I've been to this place before with my first project. As non-technical founders our solution was to outsource. Fast forward 2 years, I run a business helping startups outsource their projects, by matching them with dev teams from my curated portfolio.

To do that, we work with the founders on:

1. Properly determining the scope and technical requirements, so things can be predictable 2. Understanding their needs and creating an ideal team profile. Things get complicated later on, if you don't focus on both hard skills AND the soft side - cultural fit, communicational patterns. Also, by looking for a team that already has experience in your industry focus and project type, you can get more than you bargained for. 3. Selecting the most fitted profile. We do this by further distilling the teams, by interviewing them. 4. Providing support on configuring and helping with the relationship management.

Shamelessly, we do this for free. If you need any help, just give me a shout! :)
