What professional custom backend development includes
We build the core systems that power your product from day one.
Every backend starts with a technology audit to choose the right stack for your traffic patterns and compliance needs. Our engineers design data models, API contracts, and cloud architecture before writing a single line of code.
The build phase uses 2-week sprints with automated tests and continuous integration. You see a working demo every sprint and can adjust requirements without derailing the timeline.
How IRPR differs from typical backend agencies
Most shops over-promise and under-deliver. We don't.
Generic dev shops often start with junior developers learning on your budget and switch team members mid-project. They bill by the hour and treat every feature request as a change order.
IRPR assigns a dedicated team of senior engineers who stay on your project until launch. You get a fixed price after the Roadmap phase, and all changes are scoped transparently before work begins.
- Hourly billing with no cap and no estimate accuracy
- Junior engineers learning on your dime
- No SLA for uptime or response time
- Scope creep without formal change requests
- Code dump without CI, monitoring, or documentation
- No compliance expertise — HIPAA or PCI added as afterthought
- Fixed price determined in the Roadmap phase (week 2)
- Senior engineers with 10+ years experience, no subcontractors
- 99.9% uptime SLA for production systems
- Scope locked after Roadmap; changes priced transparently
- CI/CD pipeline, Sentry monitoring, and full documentation included
- HIPAA, PCI-DSS, SOC 2 compliance built into every build
The 4 phases of building your backend
Our process turns an idea into a shipped system in 12 weeks.
We follow a structured, transparent process that starts with validating your requirements and ends with production deployment. Each phase has clear deliverables and go/no-go checkpoints.
You stay involved throughout with weekly demos and a dedicated project dashboard.

- Datadog dashboards for key metrics (latency, error rate, throughput)
- Deployment runbook and architecture diagram in Confluence
- 30-day post-launch warranty with priority support
What we ship in this practice.
Subscription Billing Backend
Built recurring billing for a SaaS platform with Stripe integration and metered usage. Reduced failed payments by 25% and cut reconciliation time from 2 days to 2 hours. Tech: Node.js, PostgreSQL, Stripe API.
Real-time Collaboration API
Designed a WebSocket-based backend for a team chat app that handles 50,000 concurrent connections with under 100ms latency. Tech: Go, Redis, WebSockets.
Healthcare Data Pipeline
Built a HIPAA-compliant pipeline ingesting EHR data from three different systems into a unified analytics dashboard. Reduced data latency from 24 hours to 5 minutes. Tech: Python, Apache Kafka, AWS Glue.
Ecommerce Inventory Management
Developed a multi-warehouse inventory backend with real-time stock sync across five locations. Eliminated overselling and reduced manual stock checks by 15 hours per week. Tech: Ruby on Rails, MongoDB, RabbitMQ.
Payment Gateway Integration
Created a unified API layer for processing payments via Stripe, PayPal, and Braintree. Saved the client 200 engineering hours per year on integration maintenance. Tech: Python, FastAPI, Celery.
IoT Data Ingestion Backend
Built a scalable backend that ingests 2 million device messages per day with 99.99% uptime. Included anomaly detection and automatic scaling. Tech: AWS IoT Core, Lambda, DynamoDB.
Why teams hire us.
Fixed Price, Not Hourly
Every project gets a fixed quote after the Roadmap phase (week 2). No hourly billing, no surprise invoices. Our average backend project ranges from $80,000 to $250,000.
Senior Engineers Only
All code is written by engineers with 10+ years of experience. No junior devs, no outsourcing. IRPR has shipped over 200 products using this model.
Compliance Built In
We handle HIPAA, PCI-DSS, and SOC 2 as part of the build. No separate audit needed. IRPR has delivered 50+ regulated backend projects.
8-12 Week Delivery
We ship production-ready backends in 8 to 12 weeks from kickoff. 98% of our projects finish on time or ahead of schedule.
Full Code Ownership
You own all source code, IP, and documentation. We transfer everything to your GitHub repository on launch day. No lock-in.
Post-Launch Support
Every project includes a 30-day warranty with bug fixes. We also offer ongoing maintenance at a fixed monthly fee starting at $5,000.
Idea → Roadmap → Product → Release.
Every engagement runs through the same four-stage pipeline. Predictable by design.
