Azure was affected by this already - small compute quota increases tickets I had opened last year took months to resolve, and they also took away ability to provision postgres in eastus entirely (we are under quota limit).
I'll echo what the others say - if you think the path is clear (but you should think twice about that, of course), then don't be intimidated. A long time ago I participated in a negotiation/scoping on a big project, and while most of the people on the other side were a VP of some sort, in the end all but one turned out to be basically senior devs and their managers.
If you are talking about hiring software developers, it is easy enough.
B2B contract, the person you wish to hire has to fill out and give you W8-BEN-E which you will give to your accountant to forward to IRS. Payments are easily facilitated via a company specialising in this, e.g. Deel or Veem. Contractors figure out and pay their taxes themselves. I myself am currently employed in such manner.
