Premium Backend App Development ConsultantsBackend App
We build production-ready backends in 8-12 weeks. Fixed price, senior engineers only.
IRPR builds premium backends for apps that need to scale. We use Node.js, Go, Python, PostgreSQL, Redis, Docker, and Kubernetes on AWS or GCP.
Every engagement delivers a working backend in 8-12 weeks for $80K-$250K fixed price. Compliance with HIPAA, PCI-DSS, and SOC 2 is built into each project.
CTOs needing to scale a platform hire us. Startup founders building MVPs hire us. Enterprise engineering leads migrating legacy systems hire us. Product managers launching new features hire us.
Types of software we ship.
REST API development
Build stateless REST APIs with Express.js or FastAPI. Includes OpenAPI documentation and rate limiting.
GraphQL API development
Design flexible GraphQL APIs with Apollo or Hasura. Resolve complex data joins with Dataloader and Redis caching.
Microservices consulting
Decompose monoliths into microservices on Kubernetes. Use gRPC for inter-service calls and NATS for event streaming.
Event-driven architecture
Build async systems with Kafka or RabbitMQ. Handle millions of events per day with idempotent consumers.
Real-time backend engineering
Deliver live updates via WebSockets or Server-Sent Events. Use Socket.IO or AWS AppSync for sub-second push.
Database modeling & optimization
Design normalized SQL schemas in PostgreSQL or denormalized NoSQL in DynamoDB. Reduce query time by indexing and partitioning.
Cloud infrastructure design
Provision AWS/GCP/Azure with Terraform or CloudFormation. Auto-scale with ECS, GKE, or AKS.
Backend for mobile apps
Optimize backends for iOS/Android with Firebase or custom Node.js. Support offline sync with Conflict-Free Replicated Data Types.
We build for every business type.
SaaS companies
Fintech startups
Healthcare providers
Ecommerce brands
Enterprise platforms
Why premium backend consulting matters
Backend performance directly impacts user retention and revenue.
A slow API costs you users. Our premium backend consultants build services that handle 10,000 requests per second with sub-50ms response times. We optimize database queries, implement caching layers with Redis, and auto-scale with Kubernetes.
Security and compliance are non-negotiable. Every backend we build includes role-based access control, encrypted data at rest and in transit, and audit logging. We have shipped 200+ backends for HIPAA, PCI-DSS, and SOC 2 environments.
How IRPR compares to generic backend shops
Most agencies bill hourly and cut corners on architecture.
Generic dev shops assign junior developers and use hourly billing. They skip architecture docs and accumulate technical debt. We have seen clients waste $50K on poorly designed backends that need rewrites.
IRPR works differently. We assign senior engineers with 10+ years of experience, provide a fixed price upfront, and deliver production-ready code with full documentation. Our backends pass security audits on the first try.
- Hourly billing
- Junior developers
- No architecture diagrams
- Technical debt accumulating
- No compliance focus
- Delayed delivery
- Fixed price
- Senior engineers only
- C4 architecture diagrams
- Clean code with automated tests
- HIPAA/PCI/SOC 2 built-in
- 8-12 week delivery
Our backend development process
We follow a 4-phase approach from idea to release.
Every engagement starts with a discovery phase where we define scope, tech stack, and fixed price. You get a detailed roadmap within 2 weeks.
We then design the system architecture using C4 diagrams, build the backend in 2-week sprints, and deploy to production with CI/CD pipelines and monitoring.
What's included in every backend project
Every project ships with production-ready infrastructure.
There are no hidden add-ons. The fixed price includes everything needed to run the backend in production from day one.
- Source code in your private GitHub repo
- CI/CD pipeline using GitHub Actions
- Docker containerization
- API documentation (OpenAPI/Swagger)
- Monitoring with Datadog or Sentry
- Automated tests (unit, integration, e2e)
- Architecture diagrams (C4 model)
- Deployment to AWS/GCP/Azure
- Post-launch support for 30 days
- Performance baseline report
What we ship in this practice.
Real-time notification system for a SaaS platform
Built with Node.js, Redis, and WebSockets on AWS ECS. Reduced notification latency from 5 seconds to 200 milliseconds for 50,000 active users.
HIPAA-compliant API for a telehealth app
Developed with Django, PostgreSQL, and AWS. Passed security audit in 2 weeks and now handles 10,000 video consultations per month.
Payment processing backend for a fintech startup
Built with Go, Stripe, and Kubernetes on GCP. Processed $10M in transactions within the first month with 99.99% uptime.
Ecommerce product search API
Used Elasticsearch, Node.js, and Redis to index 2M products. Improved search response time by 80% and increased conversion rate by 15%.
EV charging station management backend
Engineered with Python, MQTT, and TimescaleDB on Azure. Manages 5,000 concurrent charging sessions with real-time status updates.
Real estate MLS data ingestion pipeline
Built on AWS Lambda, DynamoDB, and SQS. Ingests 100,000+ property listings daily with deduplication and geocoding.
Why teams hire us.
Fixed price, not hourly
Every project gets a fixed quote during the Roadmap phase (week 2). No hourly billing, no surprise invoices, no scope creep charges.
Senior engineers only
Our team averages 10+ years of backend experience. We never use junior developers on client projects. Every line of code is reviewed by a senior architect.
Production-ready from day one
We include CI/CD pipelines, monitoring with Datadog, structured logging, and automated tests in every project. Your backend is ready for production on deployment.
Compliance built-in
We have delivered 40+ HIPAA-compliant backends and 20+ PCI-DSS backends. Compliance controls are embedded in our development process, not bolted on after.
8-12 week MVPs
We have delivered 200+ products in 8-12 weeks with 98% on-time rate. Our process is optimized for speed without sacrificing quality or scalability.
Full code ownership
You own 100% of the source code and intellectual property. No licensing fees, no lock-in. We provide full access to all repositories and documentation.
Idea → Roadmap → Product → Release.
Every engagement runs through the same four-stage pipeline. Predictable by design.
