Why Choose an Affordable Scalable Backend Development Firm
IRPR delivers production backends that scale from day one without enterprise pricing.
Most backend development firms charge $200-$300 per hour and deliver after 6 months. IRPR charges a fixed price between $80K and $250K and ships in 8-12 weeks. Our senior engineers have built backends for 200+ products across 50 countries.
We use proven stacks like Node.js, PostgreSQL, Redis, and Kubernetes. Every project includes auto-scaling, monitoring with Datadog, and error tracking with Sentry. Your backend handles traffic spikes without manual intervention.
Generic Dev Shop vs IRPR
Not all backend firms deliver scalable systems at an affordable price. Here is the difference.
Generic dev shops often use hourly billing and over-engineer solutions. They build monolithic backends that cost 3x more to maintain. Their junior engineers lack experience with distributed systems.
IRPR builds scalable backends with fixed pricing. Our senior engineers have shipped 200+ products. We use battle-tested patterns like event sourcing, CQRS, and circuit breakers.
- Hourly billing with no cap
- Junior engineers learning on your project
- Monolithic architecture that fails at scale
- No CI/CD or monitoring included
- 6-12 month delivery timelines
- No compliance expertise (HIPAA, PCI-DSS)
- Fixed price from $80K to $250K
- Senior engineers with 10+ years experience
- Microservices or serverless architecture
- CI/CD pipeline and Datadog monitoring included
- 8-12 week delivery
- HIPAA, PCI-DSS, and SOC 2 compliance built-in
Our Backend Development Process
We follow a proven 4-phase process to deliver your scalable backend on time and on budget.
Every project starts with a Roadmap phase where we define the architecture, data model, and API contracts. You get a fixed price and timeline before any code is written.
We build in 2-week sprints with continuous deployment. You see working software every sprint. UAT and load testing happen in the final phase.
What Ships with Your Backend
Every backend project includes these deliverables by default. No hidden costs.
You own everything. Source code, infrastructure-as-code, CI/CD pipelines, and monitoring dashboards are all yours. We provide documentation and a 30-day support period.
No licensing fees. No ongoing royalties. Just a production-ready backend that scales.
- Source code in your private GitHub or GitLab repo
- CI/CD pipeline on GitHub Actions or GitLab CI
- Dockerized services with docker-compose
- Kubernetes manifests for production deployment
- Database schema migrations and seed data
- API documentation with Swagger or Postman
- Monitoring dashboard on Datadog with alerts
- Error tracking with Sentry
- Load test results with k6
- Architecture diagram and deployment runbook
