Affordable Custom Backend Development PartnerCustom Backend
We are an affordable custom backend development partner for serious founders. Ship your MVP in 8-12 weeks with full source code ownership.
IRPR builds backend systems for web and mobile applications that need to scale. We use Node.js, Python, Go, and Rust with PostgreSQL, Redis, and AWS infrastructure to deliver production-ready APIs, databases, and microservices.
Every project ships in 8-12 weeks with a fixed price starting at $50K. We handle compliance for HIPAA, PCI-DSS, and SOC 2 environments, including audit-ready documentation.
Startup CTOs hire us to build their MVP without hiring a full team. Enterprise VP Engineers bring us in for mission-critical backend modules. Product managers use us to accelerate roadmap delivery without quality compromises.
Types of software we ship.
REST API Development
We build RESTful APIs with Express, Fastify, or Django. Each endpoint is documented with Swagger and tested for edge cases.
GraphQL API Development
Apollo Server with TypeScript and Prisma for type-safe data access. We handle resolvers, subscriptions, and real-time data.
Microservices Architecture
Dockerized services with Kubernetes orchestration. Each service has its own database (PostgreSQL, MongoDB) and message queue (RabbitMQ, SQS).
Database Schema Design
Normalized and indexed schemas for PostgreSQL or MySQL. We design for read-heavy or write-heavy workloads with migrations in Flyway.
Authentication & Authorization
OAuth2, JWT, and SAML integration with Auth0 or Okta. Role-based access control with fine-grained permissions.
Payment Integration Backend
Stripe, Braintree, or Adyen API integration with webhooks and idempotency keys. Recurring billing and invoice generation.
Real-time Systems Backend
WebSocket servers with Socket.IO or SignalR. Used for chat, live feeds, and collaborative editing with conflict resolution.
Serverless Backend Functions
AWS Lambda or Google Cloud Functions with API Gateway. Cost-efficient scaling for event-driven workloads and async processing.
We build for every business type.
Startups and MVPs
SaaS platforms
Ecommerce backends
Fintech applications
Healthcare platforms
Our backend development track record
We have delivered 200+ backend systems with measurable results for clients in 50+ countries.
Every project starts with a detailed roadmap in week 2. We define APIs, database schema, and deployment architecture before writing a line of code.
Our clients see an average 40% reduction in time-to-market compared to hiring in-house teams. We ship production code, not prototypes.
Why choose IRPR as your backend partner?
Most dev shops over-promise and under-deliver. Here is how we are different.
Generic dev shops use junior developers working on hourly rates. They change requirements without documentation and deliver code that is hard to maintain.
IRPR uses senior engineers only, with fixed pricing and a clear roadmap. We deliver production-ready backend code with CI/CD, monitoring, and documentation included.
- Hourly billing with no cap
- Junior or offshore devs
- No roadmap before coding
- Unclear ownership of code
- No CI/CD or monitoring setup
- No compliance support (HIPAA, PCI)
- Fixed price from the roadmap phase
- Senior engineers with 10+ years experience
- Detailed roadmap with API spec before code
- Full source code ownership
- CI/CD pipeline with Sentry, PagerDuty, Datadog
- HIPAA/PCI compliance built in
Our backend development process
We follow a four-phase process to ensure clarity and quality.
Idea: We start with a discovery call to understand your business goals, technical requirements, and constraints. We identify which backend components are needed (API, database, integrations).
Roadmap: In week 1-2, we produce a detailed roadmap with API endpoints, database schema, deployment architecture, and a fixed price quote. You approve before we code.
What ships with your backend
Every project includes these deliverables by default.
We do not just hand over code. You get a fully operational backend system with all the infrastructure and tooling needed to run it in production.
- Source code in your private GitHub repo
- CI/CD pipeline with GitHub Actions
- API documentation with Swagger/OpenAPI
- PostgreSQL or MongoDB database schema with migrations
- Sentry error tracking and performance monitoring
- Datadog dashboards for API latency and error rates
- Load testing results using k6 or Artillery
- Docker containers for local development
- Deployment scripts for AWS or GCP
- Post-project 30-day support SLA
What we ship in this practice.
REST API for a Fintech Startup
Built a PCI-compliant payment API using Node.js, Express, and Stripe. Reduced time to first transaction from 6 months to 10 weeks.
GraphQL Backend for a SaaS Platform
Designed a multi-tenant GraphQL API with Apollo Server, Prisma, and PostgreSQL. Handled 10,000+ requests/minute with 99.9% uptime.
Real-time Chat Backend for EdTech
Built WebSocket server with Socket.IO and Redis for live messaging. Supported 50,000 concurrent users with less than 50ms latency.
Serverless Backend for Ecommerce
Implemented AWS Lambda and API Gateway for product search and checkout. Reduced server costs by 60% compared to EC2-based setup.
Healthcare API for Patient Portal
Developed HIPAA-compliant APIs with Django REST Framework and PostgreSQL. Enabled secure patient data access for 3 healthcare providers.
Microservices Migration for Logistics
Refactored monolithic backend into 12 microservices with Kafka and Kubernetes. Cut deployment time from 2 hours to 5 minutes.
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.
Senior engineers only
We hire for 10+ years of experience in backend systems. No junior or offshore developers work on your project.
Full code ownership
You own every line of code and all intellectual property. We transfer the complete repository when the project ships.
Production-ready infrastructure
We set up CI/CD, monitoring (Sentry, Datadog), and error logging. Your backend is ready for production from day one.
Compliance built in
We build to HIPAA, PCI-DSS, and SOC 2 standards. Documentation and audit trails are included for your compliance team.
8-12 week delivery
We ship a fully functional backend in 8-12 weeks. Our process is designed for speed without cutting corners on testing or documentation.
Idea → Roadmap → Product → Release.
Every engagement runs through the same four-stage pipeline. Predictable by design.
