I have a custom-built client dashboard / website currently live on a VPS (DigitalOcean). The previous developer has gone unresponsive. I have full access to the VPS, domain, and Cloudflare, but need a developer to take over ongoing development and maintenance.
This is not a from-scratch build. The priority is continuity: understand what's there, stabilize it, then keep building.
Scope of Work
-Audit the codebase and database (stack: [confirm once on server — e.g. Node.js/React/PostgreSQL])
-Identify any broken, incomplete functionality
-Set up proper version control if not already in place (push to a private repo I own)
-Fix any outstanding bugs/issues
-Take over ongoing feature development going forward
Requirements
experience reading and inheriting other developers' code (not just greenfield builds)
Comfortable working directly on a VPS (SSH, deployment, process management — PM2/systemd/Docker)
Deliverables (first 2 weeks)
Codebase audit (what exists, what's broken, what's missing)
Code pushed to a repo under my ownership
deployment process
Recommendation on what to fix vs. rebuild
