Experienced Custom Backend Development TeamBackend Development
We build production-grade backend systems for SaaS, fintech, and healthcare. 8-12 week MVPs with fixed pricing and full code ownership.
IRPR is an experienced custom backend development team that builds backend systems for companies shipping SaaS platforms, fintech apps, and healthcare products. We use Node.js, Python, Go, PostgreSQL, Redis, and AWS to deliver APIs, microservices, and data pipelines that handle millions of requests per day.
Every project ships in 8-12 weeks with a fixed price between $80K and $250K. We handle compliance for HIPAA, PCI-DSS, and SOC 2. You get source code, CI/CD pipelines, and production monitoring from day one.
Founders hire us when they need a backend that scales without rewriting. CTOs hire us to replace offshore teams that missed deadlines. Product managers hire us to ship a backend MVP in 10 weeks while their in-house team focuses on frontend.

Why hire an experienced custom backend development team
A backend built by IRPR ships faster, costs less to maintain, and scales without rewrites.
Most backend projects fail because the team lacks experience with production systems. IRPR has shipped 200+ backend products across 50 countries. We know how to design APIs that handle 10K requests per second, databases that stay under 10ms query time, and deployments that hit 99.9% uptime.
We use a fixed-price model with a 2-week Roadmap phase. You know the exact cost and timeline before we write a line of code. No hourly billing, no scope creep, no surprise invoices. Every project includes CI/CD, monitoring, and documentation.
Generic dev shop vs IRPR
Not all backend teams deliver the same quality. Here is how IRPR differs from a generic development shop.
Generic dev shops often assign junior developers, use hourly billing, and deliver code that needs rewrites within 6 months. They skip testing, ignore security, and hand over a repo with no documentation.
IRPR assigns senior engineers only. Every developer has 8+ years of experience. We write unit tests, integration tests, and end-to-end tests. We set up CI/CD, error tracking with Sentry, and performance monitoring with Datadog. You get a production-ready system, not a prototype.
- Junior developers with 1-2 years experience
- Hourly billing with no cap
- No automated tests
- No CI/CD pipeline
- No monitoring or alerting
- Code ownership unclear
- Senior engineers with 8+ years experience
- Fixed price from Roadmap phase
- Unit, integration, and E2E tests
- CI/CD on GitHub Actions or GitLab CI
- Sentry error tracking + Datadog monitoring
- Full code ownership from day one
How we build your custom backend
Our process from idea to production takes 8-12 weeks and follows four phases.
We start with a 2-week Roadmap phase where we define the architecture, data model, API contracts, and deployment plan. You get a detailed document with wireframes, database schema, and a fixed price quote.
Then we build the backend in 6-10 weeks using agile sprints. You see progress every week through a live staging environment. After testing and security review, we deploy to production and hand over all code and documentation.
What ships with your backend
Every backend project includes these deliverables by default.
You get more than just code. We ship a complete production system with monitoring, documentation, and deployment pipelines. No hidden costs, no missing pieces.
- Source code in your private GitHub or GitLab repo
- CI/CD pipeline with GitHub Actions or GitLab CI
- Automated unit, integration, and E2E tests
- API documentation with Swagger or Postman
- Database schema and migration scripts
- Sentry error tracking and Datadog performance monitoring
- Docker containers and Kubernetes manifests
- Deployment runbook and architecture diagram
- Security audit report (OWASP top 10)
- Post-launch support for 30 days
What we ship in this practice.
Multi-tenant SaaS backend
Built a multi-tenant backend for a B2B SaaS platform using Node.js, PostgreSQL, and Redis. Each tenant gets isolated data with row-level security. The system handles 500 concurrent tenants and 10K API requests per minute. Reduced tenant onboarding time from 2 weeks to 2 hours.
HIPAA-compliant telehealth API
Designed a HIPAA-compliant backend for a telehealth startup using Python FastAPI, PostgreSQL with encryption at rest, and AWS HealthLake. Supports video call scheduling, EHR integration, and real-time chat. Passed HIPAA audit on first attempt. Handles 1,000 patient visits per day.
Payment processing microservices
Built a microservices architecture for a fintech company using Go, Kafka, and PostgreSQL. Services handle payment authorization, settlement, and reconciliation. PCI-DSS Level 1 compliant. Processes $50M in monthly transaction volume with 99.99% uptime.
Real-time inventory management API
Developed a real-time inventory backend for an ecommerce brand using Node.js, WebSockets, and Redis. Updates inventory across 3 warehouses in under 100ms. Reduced overselling incidents by 95%. Integrates with Shopify and Magento via custom APIs.
Data pipeline for analytics platform
Created a data pipeline for a media analytics company using Apache Airflow, Spark, and AWS S3. Ingests 5TB of raw data daily, transforms it into structured tables, and serves dashboards with sub-second query times. Reduced report generation time from 4 hours to 15 minutes.
ML model serving backend
Built a backend to serve machine learning models for a logistics company using Python, TensorFlow Serving, and Kubernetes. Handles 10K inference requests per second with 50ms latency. Reduced delivery route planning time by 40%.
Why teams hire us.
Fixed price, not hourly
Every project gets a fixed quote in the Roadmap phase (week 2). No hourly billing, no surprise invoices, no scope creep charges. You know the exact cost before we start building.
Senior engineers only
Every developer on your project has 8+ years of backend experience. No junior developers, no offshore teams, no handoffs. The same engineers who design the architecture write the code.
8-12 week MVPs
We ship production-ready backends in 8-12 weeks. Our average MVP timeline is 10 weeks. You get a working system, not a prototype.
Full code ownership
You own all source code, documentation, and infrastructure from day one. No licensing fees, no vendor lock-in, no restrictions. We transfer everything to your GitHub or GitLab repo.
Compliance built in
We build HIPAA, PCI-DSS, and SOC 2 compliant backends. Our engineers know the audit requirements and build them into the architecture from the start. No retrofitting compliance after launch.
Production monitoring included
Every backend ships with Sentry error tracking, Datadog performance monitoring, and PagerDuty alerting. We monitor uptime, latency, and error rates for 30 days post-launch.
Idea → Roadmap → Product → Release.
Every engagement runs through the same four-stage pipeline. Predictable by design.
