Why an affordable scalable backend development team
A dedicated backend team gives you speed, reliability, and compliance without paying enterprise overhead.
IRPR's backend teams have shipped 200+ products across 50 countries. We use Node.js, Python, Go, PostgreSQL, Redis, and AWS to build backends that scale from 1,000 to 1 million users without rewrites.
Our fixed pricing model means you know the cost before we start. No hourly billing, no surprise overages. You get a scalable backend in 8-12 weeks, fully tested and deployed.
The difference between IRPR and generic dev shops
Not all backend teams are equal. Here is what sets IRPR apart.
Many agencies use hourly billing, junior developers, and unclear ownership. IRPR does the opposite. We put senior engineers on every project, give you a fixed quote upfront, and you own the code.
Compliance is built in from day one. Our teams have delivered HIPAA, PCI-DSS, and SOC 2 backends for 30+ regulated projects. No last-minute security rework.
- hourly billing with no cap
- unclear project scope
- junior or mid-level developers
- unclear code ownership
- slow asynchronous communication
- no compliance knowledge
- fixed price after roadmap
- detailed scope of work in week 2
- senior engineers only (avg 10+ yrs)
- full source code ownership
- weekly updates with live demos
- HIPAA, PCI, SOC 2 ready
How we build your scalable backend in 4 phases
Our process eliminates risk and ensures your backend is production-ready on time.
We follow a proven 4-phase approach that starts with a discovery call and ends with a live deployment. Each phase has clear deliverables and a fixed timeline.
By week 12, you have a scalable backend in production with CI/CD pipelines, monitoring, and full documentation.
