FAQs

When reviewing a freelance software engineer's portfolio, focus on their technical skills, the complexity and scale of past projects, and how they align with your project requirements. Look for examples of problem-solving and innovative solutions in previous work. Verify that the projects demonstrate a strong understanding of relevant programming languages and technologies that will be necessary for your project.
To ensure the freelance software engineer understands the project deliverables, clearly outline the project scope, objectives, and expectations in a detailed project brief. During initial discussions, ask the engineer to articulate their understanding of the deliverables and how they plan to achieve them. Encourage open communication and ask them to provide a rough project timeline with milestones for completion. This will help verify they fully comprehend what is required.
To effectively manage the project timeline and milestones, set up regular check-ins and progress updates to monitor the project's advancement. Utilize project management tools to track deadlines and foster transparent communication. Clearly define milestones with associated deliverables and ensure both parties are in agreement on these early in the process. This will facilitate alignment on project goals and ensure timely completion.
