Hey - am starting up in stealth. Have limited to no tech understanding. The product I am building requires some basic tech. Any suggestions on how do I go about hiring / getting external help for the tech piece?

Use no code tools bro.

You can’t build a tech product without a tech co-founder. Build MVP —> Get someone onboard

Use excel, google sheets, Bubble etc. to create a simple barebones MVP with all major use cases and user flows. Then you can hire a freelancer to build it out for you.

Hire me

Based on your budget, try to create an MVP hiring engineer from Upwork. Then build on top of that may be.

Would be happy to help/guide you for free.
