necessary resources help them start the work efficiently.
How do I ensure project goals are aligned and understood?
Write a brief document explaining the goals. Discuss these goals with the ML engineer to make sure you both agree. It's like drawing a treasure map together, so you both know where to go. This ensures everyone aims for the same target.
Why is it important to discuss deployment strategies upfront?
Deployment is when you put the model into action. Talking about strategies is like planning how you’ll launch a rocket. Make sure the ML engineer knows where and how you want to use the model. This helps avoid surprises later on and ensures smooth project delivery.
What aspects of project management should be agreed upon?
Decide who will manage which parts of the project. Agree on how progress will be tracked. It's like everyone knowing which pages to read in a storybook. Clear roles and tracking prevent confusion and keep things moving smoothly.
