Expert Node.js Backend Development StudioBackend Development
We build production-grade Node.js backends that handle millions of requests. 12-week MVPs with fixed pricing and senior engineers only.
IRPR is an expert node.js backend development studio that builds scalable server-side applications using Node.js, TypeScript, PostgreSQL, Redis, and AWS. We design REST and GraphQL APIs, microservices, and event-driven architectures for high-traffic products.
Our typical backend project ships in 12 weeks with a fixed price of $80K-$250K. We handle everything from database schema design to CI/CD pipelines, with compliance for HIPAA, PCI-DSS, and SOC 2.
CTOs hire us when their in-house team lacks senior Node.js talent. Startup founders hire us to build their SaaS MVP backend. Enterprise architects hire us to modernize legacy Node.js codebases.
Types of software we ship.
REST API Development
Build stateless REST APIs with Express.js or Fastify, JWT auth, rate limiting, and OpenAPI documentation.
GraphQL Backend
Develop GraphQL APIs with Apollo Server, schema stitching, and real-time subscriptions for complex data queries.
Microservices Architecture
Design decoupled microservices with Node.js, Docker, Kubernetes, and message brokers like RabbitMQ or Kafka.
Real-Time Backend
Build real-time features using Socket.io, WebSockets, and Redis pub/sub for chat, live dashboards, and notifications.
Serverless Backend
Create serverless backends with AWS Lambda, API Gateway, and DynamoDB for auto-scaling, pay-per-use architectures.
Database Design & Optimization
Design normalized schemas in PostgreSQL, implement indexing, query optimization, and connection pooling for high throughput.
Authentication & Authorization
Implement OAuth 2.0, SAML, or custom JWT flows with Passport.js, Auth0, or Keycloak for secure user access.
Backend for Mobile Apps
Develop Node.js backends for iOS and Android apps with Firebase Cloud Messaging, push notifications, and offline sync.
We build for every business type.

Why Choose an Expert Node.js Backend Development Studio
Building a production backend requires more than writing routes. It needs architecture decisions that scale.
IRPR has shipped 200+ Node.js backends across 50+ countries. Our engineers have built APIs handling 10,000 requests per second for fintech and healthcare clients. We use TypeScript for type safety, PostgreSQL for relational data, and Redis for caching.
Every backend ships with automated tests (Jest, Supertest), CI/CD via GitHub Actions, and monitoring with Sentry and Datadog. We enforce code reviews and pair programming on all critical paths.
How IRPR Differs from Other Node.js Shops
Most agencies bill by the hour and deliver late. IRPR gives fixed price and ships on time.
We have seen projects from other shops that had no tests, no monitoring, and no documentation. Those backends break in production and cost 3x to fix. IRPR builds backends that stay up.
Our engineers average 10+ years of experience. We do not hire juniors. Every line of code is reviewed by a senior. We ship a fully documented backend with a postman collection and a runbook.
- Hourly billing with no cap
- Juniors writing production code
- No automated tests
- No CI/CD pipeline
- No monitoring or alerting
- No documentation or runbook
- Fixed price from Roadmap phase
- Senior engineers only (10+ yrs avg)
- 100% test coverage on critical paths
- CI/CD with GitHub Actions on day 1
- Sentry + Datadog monitoring included
- Full API docs and runbook delivered
Our Node.js Backend Development Process
We follow a 4-phase process from idea to production release.
Every project starts with a 2-week Roadmap phase where we define the architecture, data model, and API contracts. You get a fixed price quote and a timeline before any code is written.
After Roadmap, we build the backend in 8-12 weeks, shipping in 2-week sprints. You see working endpoints every sprint. The final phase is deployment and a 30-day warranty.
What Ships with Every Node.js Backend
Every project includes these deliverables by default.
You own everything. Source code, database migrations, CI/CD pipelines, and monitoring dashboards. No black boxes, no monthly licensing fees.
We also include a 30-minute walkthrough call for your engineering team. We answer questions about the architecture and how to extend it.
- Source code in your private GitHub repo
- CI/CD pipeline with GitHub Actions
- PostgreSQL schema with migrations
- REST or GraphQL API with documentation
- Authentication (JWT, OAuth 2.0, or SAML)
- Sentry error tracking
- Datadog monitoring dashboard
- Load test results (k6 or Artillery)
- Postman collection for all endpoints
- Deployment runbook
What we ship in this practice.
SaaS Subscription Backend
Built a multi-tenant Node.js backend with Stripe billing, user roles, and usage tracking. Reduced billing errors by 90%. Tech stack: Node.js, TypeScript, PostgreSQL, Stripe, Redis.
Real-Time Chat API
Developed a WebSocket-based chat backend for a social platform handling 50,000 concurrent connections. Message delivery latency under 100ms. Tech stack: Node.js, Socket.io, Redis, MongoDB.
Healthcare Data Pipeline
Created a HIPAA-compliant backend that ingests EHR data from 3 hospitals and normalizes it into FHIR format. Processed 1 million records daily. Tech stack: Node.js, PostgreSQL, AWS S3, FHIR.
Ecommerce Order Service
Built a microservice for order management that integrates with Shopify, Stripe, and ShipStation. Cut order processing time from 5 minutes to 30 seconds. Tech stack: Node.js, Express, PostgreSQL, RabbitMQ.
Fintech Payment Gateway
Developed a PCI-DSS compliant payment processing backend that routes transactions through multiple acquirers. Handled $10M in monthly volume. Tech stack: Node.js, TypeScript, PostgreSQL, AWS KMS.
Real Estate MLS API
Created a REST API that aggregates MLS data from 5 sources and serves it to a React frontend. Reduced data refresh time from 24 hours to 15 minutes. Tech stack: Node.js, PostgreSQL, Redis, Elasticsearch.
