Discuss asynchronous failures, API validation, dependency security and graceful shutdown. Ask how they would investigate a slow or failing integration. ### What does vetted mean? Our engineers review each person's work history and technical fit for your need before proposing them. You see their experience, skills and why we picked them before you decide. ### Can I mix both options? Yes. You choose per person, so one person can join you directly while another works under SDK's contract. ## What to put in your brief A rough idea is enough to start. These details help us send the right people. - For example: a senior React developer, or a backend and a DevOps engineer. - Discuss asynchronous failures, API validation, dependency security and graceful shutdown.

Choose a person when you can direct the assignment. Choose a project when you need an agreed result owned by SDK.
