We build backend systems that handle millions of requests. Your MVP ships in 8-12 weeks with a fixed price.
IRPR is an experienced backend development company that builds production-grade server systems. We use Node.js, Python, Go, and Rust for APIs, microservices, and data pipelines. Every project runs on AWS, GCP, or Azure with Docker and Kubernetes.
Your backend ships in 8-12 weeks with a fixed price between $80,000 and $250,000. We handle compliance for HIPAA, PCI-DSS, SOC 2, and FERPA. You get source code, CI/CD pipelines, and monitoring dashboards.
We work with CTOs who need a scalable backend for their SaaS product, founders launching a fintech platform that must pass PCI-DSS audits, healthcare IT directors building HIPAA-compliant APIs, and ecommerce owners migrating from Shopify to a custom headless backend.

Why choose an experienced backend development company
An experienced backend team reduces risk and speeds up delivery.
IRPR has shipped 200+ backend systems across 50+ countries. Our engineers average 10+ years of experience with Node.js, Python, Go, and Rust. We have built systems that handle 10,000 requests per second for fintech platforms and 99.9% uptime for healthcare APIs.
Every backend project starts with a 2-week Roadmap phase where we define the architecture, data model, and API contracts. You get a fixed price and a timeline before any code is written. No surprises, no scope creep.
How IRPR differs from other backend development agencies
Most agencies overpromise and underdeliver. IRPR does the opposite.
Generic development shops often assign junior developers to your project and bill by the hour. They change scope mid-project and deliver late. You end up with a backend that does not scale and code you cannot maintain.
IRPR assigns senior engineers only. We work on a fixed price, not hourly. We deliver source code you own, CI/CD pipelines, and monitoring dashboards. Our Roadmap phase locks scope and price before we write a line of code.
- Junior developers on your project
- Hourly billing with no cap
- Scope changes mid-project
- No architecture review
- No CI/CD pipelines
- Code ownership unclear
- Senior engineers only (10+ years avg)
- Fixed price from Roadmap phase
- Scope locked in week 2
- Architecture defined before coding
- CI/CD with GitHub Actions and Sentry
- Full source code ownership
Our backend development process
We follow a 4-phase process that delivers a production-ready backend.
Every project follows the same framework: Idea, Roadmap, Product, Release. This structure works for startups and enterprises alike. We have used it for 200+ projects across fintech, healthcare, and SaaS.
The Roadmap phase is key. In week 2, we deliver a detailed plan with architecture diagrams, data models, API specs, a fixed price, and a timeline. You approve before we write code.
What ships with your backend
You get more than just code. Every backend project includes these deliverables.
When you hire IRPR as your experienced backend development company, you receive a complete production system. We do not hand over a half-finished API and walk away.
Every project includes source code in your GitHub repository, CI/CD pipelines, monitoring dashboards, API documentation, and deployment scripts. You can deploy, modify, and scale the system without us.
- Source code in your private GitHub repo
- CI/CD pipeline with GitHub Actions
- Dockerized microservices with docker-compose
- API documentation with OpenAPI/Swagger
- Postman collection for testing
- Sentry error tracking and performance monitoring
- Datadog or CloudWatch dashboards
- Database schema and migration scripts
- Infrastructure as code (Terraform or CloudFormation)
- 30-day post-launch support and bug fixes

Senior engineers only
Every engineer at IRPR has 10+ years of experience. We do not staff juniors on your project. Your backend is built by people who have shipped production systems at scale.

You get a fixed price after the 2-week Roadmap phase. No hourly billing, no surprise invoices, no scope creep charges. The price you see is the price you pay.
8-12 week MVPs
Your first production backend ships in 8-12 weeks. We have delivered 200+ projects on this timeline. Fast enough for startups, reliable enough for enterprises.
Full code ownership
You own all source code, documentation, and infrastructure scripts. There is no vendor lock-in. You can take the code and run it yourself.
Compliance built in
We build backends that pass HIPAA, PCI-DSS, SOC 2, and FERPA audits. Our engineers know the compliance requirements for healthcare, fintech, and education.
Post-launch support included
Every project includes 30 days of post-launch support. We fix bugs, answer questions, and help with deployments. You are not left alone after launch.
