Professional Scalable Backend Development FirmBackend Development
We build backend systems that handle millions of requests with zero downtime. You get a fixed price contract and full code ownership.
IRPR builds production-grade backend architectures using Node.js, Python, Go, and .NET. We design for high concurrency, low latency, and fault tolerance with tools like Kafka, Redis, and Kubernetes.
A typical backend project ships in 8-12 weeks with a fixed price between $80K and $250K. We deliver on AWS or GCP with CI/CD pipelines, monitoring, and HIPAA/PCI compliance where needed.
Startup CTOs scaling past 10K users hire us to rebuild legacy backends. Enterprise architects need us for microservices migration. Series A companies use us for their MVP backend that won't need rewriting. SaaS leaders hire us to reduce API latency below 50ms.
Types of software we ship.
Real-time API Gateway

Why scalable backend development matters
A backend that scales prevents outages, keeps costs predictable, and lets you focus on features instead of firefighting.
IRPR has shipped 200+ backend projects across 50 countries. Our clients see an average 98% reduction in infrastructure-related incidents after migration. We use Kubernetes auto-scaling and database read replicas to handle traffic spikes without manual intervention.
A scalable backend also lowers operational cost. One client reduced their monthly AWS bill by 40% after we refactored their monolith into efficient microservices. Our fixed price model means you know the cost upfront, not per hour.
The difference between a professional backend firm and a generic dev shop
Not every team can build a backend that scales. Here's how IRPR compares.
Generic dev shops often build backends that work at launch but break under load. They use hourly billing that rewards slow work. They don't own SLA metrics or provide post-launch monitoring.
IRPR delivers production backends that are designed for scale from day one. We include load testing, monitoring, and a deployment playbook in every project. You own the code and we ship on time.
- Hourly billing with no cap
- No load testing included
- No SLA for uptime or latency
- Code quality varies per developer
- No CI/CD pipeline setup
- You don't own the full codebase
- Fixed price from week 2
- Load testing report delivered
- 99.9% uptime SLA in contract
- Senior engineers only (10+ years avg)
- CI/CD with GitHub Actions built in
- Full code ownership, no licensing
Our backend development process: from audit to deployment
We follow a 4-step process that guarantees a production-ready backend in 8-12 weeks.
Every engagement starts with a deep audit of your current systems or requirements. We map dependencies, identify bottlenecks, and agree on a technology stack that fits your team and scale goals.
The build phase uses continuous delivery: every commit is deployed to a staging environment. We run load tests at 10x expected traffic before final production deployment. You get a runbook and monitoring dashboard.
What ships with every scalable backend project
Every backend delivery includes the following deliverables, so you can run and maintain it yourself from day one.
Source code in your own Git repository with full commit history.
- Source code in your private GitHub/GitLab repo
- CI/CD pipeline on GitHub Actions or GitLab CI
- API documentation with Swagger/OpenAPI
- Error tracking with Sentry integration
- Load testing report (10x traffic scenario)
- Architecture decision records (ADRs) for every choice
- Deployment playbook for rolling back and scaling
- Security audit report (OWASP top 10 scan)
- Monitoring dashboard in Datadog or Grafana
- Post-launch support for 30 calendar days
What we ship in this practice.
Real-time payment processing backend
Built for a fintech startup handling 5M transactions per month. We used Node.js, PostgreSQL, Kafka, and Stripe to reduce processing time from 2 seconds to 300ms. The team now processes 10x volume without infrastructure changes.
HIPAA-compliant patient data API
A healthcare platform needed a backend to store and share PHI across clinics. We used Python with FastAPI, PostgreSQL with row-level encryption, and AWS HealthLake. API latency stayed under 100ms for 99% of requests.
Ecommerce checkout microservice
A DTC brand was losing 15% of carts due to slow checkout. We rebuilt the checkout backend in Go with Redis caching and Stripe Connect. Cart abandonment dropped to 5% and page load time went from 4s to 0.8s.
Multi-tenant SaaS backend for CRM
A B2B SaaS company needed tenant isolation without per-tenant servers. We designed a shared PostgreSQL schema with row-level security and a Node.js/Express API. The system now handles 500 tenants per instance with zero data leaks.
Property search API with geospatial indexing
A real estate platform needed to serve 50K listings with complex polygon searches. We built the backend using .NET Core, PostgreSQL with PostGIS, and Elasticsearch. Search results returned in under 200ms for 90% of queries.
Mobile app backend for social network
A social media startup needed a backend to handle 10M daily active users with push notifications and real-time feeds. We used Firebase, Cloud Functions, and Firestore with WebSocket scaling. Costs stayed under $5K/month on GCP.
Why teams hire us.
Fixed price, not hourly
Every backend project gets a fixed quote during the Roadmap phase (week 2). You never pay for discovery or scope creep. The price you see is the price you pay.
Full code ownership
You own every line of code we write. There are no licenses, no royalties, no ongoing fees. The source code, infrastructure as code, and documentation are all yours.
98% on-time delivery
We have shipped over 200 projects with a 98% on-time record. We use strict sprint planning and a fixed scope contract. Late delivery means a discount on our next engagement.
HIPAA and PCI compliance built in
All backend systems include encryption at rest and in transit, access controls, and audit logging. We've built HIPAA-compliant backends for 30+ healthcare companies and PCI-DSS compliant backends for 20+ fintech firms.
Senior engineers only
Our team averages 10+ years of production backend experience. Every project is staffed with a lead engineer who has shipped at least 5 scalable backends before. No juniors, no offshore assembly line.
Post-launch monitoring included
We set up Datadog dashboards, Sentry error tracking, and PagerDuty alerts as part of every project. You get 30 days of proactive support after go-live to handle any issues.
Idea → Roadmap → Product → Release.
Every engagement runs through the same four-stage pipeline. Predictable by design.
