Enterprise Node Development Cost: What You Actually PayDevelopment Cost
We build enterprise Node.js apps for $80K-$250K fixed price. 12-week delivery with a senior team.
IRPR builds enterprise Node.js applications using Express, NestJS, TypeScript, PostgreSQL, and AWS infrastructure. We focus on high-performance backends that handle thousands of concurrent requests per second.
A typical enterprise Node project ships in 8-12 weeks for a fixed price between $80K and $250K. Every project includes compliance readiness for SOC 2, HIPAA, or PCI-DSS when required.
Clients include CTOs who need a predictable budget, product managers scaling a legacy system, engineering directors looking for a reliable outsourcing partner, and startups targeting enterprise customers.

Why Enterprise Node Development Cost Varies
Cost depends on scope, compliance level, and team quality. Here is what we have delivered.
IRPR has shipped over 200 enterprise Node products across 50 countries. Our average project runs 12 weeks and costs $80K to $250K, fixed price agreed at the roadmap stage.
Compliance adds 10-15% to the cost but is built into the architecture. For example, a HIPAA-compliant Node backend requires audit logging, encryption at rest, and BAA agreements with AWS.
The Difference Between IRPR and a Generic Dev Shop
You want to know what you are paying for. Here is how IRPR compares.
Many agencies quote hourly rates and change scope. IRPR gives you a fixed price after a 1-week Roadmap phase.
We use only senior Node engineers (average 10 years experience) and include compliance as a default process, not an extra cost.
- Hourly billing with no cap
- Offshore team with timezone delays
- No compliance documentation
- Weekly updates via email
- Code ownership unclear
- No post-launch support
- Fixed price after 2-week Roadmap
- Senior US-based engineers only
- Built-in SOC 2, HIPAA, PCI-DSS readiness
- Daily standups via Slack
- You own all code and IP
- 3 months monitoring and fixes included
How We Deliver Enterprise Node Projects
Our process ensures predictable cost and timeline from day one.
We start with a 2-week discovery and roadmap phase. You get a fixed price proposal and a detailed product specification before any build commences.
During the 8-12 week build phase, we run 2-week sprints with demoable increments. You see progress every sprint.
What Ships With Every Enterprise Node Project
Every deliverable is production-ready and fully owned by you.
Our projects include everything needed to operate at enterprise scale. You do not need to hire additional DevOps after we finish.
All code is delivered in your private GitHub repositories with CI/CD pipelines ready.
- Source code in your GitHub repo
- CI/CD pipeline using GitHub Actions
- Docker containers with Docker Compose
- AWS deployment (EC2, Lambda, or ECS)
- Sentry error tracking configured
- Datadog monitoring dashboards
- Swagger API documentation
- Jest unit tests with 90%+ coverage
- Load test results from k6
- Admin dashboard with user management
What we ship in this practice.
Payment processing API for a fintech startup
Built a Node.js API handling 5,000 transactions/sec using Stripe Connect and AWS Lambda. Reduced latency by 300ms. Stack: Node.js, TypeScript, DynamoDB.
Telehealth platform with live video
Developed a WebRTC-based telemedicine backend using Node.js, Socket.IO, and PostgreSQL. Handled 10,000 concurrent connections with <200ms delay.
B2B SaaS analytics dashboard
Created a real-time reporting server in Node.js with Redis caching. Report generation time dropped 40%. Stack: NestJS, React, PostgreSQL.
E-commerce checkout for a fashion brand
Built a checkout microservice using Node.js and Stripe. Achieved 99.99% uptime during Black Friday. Stack: Express, Redis, Cloudflare.
Logistics tracking system with live maps
Designed an MQTT ingestion pipeline in Node.js for 100,000 shipments per day. Real-time location streaming via WebSocket. Stack: Node.js, MongoDB, Kafka.
Internal compliance tool for a bank
Automated SOC 2 evidence collection with a Node.js backend that gathers logs, access reports, and config snapshots. Stack: Node.js, React, AWS Config.
Why teams hire us.
Fixed price, not hourly billing
Every project gets a fixed quote after the 2-week Roadmap phase. No hourly rates, no surprise invoices, no scope creep charges.
Senior Node engineers only
Our team averages 10 years of Node.js experience. Every engineer has shipped at least 5 enterprise products and understands performance optimization.
Compliance built into every project
We start with SOC 2 controls as default and add HIPAA or PCI-DSS when needed. No retrofitting or costly rewrites later.
Ship in 12 weeks, not 12 months
Pre-built Node microservice templates and CI/CD pipelines allow us to deliver a production backend in 8-12 weeks. Time to value is fast.
Full code ownership with no lock-in
All source code, documentation, and infrastructure scripts belong to you. You can take over or hire any developer after we finish.
3 months of post-launch support
After deployment we monitor uptime, fix bugs, and train your team for 3 months. No separate maintenance contract needed.
Idea → Roadmap → Product → Release.
Every engagement runs through the same four-stage pipeline. Predictable by design.
