Leading Scalable Backend Development PartnerDevelopment Partner
We ship production-ready backends that handle millions of requests. 12 weeks from idea to deployment with fixed pricing.
IRPR builds backends that scale. We use Go, Rust, Node.js, Python, and Kubernetes to design systems that handle 10,000+ requests per second. Every project starts with an architecture review to choose the right tech for your traffic patterns.
We deliver a working backend in 8 to 12 weeks. Prices range from $80K to $250K depending on complexity and compliance needs. Our fixed-price model means no surprises. We cover HIPAA, PCI-DSS, SOC 2, and FERPA compliance out of the box.
Startups scaling from seed to Series A hire us to rebuild their monolithic backend. SaaS companies need multi-tenant architectures that stay fast at 500k users. Healthcare platforms require HIPAA-compliant data pipelines. Fintech firms demand PCI-ready payment processing.

Why choose a leading scalable backend development partner
Building backend systems that handle millions of users without breaking requires deep expertise in distributed systems, database design, and cloud infrastructure.
IRPR has shipped over 200 backend systems across 50 countries. Our senior engineers average 12 years of experience each. We use a proven 4-phase process: Idea, Roadmap, Product, Release. The Roadmap phase (week 2) produces a fixed-price quote, so you know exactly what you pay.
Every backend we build includes automated load testing with k6, CI/CD pipelines on GitHub Actions, and monitoring with Datadog. We target 99.9% uptime from day one. For regulated industries, we incorporate HIPAA, PCI-DSS, or SOC 2 controls during the architecture design phase.
Generic dev shops vs IRPR: the difference
Most agencies bill hourly and leave you guessing on timeline and compliance. IRPR works differently from day one.
A generic dev shop might quote you 3-6 months with vague milestones. They often assign junior developers and ignore compliance until the audit. You pay for every hour, even learning time.
IRPR assigns senior engineers only (10+ years experience). We fix the price in the Roadmap phase (week 2) and guarantee 8-12 week delivery. Compliance (HIPAA, PCI, SOC 2) is baked into the architecture, not bolted on later.
- hourly billing, unknown total cost
- junior and mid-level developers on your project
- compliance treated as an afterthought
- no fixed timeline, scope creep common
- code ownership unclear, often uses shared IP
- no load testing or monitoring until after launch
- fixed price quoted in week 2, no surprises
- senior engineers only (12+ years average)
- HIPAA, PCI, SOC 2 built into architecture
- 8-12 week delivery with weekly sprints
- full source code ownership from day one
- k6 load testing and Datadog monitoring included
Our 4-phase process for scalable backend development
Every project follows the same proven roadmap that eliminates guesswork and delivers a production-ready backend on time and on budget.
The process starts with an intensive 1-week Idea phase where we map out your core functionality, user flows, and data model. We then move to a 1-week Roadmap phase that produces a detailed technical specification and a fixed-price contract.
The Product phase (4-8 weeks) is where we build the backend sprint by sprint. Each sprint ends with a working, deployable increment. The Release phase (1-2 weeks) includes load testing, security scanning with Snyk, and deployment to your cloud account.
What ships with every backend project
You get more than just code. Every delivery includes the tools and documentation you need to run, monitor, and extend your backend independently.
We ship source code to your GitHub or GitLab repository from day one. You own everything we write. No proprietary frameworks, no locked-in infrastructure.
Our default stack includes PostgreSQL or MongoDB, Redis for caching, and an API gateway (NGINX or Kong). All deployments use Terraform for infrastructure as code.
- Source code in your repository (GitHub/GitLab)
- CI/CD pipeline with GitHub Actions
- Automated tests with Jest or pytest (80%+ coverage)
- Containerized services with Docker
- Kubernetes deployment manifests
- Load testing script (k6) for 10x target traffic
- Sentry error monitoring integration
- Datadog performance dashboards
- API documentation (OpenAPI or GraphQL schema)
- 30-day post-launch support and knowledge transfer
What we ship in this practice.
Fintech payment processing backend
Built a PCI-DSS compliant payment gateway that processes 500+ transactions per second. Used Node.js, PostgreSQL, and Stripe. Reduced transaction processing time by 35%.
Telehealth platform with HIPAA compliance
Developed a real-time video consultation backend serving 10,000 patients per month. Used Python FastAPI, WebRTC, and AWS HealthLake. Achieved 99.97% uptime over 12 months.
SaaS analytics platform for 500k users
Rebuilt a monolithic analytics backend into microservices on Kubernetes. Used Go, Redis, and TimescaleDB. Cut query latency from 8 seconds to 200ms.
Multi-vendor e-commerce marketplace backend
Created a scalable order and inventory system supporting 5 million products. Used Ruby on Rails, Elasticsearch, and AWS Fargate. Handled Black Friday traffic with zero downtime.
IoT device data ingestion pipeline
Built a serverless pipeline ingesting 1 million events per hour from 50,000 devices. Used AWS Lambda, DynamoDB, and Kinesis. Cost 40% less than the previous on-prem solution.
Real-time collaborative editing backend
Developed a WebSocket-based backend for a collaborative document editor. Used Node.js, Redis pub/sub, and MongoDB. Supported 5,000 concurrent editors with under 100ms latency.
Why teams hire us.
Fixed price, not hourly billing
Every project gets a fixed quote in the Roadmap phase (week 2). No hourly billing, no surprise invoices, no scope creep charges. You know the exact cost before we write a line of code.
Senior engineers only
Our team averages 12 years of experience. No junior developers. Every engineer has shipped production backends at scale. We assign a project lead who stays with you from Idea to Release.
Full code ownership
You own all source code we write from day one. No proprietary frameworks, no hidden licenses. We push code to your repository. You can take it anywhere after the project.
Compliance built into architecture
HIPAA, PCI-DSS, SOC 2, and FERPA controls are part of the initial architecture design. We encrypt data at rest and in transit, implement audit logging, and run vulnerability scans with Snyk weekly.
8-12 week MVPs that ship
We deliver a production-ready backend in 8 to 12 weeks. Each sprint ends with a deployable increment. You see real progress every 14 days, not slides.
Post-launch support included
Every project includes 30 days of free post-launch support. We monitor logs, fix bugs, and help with the first production incidents. After 30 days, you can continue with a monthly retainer or manage in-house.
Idea → Roadmap → Product → Release.
Every engagement runs through the same four-stage pipeline. Predictable by design.
