Ask HN: Do you look for freelance tech opportunities? What do you hate about it?

v1l Sunday, October 01, 2023

I've hired a bunch of contractors over the years for projects and I've done freelancing myself.

There is clearly a need for on-demand, as-needed help for specific projects, launches, or for team augmentation. Companies (especially small and mid sized) have been more open to hiring freelance and remote since Covid, especially for shorter durations and point projects.

I keep thinking that a lightly vetted but less onerous than Toptal, less race to the bottom than Upwork platform for tech talent and companies can absolutely flourish.

Curious what you all think?
