Stop looking to hire for experienced developers as they are harder to find and it's super expensive. I remember listening to the Starting Greatness podcast in the interview of Keith Rabois" .

You should look for those that are undiscovered talent in being scrappy, ambitious, resourceful, relentless, tenacious, enterprising with a focus to get things done though your own network to assess and find these talents. Despite the obstacles that is there especially in the early stage startup to build a team.
