Professional Scalable Backend Development ServicesBackend Development
Senior backend engineers build your server-side architecture in 8-12 weeks. Fixed price, no surprises.
IRPR provides professional scalable backend development services for companies that need server-side infrastructure that handles growth. We build with Node.js, Python, Go, and Java on AWS, GCP, or Azure. Every project includes auto-scaling, load balancing, and database optimization from day one.
A typical backend project ships in 12-14 weeks with a fixed price between $80K and $250K. We handle compliance for HIPAA, PCI-DSS, and SOC 2. The deliverable includes a production-ready API, CI/CD pipeline, and monitoring stack.
Founders who raised a seed round and need a production backend before Series A hire us. CTOs of mid-market companies replacing a legacy monolith hire us. Engineering leads at SaaS platforms adding a microservices layer hire us. Product owners building an API-first product hire us.
Types of software we ship.
REST API Development
Build stateless RESTful APIs with Express.js, FastAPI, or Spring Boot. Supports OAuth 2.0, rate limiting, and Swagger documentation.
GraphQL Backend

Serverless Backend
Serverless functions on AWS Lambda or Google Cloud Functions with API Gateway, DynamoDB, and step functions for event-driven architecture.
Data Pipeline Backend
ETL and streaming data pipelines using Apache Airflow, Snowflake, and Kafka. Handles billions of records per day.
Ecommerce Backend
Custom ecommerce backend with Stripe, Shopify integrations, inventory management, and order processing at scale.
B2B SaaS Backend
Multi-tenant SaaS backend with Auth0, PostgreSQL schemas per tenant, metered billing via Stripe, and report generation.
We build for every business type.
Financial services
Healthcare
Ecommerce
SaaS platforms
Logistics and supply chain
Why Professional Scalable Backend Development Services Matter
A scalable backend handles higher traffic, stores more data, and adds features without breaking.
Without proper scalability, a 10x user spike crashes your API. We build with AWS Auto Scaling, CloudFront CDN, and database read replicas. Each deployment includes load testing with k6 or Artillery to benchmark performance.
Your backend must support future integrations. We standardize on REST or GraphQL with OpenAPI specs. Every service has a documented contract that third parties and your frontend can consume without custom adapters.
The Difference Between Generic Backend Shops and IRPR
Most agencies deliver a working backend. We deliver a backend you can scale to 1 million users.
A generic backend shop writes code fast but ignores observability, security, and cost optimization. Six months later you face a database meltdown or a $50K monthly AWS bill.
IRPR builds with observability from day one. We install Sentry, Datadog, and CloudWatch alerts. Every endpoint is secured with JWT, rate-limited, and logged. We deliver a backend that costs less to run and never surprises you.
- No load testing before launch
- Uses a single database with no replicas
- No monitoring or alerting setup
- Hardcoded configuration values
- No CI/CD pipeline, manual deploys
- Vague timeline, hourly billing
- Load tested to 10,000 concurrent requests
- PostgreSQL with read replicas and connection pooling
- Datadog + Sentry + CloudWatch fully configured
- Environment variables and secrets manager (AWS SSM)
- GitHub Actions CI/CD with staged deployments
- Fixed price, 8-14 week delivery
Our Backend Development Process in 4 Phases
We move from idea to production backend in 4 clear phases with measurable milestones.
Every project starts with a 2-week Roadmap phase. We map your domain, design the data model, and estimate exactly. You get a fixed price and a Gantt chart before we write a single line of code.
During development we ship every 2 weeks. You see working endpoints, database schemas, and test coverage reports. Deployment happens only after you approve.
What Ships When You Hire IRPR
You own everything. Source code, infrastructure, documentation. No lock-in.
At the end of the project you receive a complete production backend. We transfer the AWS/GCP/Azure account to you. Your team can take over immediately.
We also include a 30-day post-launch support period. Your team can ask questions, request small changes, and get help with any issues. No extra cost.
- Source code in your private GitHub repo
- CI/CD pipeline on GitHub Actions
- PostgreSQL database with migration scripts
- RESTful API with Swagger/OpenAPI docs
- AWS or GCP infrastructure as code (Terraform)
- Sentry error tracking and performance monitoring
- Datadog dashboards for latency, errors, and cost
- Load test report with k6 results
- Runbook with deployment steps and troubleshooting
- 30-day post-launch support
What we ship in this practice.
Fintech Payment Processing Backend
Built a PCI-DSS compliant payment backend for a fintech startup handling $5M monthly transactions. Tech stack: Node.js, AWS Lambda, DynamoDB, Stripe Connect, Auth0. Reduced payment failure rate from 3% to 0.5%.
Telehealth Appointment Booking API
Developed a HIPAA-compliant backend for a telehealth platform. Used Go, PostgreSQL, AWS RDS, Twilio Video. Supported 2,000 concurrent video calls and reduced scheduling latency by 60%.
B2B SaaS Multi-Tenant Backend
Architected a multi-tenant backend for a SaaS analytics platform. Each tenant has isolated schemas in PostgreSQL. Tech stack: Python, Django REST, Redis, Celery. Onboarded 150 tenants in 3 months.
Ecommerce Order Processing Backend
Rebuilt a legacy order system for a direct-to-consumer brand. Node.js, Express, MongoDB, Shopify API integration. Cut order processing time from 4 hours to 15 seconds.
Real-Time Fleet Tracking Backend
Created a real-time tracking backend for a logistics company using WebSockets and Kafka. Java, Spring Boot, AWS Kinesis. Tracked 10,000 vehicles and reduced ETA errors by 40%.
Data Pipeline for EdTech Platform
Built an ETL pipeline to process 50 million student interactions per day. Apache Airflow, Snowflake, Python. Provided real-time dashboards for teachers with < 5 second latency.
Why teams hire us.
Fixed price, not hourly
Every backend project has a fixed quote negotiated during the Roadmap phase (week 2). No hourly billing, no surprise invoices, no scope creep charges. You know the cost before we start.
Senior engineers only
Every engineer on your project has 8+ years of backend experience. We don't offshore to junior developers. Your project is led by a staff engineer who has built systems handling 10 million requests per day.
Compliance built-in from day one
We build HIPAA, PCI-DSS, and SOC 2 controls directly into the architecture. No retrofitting. Audit trails, encryption at rest and in transit, and access controls are configured before you go to production.
You own the code and infrastructure
Full source code ownership. The repo is in your GitHub from day one. The AWS or GCP account is yours. We transfer everything. You can fire us and keep running. No lock-in, no licenses.
8-12 week MVP delivery
We ship a production-ready backend in 8 to 12 weeks. No endless discovery phases. By week 12 you have endpoints, a database, monitoring, and documentation. You can launch immediately.
Real support after launch
30 days of post-launch support included. 24-hour response SLA for critical issues. We stay on the project until your team is comfortable. No handoff and vanish.
