Why choose IRPR as your backend app development company
We ship production-ready backends with predictable timelines and fixed prices.
IRPR has built over 200 backend systems for clients in 50 countries. Our senior engineers work on Node.js, Python, Go, and Rust. Every project includes automated CI/CD pipelines, Sentry error tracking, and Datadog monitoring from day one.
We start every engagement with a 2-week Roadmap phase. During Roadmap we produce a detailed technical specification and a fixed price quote. No hourly billing. No scope creep. The quote covers the entire build, including deployment and documentation.
Generic dev shops vs IRPR for backend development
Most agencies treat backend as an afterthought. We treat it as the foundation.
Generic dev shops often assign junior engineers to backend work. They use boilerplate code, skip testing, and deliver undocumented APIs. When something breaks, you wait days for a fix.
IRPR assigns senior engineers who own the full stack from database to deployment. Every API ships with integration tests, auto-generated docs, and a runbook. We monitor all production systems with PagerDuty alerts and 15-minute response SLAs.
- Junior engineers with 1-2 years experience
- No fixed price, hourly billing only
- APIs without documentation
- No monitoring or alerting setup
- Manual deployments via FTP
- No security audit or compliance review
- Senior engineers with 7+ years experience
- Fixed price quote in week 2
- Auto-generated OpenAPI docs
- Datadog monitoring + PagerDuty alerts
- CI/CD pipeline on GitHub Actions
- HIPAA / PCI-DSS / SOC 2 compliance
Our backend development process
We follow a structured 4-phase process that guarantees delivery on time and on budget.
Every backend project at IRPR starts with a 2-week Roadmap phase. During Roadmap we define the data model, API endpoints, deployment architecture, and compliance requirements. You get a detailed spec and a fixed price quote.
After Roadmap, we move into Product phase (6-8 weeks) where we build and test the backend. Release phase includes deployment to production, documentation handoff, and a 30-day warranty period. Total timeline is 8-12 weeks from start to launch.
What ships with every backend project
Every backend we build includes these deliverables by default.
Our backend projects are not black boxes. You get full source code, infrastructure scripts, and operational runbooks. Everything is documented and tested.
We set up monitoring and alerting so you can sleep at night. If a service goes down, we get paged first. You get a 30-day warranty with every project.
- Source code in your private GitHub repo
- CI/CD pipeline on GitHub Actions
- Sentry error tracking
- Datadog monitoring and dashboards
- PagerDuty alerting with 15-min response SLA
- OpenAPI / Swagger documentation
- Postman collection for all endpoints
