Expert Scalable Backend Development CompanyScalable Backend
We build backend systems that handle millions of requests. Node.js, Go, Python, and cloud-native from day one.
IRPR is an expert scalable backend development company that architects systems using Node.js, Go, Python, and cloud-native infrastructure on AWS, GCP, or Azure. We build RESTful APIs, GraphQL endpoints, event-driven microservices, and real-time data pipelines that scale horizontally from day one.
Every project ships in 8 to 12 weeks with a fixed price ranging from $80,000 to $250,000. We handle compliance for HIPAA, PCI-DSS, SOC 2, and FERPA. Our backend systems achieve 99.9% uptime and support millions of concurrent users.
CTOs who need a production-ready backend for their SaaS platform hire us. Founders building marketplace startups need an expert scalable backend development company to handle transaction volumes. Engineering directors at mid-market companies migrate from monolithic architectures to microservices with us.

Why you need an expert scalable backend development company
A well-architected backend is the difference between a product that breaks at 10,000 users and one that handles 10 million without a hiccup.
Most startups lose users because of slow APIs, frequent downtime, or inability to scale. An expert scalable backend development company like IRPR builds with horizontal scaling, load balancing, and caching from the start. We use tools like NGINX, Redis, and AWS Auto Scaling to keep response times under 200ms even under heavy load.
Our backend systems are designed for maintainability and observability. Every service ships with structured logging (ELK stack), metrics (Prometheus/Grafana), and distributed tracing (Jaeger). This means your team can debug production issues in minutes, not days.
Generic dev shops vs IRPR backend engineering
Not all development teams have the depth to build scalable backend systems. Here is what separates IRPR.
Generic dev shops often start with a monolithic approach using a single framework like Ruby on Rails or Django without planning for scale. They lack expertise in distributed systems, database sharding, and message queuing. This leads to expensive rewrites when traffic grows.
IRPR treats scalability as a requirement, not an afterthought. We design for fault tolerance from the architecture phase. Every service is independently deployable and monitored. Our engineers hold certifications in AWS, Kubernetes, and Google Cloud.
- Monolithic architecture from the start
- Single database without replication
- No caching layer or CDN setup
- Basic error logging with no monitoring
- Manual deployment process
- No load testing before launch
- Microservices or modular monolith designed for decoupling
- Database sharding, read replicas, and failover
- Redis caching and CloudFront CDN out of the box
- ELK stack, Prometheus, Grafana, Sentry in every project
- CI/CD pipeline with GitHub Actions and Terraform
- Load testing with k6 and Locust before production
Our 4-phase backend development process
Every backend project at IRPR follows a repeatable process that de-risks delivery and ensures quality.
We start with a 2-week Roadmap phase where we define the system architecture, API contracts, data model, and infrastructure needs. This gives you a fixed price and timeline before any code is written.
The Product phase is 6 to 10 weeks of iterative development. We ship a working backend incrementally, integrating your feedback every 2 weeks. The Release phase includes performance testing, security audit, and production deployment with a 30-day warranty.
What ships with every backend project
When you hire IRPR as your expert scalable backend development company, you get a production-ready system, not prototype code.
We believe in full ownership. Your team receives source code in your private GitHub repository, deployment pipelines, and infrastructure configurations. Nothing is locked behind proprietary tools.
Every backend includes automated tests (unit, integration, and e2e), API documentation (Postman or Swagger), and a runbook for on-call engineers. We also set up Sentry for error tracking and Logz.io or Datadog for log management.
- Source code in your private git repository
- CI/CD pipeline on GitHub Actions or GitLab CI
- Infrastructure as code with Terraform or Pulumi
- PostgreSQL or MongoDB database with automated backups
- Redis caching layer for frequently accessed data
- API Gateway with rate limiting and authentication (JWT/OAuth)
- Monitoring dashboard with Prometheus and Grafana
- Error tracking with Sentry and performance monitoring with New Relic
- Automated test suite with Jest, Pytest, or Go test
- Deployment runbook and architecture documentation
What we ship in this practice.
Real-time notification backend for a social platform
Built a WebSocket-based notification system using Node.js and Redis pub/sub that handles 50,000 concurrent connections. Reduced notification delivery latency from 5 seconds to under 100ms.
Payment processing microservices for a fintech startup
Architected an event-driven payment system with Go, PostgreSQL, and Kafka. Processed $2M in transactions monthly with 99.99% uptime and PCI-DSS compliance.
Healthcare data API for a telemedicine platform
Developed a HIPAA-compliant REST API in Python with FastAPI and encrypted data storage on AWS. Reduced patient data retrieval time by 60%.
Inventory management backend for an ecommerce brand
Created a real-time inventory sync system using GraphQL and PostgreSQL with Redis caching. Cut order processing errors by 90% across 10 warehouses.
IoT data pipeline for a manufacturing client
Deployed a Kinesis-to-S3 data pipeline processing 1 million sensor readings per minute. Enabled real-time quality monitoring and reduced defect rates by 15%.
Multi-tenant SaaS backend for a logistics platform
Designed a Go-based microservices architecture with Kubernetes orchestration and PostgreSQL sharding. Supported 500 concurrent tenants with sub-200ms API responses.
Why teams hire us.
Senior engineers only, no juniors
Every IRPR engineer has 8+ years of backend experience. We assign a lead architect with certifications in AWS Solutions Architect or Google Cloud Professional Data Engineer. You never pay for ramp-up time.
Fixed price, not hourly
You get a fixed quote after the Roadmap phase (week 2). No hourly billing, no surprise invoices, no scope creep charges. The price covers the full scope until production release.
98% on-time delivery
Across 200+ projects, we deliver on time for 98% of engagements. Our 2-week sprints and continuous integration mean you always know the status. If we miss a deadline, we communicate it before it happens.
Full code ownership
Every line of code belongs to you. There are no proprietary frameworks, no hidden fees, no monthly licensing. Your team can modify, extend, or deploy the code without any IRPR involvement.
Built to scale from day one
We design for 10x the traffic you expect. Our systems use horizontal scaling, database replication, and caching so you do not need a rewrite when your user base grows from 1,000 to 1 million.
Security and compliance baked in
We implement HIPAA, PCI-DSS, SOC 2, and FERPA controls as part of the architecture, not as an afterthought. Every API has rate limiting, input validation, and encryption at rest and in transit.
Idea → Roadmap → Product → Release.
Every engagement runs through the same four-stage pipeline. Predictable by design.
