Experienced Backend Web Development ServicesBackend Web
Senior engineers build your backend in 8-12 weeks. Fixed price, no surprises, full code ownership.
IRPR offers experienced backend web development services for companies that need reliable, scalable server-side systems. We use Node.js, Python, Go, and Java with PostgreSQL, MongoDB, or Redis to build APIs, microservices, and data pipelines.
Every project ships in 8-12 weeks with a fixed price between $80K and $250K. We handle compliance for HIPAA, PCI-DSS, and SOC 2. Source code goes into your repo on day one.
Founders hire us when they need a production-ready backend without a CTO. CTOs hire us to accelerate their roadmap. Product managers hire us to ship features their internal team cannot handle. Investors hire us to validate their technical architecture before a Series A.
Types of software we ship.

Why experienced backend web development services matter
A poorly built backend costs you customers, time, and money. Here is the data.
IRPR has shipped 200+ backend systems across 50+ countries. Our average project timeline is 12 weeks. We have maintained 99.9% uptime on production systems for the last 3 years.
Every backend we build handles at least 10,000 concurrent users from launch. Our clients see 40% fewer production incidents compared to their previous providers. We use automated CI/CD pipelines with GitHub Actions and Sentry error tracking.
The difference between generic dev shops and IRPR
Most agencies sell you hours. IRPR sells you a finished, production-ready backend.
Generic dev shops charge by the hour and treat your project as a learning exercise. They use junior developers, write untested code, and hand you a repo with no documentation.
IRPR assigns senior engineers only. We write unit tests, integration tests, and API documentation. You get a CI/CD pipeline, monitoring, and a post-launch support plan.
- Hourly billing with no cap
- Junior or mid-level developers
- No written test coverage
- No CI/CD pipeline
- No compliance documentation
- Handoff with minimal support
- Fixed price from Roadmap phase
- Senior engineers only (8+ years)
- Unit and integration tests included
- GitHub Actions CI/CD pipeline
- HIPAA, PCI-DSS, SOC 2 compliance docs
- 2 weeks of post-launch support
Our 4-phase approach to backend development
We follow a structured process that de-risks your investment and delivers a working product fast.
Phase 1 is the Idea phase where we align on scope, tech stack, and compliance needs. This takes 1 week and costs $0.
Phase 2 is the Roadmap phase where we produce a detailed technical specification, database schema, and API design. This takes 1-2 weeks and costs a fixed $5K. If you continue, the Roadmap cost is deducted from the project total.
What ships with every backend project
You own everything. No black boxes, no locked-in dependencies.
Every project delivers a complete, production-ready backend with all the tooling your team needs to maintain and extend it. We do not use proprietary frameworks or hide code.
Your team gets the same tools we use internally: automated testing, error tracking, and deployment pipelines. You can take over development at any point.
- Source code in your GitHub or GitLab repo
- CI/CD pipeline with GitHub Actions or GitLab CI
- Sentry error tracking and performance monitoring
- Docker Compose for local development
- API documentation with Swagger or Postman
- Unit and integration test suite (80%+ coverage)
- Database migration scripts
- Deployment runbook for AWS, GCP, or Azure
- Post-launch support for 2 weeks
What we ship in this practice.
Multi-tenant SaaS backend for a B2B analytics platform
Built a Node.js and PostgreSQL backend with row-level security for 200+ tenants. Reduced query time by 60% using Redis caching. Tech stack: Node.js, PostgreSQL, Redis, AWS ECS.
HIPAA-compliant API for a telemedicine app
Designed a FastAPI backend with FHIR-compliant endpoints and encrypted data storage. Passed HIPAA audit on first review. Tech stack: FastAPI, PostgreSQL, AWS KMS, Auth0.
Payment processing backend for a fintech startup
Integrated Stripe and Plaid for ACH and card payments. Achieved PCI-DSS Level 1 compliance. Processed $2M in transactions in the first month. Tech stack: Python, Django, Celery, Stripe, Plaid.
Inventory management backend for a 50-store retail chain
Built a Go microservice that syncs inventory across 50 locations in real time. Reduced stockouts by 35%. Tech stack: Go, PostgreSQL, RabbitMQ, Docker, Kubernetes.
Real-time data pipeline for a logistics company
Created a Kafka-based pipeline processing 10,000 GPS events per second. Cut delivery ETA errors from 15% to 2%. Tech stack: Kafka, Python, TimescaleDB, AWS Lambda.
Backend for a real estate MLS platform
Developed a GraphQL API that aggregates listings from 3 MLS providers. Reduced page load time from 4 seconds to 300ms. Tech stack: Node.js, Apollo Server, PostgreSQL, Redis, AWS CloudFront.
Why teams hire us.
Senior engineers only, no juniors
Every engineer on your project has 8+ years of backend experience. We do not staff juniors. Your code is written by people who have shipped at scale before.
Fixed price, not hourly
You get a fixed quote after the Roadmap phase (week 2). No hourly billing. No surprise invoices. The price covers the entire scope agreed in the spec.
Full code ownership from day one
Source code lives in your repository from the first commit. You own everything. No license fees, no lock-in, no proprietary frameworks.
Compliance built in, not bolted on
We build HIPAA, PCI-DSS, and SOC 2 compliance into the architecture from week 1. You do not need to retrofit security later.
12-week delivery guarantee
We ship production-ready backends in 8-12 weeks. Our on-time delivery rate is 98%. We do not take projects we cannot deliver on schedule.
Post-launch support included
Every project includes 2 weeks of post-launch support. We monitor errors, fix bugs, and hand over operations to your team. No cold handoffs.
Idea → Roadmap → Product → Release.
Every engagement runs through the same four-stage pipeline. Predictable by design.
