FAQs

How do I define the skills I need in a freelance smart contract engineer?

What are the key qualifications to look for in a smart contract engineer?

Look for someone with a track record in smart contract development. Experience with blockchain platforms and related technologies is a must. Check for a strong portfolio and relevant certifications. This shows they have the skills needed for your project.

How should I verify the smart contract engineer's past work?

Ask for links to their previous projects. Look at their GitHub or online portfolio. Check the quality of their code and their contribution to open source projects. This helps you see their expertise and style in real-world applications.

How can I ensure the smart contract engineer understands my project requirements?

Have a detailed project brief ready. Clearly explain your goals, timelines, and deliverables. Make sure they ask questions to clarify their understanding. This helps ensure both parties are aligned from the start.

What should I include in the initial discussions with a smart contract engineer?

Discuss the project scope, budget, and deadlines. Make sure to talk about the specific technologies involved. Clarify any legal or regulatory requirements related to the smart contracts. This helps set clear expectations.

How do I agree on the deliverables of a smart contract project?

Discuss and write down all deliverables at the start. Make sure they include all expected outcomes. Agree on milestones or stages to track progress. This creates a shared roadmap for the project.

How can communication be maintained effectively during the project?

Decide on communication tools before you start. Set regular check-ins to review progress and ask questions. Keep the lines open for any urgent updates. Consistent communication helps catch issues early.

How can I assess the project's success upon completion?

Test the final deliverable thoroughly against your original requirements. Check if all functions work as expected and if the smart contract is secure. Make sure it aligns with your goals and outcomes. A successful project meets all predefined criteria.

Why is it important to have a legal agreement when hiring a smart contract engineer?
