> I’ve found that hiring contract devs for say 20 hours per week yields the same output as an FTE at 40

This is interesting bc of how common it is to hear people complain about pointless meetings. Do you see a sacrifice in devs not being familiar enough with the product?

Not in the 10 months we’ve existed. We’ve had a few backend devs in that time. We make sure everything is written down, and I make myself very available for questions - mostly async, but I’m not opposed to a call if it makes things faster.

It helps that our tech isn’t that complicated - python/Django backend, slack app and react frontend.

Any positions open currently?
Not currently, but certainly in the future we’ll have opportunities that open up. Feel free to reach out - email in bio.
