We build high-performance, scalable backends for server-rendered apps, APIs, and microservices. Get a fixed-price quote in week 2.
IRPR builds premium custom backend development for companies that need distributed systems, real-time data pipelines, and secure APIs. We use Node.js, Go, Python, PostgreSQL, Redis, and cloud-native tools on AWS or GCP.
Each project ships with a full CI/CD pipeline, automated testing in Jest or PyTest, Sentry error tracking, and Terraform infrastructure as code. Typical timelines run 8-12 weeks for an MVP, with fixed pricing from $80K to $250K. We comply with HIPAA, PCI-DSS, and SOC 2 where required.
Startup CTOs needing a production-ready backend before raising Series A. Enterprise engineering directors offloading a critical infrastructure project. SaaS founders scaling from monolith to microservices. Each buyer gets a senior team of 2-4 engineers dedicated to their project.
Types of software we ship.
Custom API Development
Build RESTful or GraphQL APIs with OpenAPI specs. We integrate with Stripe, Twilio, and external services for payment, messaging, and more.
Microservices Architecture
Design and implement event-driven microservices with message brokers like RabbitMQ or Kafka. Deploy on Kubernetes with Istio.
Database Design & Optimization
Schema design for PostgreSQL, MongoDB, or DynamoDB. We optimize queries, indexing, and caching with Redis to handle 10x traffic.
Serverless Backend Development

Why hire premium custom backend development consultants?
Our numbers speak for themselves.
Every backend we build is designed for scale and security. We start with a fixed-price Roadmap in week 2 so you know exactly what you get.
Our team of senior engineers has shipped 200+ products across 50 countries. We deliver on time 98% of the time.
What sets premium custom backend development apart from generic dev shops?
Not all backend consultants deliver the same quality.
Generic dev shops often cut corners with junior talent, hourly billing, and no long-term thinking. Your backend ends up fragile and hard to maintain.
IRPR treats your backend as a product. We invest in architecture, testing, and monitoring so your system scales without tech debt.
- Hourly billing with no cap
- Junior or offshore teams
- No architecture review
- Code quality varies
- No CI/CD or monitoring setup
- No post-launch support
- Fixed price from day one
- Senior engineers only (US time zones)
- Architecture review in Roadmap phase
- Code reviews and automated testing
- CI/CD, error tracking, uptime monitoring
- 2 weeks of post-launch support included
Our backend consulting process
We follow a repeatable 4-phase method to ship your custom backend.
Phase 1: Idea – Clarify requirements, choose tech stack (Node.js, Python, Go). Phase 2: Roadmap – Detailed plan with milestones, fixed price.
Phase 3: Product – Build sprints with daily demos, automated tests. Phase 4: Release – Deploy to production, CI/CD, Sentry, 2-week support.
What ships with your backend project
Every project includes these deliverables by default.
From source code to production monitoring, you get everything needed to run a reliable backend.
- Source code in your private GitHub repository
- CI/CD pipeline with GitHub Actions or GitLab CI
- Automated test suite (Jest, PyTest, or Go test)
- API documentation (Swagger/OpenAPI or Postman collection)
- Infrastructure as code (Terraform or Pulumi)
- Error tracking with Sentry
- Uptime monitoring with Datadog or New Relic
- Deployment runbook and environment setup guide
- Architecture diagram and API contract
- 2 weeks of post-launch support and bug fixes
What we ship in this practice.
Multi-Tenant SaaS Backend
Built a scalable backend for a B2B SaaS platform using Node.js, PostgreSQL, and Redis. The system handled 10x growth in users without downtime using auto-scaling on AWS ECS. Reduced server costs by 40% through efficient caching.
Real-Time Collaboration API
Designed WebSocket-based APIs for a collaborative document editing tool. Using Go and Redis Pub/Sub, the team achieved sub-100ms latency for 10,000 concurrent users. Shipped in 10 weeks.
HIPAA-Compliant Telemedicine Backend
Developed a backend for a telemedicine platform with encrypted data storage and audit logs. Built on AWS with RDS, KMS, and CloudTrail. Passed HIPAA compliance audit on first attempt.
Inventory Management System for Retail
Created a real-time inventory management API for a multi-warehouse retailer. Stack: Python/Django, PostgreSQL, RabbitMQ for event processing. Reduced stock discrepancies by 95% and enabled 3-day shipping.
Payment Processing Gateway
Built a custom payment gateway integrating Stripe, PayPal, and bank transfers. Used microservices with Kafka for transaction logging and fraud detection. Handled $50M in transactions in the first year.
Legacy System Migration to Microservices
Migrated a monolith ERP system to 12 microservices on Kubernetes. Used Docker, Istio, and Prometheus. Improved deployment frequency from monthly to daily and reduced incident response time by 80%.
Why teams hire us.
Fixed price from the start
Every project gets a fixed quote in the Roadmap phase (week 2). No hourly billing, no surprise invoices, no scope creep charges. Typical projects range from $80K to $250K.
Senior engineers only
We assign senior engineers with 8+ years of experience. No juniors, no offshore teams. Your project team includes a dedicated architect and two full-stack backend engineers.
98% on-time delivery
Across 200+ projects, we deliver on time 98% of the time. We use 2-week sprints with daily standups and a transparent project board in Linear.
Production-ready infrastructure
Every backend ships with CI/CD, automated tests, error tracking, and monitoring. We deploy on AWS or GCP using Terraform and Docker. Your system is ready for scale from day one.
HIPAA, PCI, SOC 2 compliance support
We build backends that meet HIPAA, PCI-DSS, and SOC 2 standards. Our team has experience with healthcare, fintech, and enterprise compliance requirements.
Full code ownership and transfer
You own all source code, documentation, and infrastructure configs. We provide a handover package with architecture diagrams, runbooks, and a 2-week support period.
