Yes, it sounds like you might need to file, but it depends on your total self-employed expenses. If you have net income from self-employed work (this includes being an Independent Contractor) of $400 or more, then you're required to file. Net income means total business income minus business expenses.
Otherwise, the general filing requirements are based on gross income. You can read more about the requirements to file here: https://ttlc.intuit.com/replies/3302274
