Common Problems with DevOps Freelance Engineers
1. Finding the Right Talent
Searching for a DevOps freelance engineer can feel like hunting for a needle in a haystack. While platforms like Upwork offer countless profiles, filtering the right fit for your specific needs, whether it’s Kubernetes, Amazon Web Services, or Terraform, is tough. Most freelancers aren’t equipped to align perfectly with your project goals, making the hiring process exhausting and time-consuming.
2. Managing Freelancers
If you don’t have a structured system in place, you often end up wasting time on back-and-forth emails and scheduling conflicts. Traditional tools fail to create the level of organization needed, leaving you frustrated and the project disorganized.
3. Lack of Availability
One of the biggest downsides is their unpredictable availability. Freelancers work on multiple projects, and when you need them most, they might be unavailable. Your project doesn’t pause for their schedule, but unfortunately, freelancers often do.
4. Communication Gaps
Freelancers may be skilled in automation and software development, but communication can break your project. Misunderstandings, delays in responses, and unaligned expectations lead to critical issues. For something as collaborative as DevOps, clear communication is non-negotiable.
5. Project Management is Tough
Applying ordinary approaches of a work management that are the e-mails and spreadsheets for a freelancer is not a piece of cake. Tasking, scheduling, achieving goals, quality assurance, and on-time delivery are very challenging if you do not use appropriate project management tools.
6. Missed Deadlines
Deadlines are sacred, but with freelancers handling multiple projects, delays are inevitable. Even the most skilled freelancers struggle to juggle tasks, making them miss crucial delivery dates.
