IRPR vs generic dev shops for backend consulting
We are not a body shop. We are senior engineers who own the outcome.
Generic dev shops assign junior developers to your backend project. They bill hourly and change requirements often. You end up with technical debt and missed deadlines.
IRPR assigns senior engineers only. We provide a fixed price after the Roadmap phase. We build modular, maintainable systems with full documentation and automated testing.
- Junior developers with limited experience
- Hourly billing with no budget cap
- Monolithic code with no testing
- No CI/CD or automated deployment
- Zero documentation after handoff
- Scope creep without change orders
- Senior engineers with 10+ years experience
- Fixed price from Roadmap phase
- Modular microservices with 90%+ test coverage
- CI/CD pipeline on GitHub Actions
- Full API documentation and architecture docs
- Scope managed within sprint cycles
How we build backend systems step by step
Our process delivers predictability and quality.
We follow a fixed 4-phase process: Idea, Roadmap, Product, Release. Each phase has clear deliverables and approval gates.
You see progress every week. No surprises, no delays.
What you get when you hire IRPR backend consultants
Every project ships with these deliverables as standard.
We include everything you need to run and maintain your backend.
- Source code in your private GitHub repo
- CI/CD pipeline with GitHub Actions
- PostgreSQL or MongoDB database with schema migrations
- API documentation (OpenAPI / Swagger)
- Dockerized services with Docker Compose
- Sentry error tracking and Datadog performance monitoring
- Architecture decision records (ADRs) for every major decision
- Load testing results with k6
- Security audit report (OWASP top 10 scan)
- 30-day post-release warranty with bug fixes
