Avoid anybody who doesn't have the required licenses to do the work.
You are asking for engineering work and, at least in the USA, that
requires a state issued professional engineering license. Any
disagreements that may arise that lead to litigation can run into
serious problems if the other party doesn't have the proper license.
I suspect the same kind of rules apply in other than USA
jurisdictions.
Contrary to popular belief, calling oneself a "consultant" doesn't
eliminate the licensing requirement for engineering work.
Also, contrary to popular belief, there are electronic engineers who
have the proper licenses and are available for such work.
And finally, I trust the backlash of irate folks who think the
licensing requirement is BS and are more than willing to break the law
is miinimal...
There are no 'licences' for EEs in Europe. Either you can do the job or you
can't. A degree or equivalent is normally taken as a good sign but is by far a
universal sign of competence.
Funny that the USA prefers a more bureacratic approach.
