Top Custom Backend Development StudioBackend Development
100+ backend systems shipped for startups and enterprises. Senior engineers, fixed pricing, 12-week delivery.
IRPR builds custom backend systems using Node.js, Python, Go, and Java. We design REST and GraphQL APIs, microservices architectures, and event-driven systems.
Delivery takes 8-12 weeks for a production-ready MVP. Prices range from $80K to $250K depending on complexity. All projects meet PCI-DSS, HIPAA, or SOC 2 compliance where needed.
CTOs who need a scalable backend without hiring a team. Startup founders who want to launch an MVP in months. Enterprise architects integrating legacy systems with modern APIs.
Types of software we ship.
REST API Development
Build stateless REST APIs with Node.js or Python. Includes Swagger docs, rate limiting, and JWT auth.
GraphQL API Development
Schema-first GraphQL APIs with Apollo or Hasura. Supports federation for multi-team environments.
Microservices Architecture
Decompose monoliths into Dockerized microservices. Use RabbitMQ or Kafka for async communication.
Real-Time Backend
WebSocket servers and real-time data pipelines using Socket.io, WebRTC, or AWS IoT Core.
Database Design & Implementation
PostgreSQL, MongoDB, or DynamoDB schema design with indexing, sharding, and backup strategies.
Authentication & Authorization Systems
OAuth 2.0, OpenID Connect, JWT, SAML integrations for single sign-on and role-based access.
CI/CD & DevOps for Backend
GitHub Actions or Jenkins pipelines for automated testing, deployment, and monitoring of backend services.
Legacy System Modernization
Refactor legacy PHP, .NET, or Java monoliths into modern, scalable backend services with cloud-native tools.
We build for every business type.

Why choose a custom backend development studio
Off-the-shelf backends don't scale to your business rules.
IRPR builds backend systems tailored to your data model and growth trajectory. We use Node.js, Python, Go, and Java to serve 1 to 10 million users. Every API is designed for 99.9% uptime and sub-200ms response times.
We start with a two-week Roadmap phase to define endpoints, data models, and infrastructure. Fixed price quote before any code is written. Our team includes full-time senior engineers who specialise in backend only.
Custom backend vs generic development shops
Not all backend teams deliver production-ready systems.
Generic shops often use a single framework and skip security hardening. They bill hourly and change scope. You end up with slow APIs and tech debt.
IRPR is different. We assign senior engineers, use multiple languages, and enforce code reviews. Every project includes load testing, CI/CD, and monitoring from day one.
- Uses one language only
- Hourly billing with scope creep
- No load testing
- APIs not documented
- No CI/CD pipeline
- No post-launch monitoring
- Multi-language (Node, Python, Go, Java)
- Fixed price per phase
- Load testing with k6 or Artillery
- Swagger/OpenAPI docs by default
- GitHub Actions CI/CD
- Datadog or Sentry monitoring
How we build your custom backend
A four-phase process from idea to production.
Phase one: Idea validation and tech stack selection. Phase two: Roadmap with full system design and fixed quote. Phase three: Development in 2-week sprints with daily standups. Phase four: Deployment and knowledge transfer.
What you get with every backend project
Every deliverable is documented, tested, and production-ready.
IRPR ships more than just code. You own the entire repository, all documentation, and the infrastructure setup. No black boxes, no third-party lock-in.
- Source code in your private GitHub or GitLab repo
- Swagger/OpenAPI documentation with interactive test interface
- CI/CD pipeline using GitHub Actions or GitLab CI
- Docker containers for all services with Docker Compose
- Database migration scripts and seed data
- Load test results with k6 or Artillery reports
- API monitoring dashboard with uptime and latency alerts
- Postman collection for manual testing
- Deployment playbook with AWS, GCP, or Azure steps
- 30-day post-launch support for bug fixes
What we ship in this practice.
Subscription analytics backend for a SaaS startup
Built a Node.js API to track user sessions, feature usage, and billing events. Reduced monthly report generation from 6 hours to 10 minutes. Tech: Node.js, PostgreSQL, Redis, Stripe.
PCI-compliant payment gateway for a fintech app
Developed a Go-based transaction processing service handling 500+ requests per second. Passed PCI-DSS Level 1 audit in quarter 1. Tech: Go, PostgreSQL, RabbitMQ, AWS KMS.
HIPAA-compliant patient portal backend for a telehealth startup
Created a Python/FastAPI backend with end-to-end encryption and audit logging. Onboarded 50 clinics in 3 months. Tech: FastAPI, PostgreSQL, Firebase Auth, AWS HealthLake.
Multi-tenant e-commerce backend for a D2C brand
Built a GraphQL API serving 100k daily active users with sub-100ms responses. Integrated with Shopify and Klaviyo for order sync. Tech: Apollo GraphQL, Node.js, DynamoDB, Stripe.
Real-time inventory service for a logistics company
Developed a WebSocket-based inventory tracking system using Node.js and Redis streams. Reduced stock discrepancies by 95%. Tech: Node.js, Socket.io, Redis, MongoDB, AWS Fargate.
Legacy SOAP to REST migration for an insurance firm
Replaced a 15-year-old SOAP backend with a modern REST API in Java Spring Boot. Cut average response time from 4s to 200ms. Tech: Java Spring Boot, PostgreSQL, Kafka, ELK stack.
Why teams hire us.
Fixed price, not hourly billing
Every project gets a fixed quote after the two-week Roadmap phase. No hourly tracking, no surprise invoices. 98% of our projects complete within budget.
Senior engineers only
IRPR hires only senior-level backend engineers with 8+ years of experience. Every engineer has shipped at least 5 production systems using multiple languages.
Full ownership of code and infrastructure
You own all source code, documentation, and deployment scripts. No lock-in to proprietary platforms. We use standard tools you can maintain yourself.
Compliance built in (HIPAA, PCI, SOC 2)
We design for compliance from day one. 40% of our projects require HIPAA or PCI-DSS. We include encryption, audit logs, and access controls by default.
Rapid delivery with 8-12 week MVPs
Most custom backends take 6 months or more. IRPR delivers production-ready APIs in 8-12 weeks by using proven patterns and senior engineers.
Post-launch support and monitoring
Every project includes 30 days of post-launch support. We set up Datadog or Sentry monitoring and provide a runbook for your team. 90% of clients extend support contracts.
Idea → Roadmap → Product → Release.
Every engagement runs through the same four-stage pipeline. Predictable by design.
