Why IRPR delivers the best Node.js backend development services
We have shipped 200+ Node.js backends for clients in 50+ countries, with 98% on-time delivery and a fixed price guarantee.
Our backend development process starts with a two-week Roadmap phase where we define endpoints, data models, and infrastructure. You get a fixed quote before any code is written.
We use Node.js 20, Express 4, TypeScript 5, PostgreSQL 16, Redis 7, and Docker. Every backend includes automated testing with Jest, CI/CD via GitHub Actions, and Sentry error monitoring.
How IRPR is different from generic dev shops
Most agencies give you hourly rates, junior engineers, and vague timelines. IRPR gives you senior engineers, fixed prices, and predictable delivery.
A typical dev shop might charge $150/hour and take 6 months to ship a Node.js backend. They reuse boilerplate code and give you a black-box deployment.
IRPR assigns a lead architect with 10+ years of Node.js experience. You get full source code, a documented API, and a CI/CD pipeline. We ship in 8-12 weeks for a fixed price of $80K-$250K.
- Hourly billing with no cap
- Junior or offshore engineers
- Vague scope and timeline
- No code ownership guarantee
- No compliance standards (HIPAA, PCI)
- Black-box deployment
- Fixed price quoted in week 2
- Senior engineers with 10+ years
- 8-12 week delivery with milestones
- Full source code in your repo
- SOC 2, HIPAA, PCI-DSS compliance
- CI/CD on GitHub Actions + Sentry
Our Node.js backend development process
From idea to production, we follow four phases that keep your project on track and within budget.
Phase 1 (Idea): We define your API endpoints, data models, and third-party integrations. Deliverable: a detailed API specification.
Phase 2 (Roadmap): We produce a fixed-price proposal and a 12-week timeline. You approve before any coding starts.
Phase 3 (Product): Senior engineers build the backend using Node.js, Express, PostgreSQL, and Redis. We run automated tests and deploy to staging.
Phase 4 (Release): We deploy to production on AWS or GCP, set up monitoring with Sentry, and hand over the full codebase. You own everything.
