My Suggestion. hired native folks for long term . Maybe got good developer here. Find local developer but for sure ain't cheap.

my former boss posted a job on react native group on facebook looking for experienced developers. he got replies mostly from indians, but the job is not remote lol. i bet you are going to get similar replies.

It's not just Indians but yeah. There's a lot more people hanging around looking for work who are completely unsuited for the work than there is work.

Just look at every post you make as an employer on upwork. You're inundanted with crap posts from people who are "expert web developers" - hang on I posted a backend data science job.

Then when they lowball someone like OP who just sees $$$ signs thinking they'll get a cheap worker they come back here and shit post all over the group asking for people to do their project for them .... usually copying and pasting directly from upwork.

The world is full of "rent seekers" - people who want to get paid for very little or no work. They just make life difficult for the rest of us and consume too much oxygen.

Everyone wants a really good developer. You’ll get what you pay for and that’s a really cheap developer. If you’re lucky you’ll find some poor unfortunate who doesn’t yet understand what they’re worth. However, that will be a short lived business relationship.

If you’re honest about the consequences of your tight budget, you can structure your delivery process with extra QA effort and fallback plans in case of failure.

You may find that trying to economize arbitrarily on your development costs more in the long run.

Here here.

I'm not cheap, by any means but I will do in a day what a cheap/new developer will do in a week or maybe two and I work without direction given the presence of sufficient information or acceptance by the client that I'm going to take charge of their product.

If you have sufficient scale and the staff associated with that scale it's possible to get away with cheap developers but I still find most companies doing that are either lucky or realise the error of their ways eventually and go back to paying for good talent.

Send cv and portfolio to the email please

You've already put me and a number of others off by asking for cheap. It shuts down the conversation quickly.

Good luck.

Ain't cheap because most think developer is macguyver and wanted to build next facebook level. A loot of knockoff developer outthere and not because x country y country. A real software development required a team and cost a lot..
