Senior Backend Development FirmBackend Development
We build scalable backend systems that handle millions of requests. Get a fixed-price, 12-week MVP with senior engineers.
IRPR builds backend systems in Go, Python, and Node.js, with PostgreSQL or CockroachDB for data layers. Our architecture handles 10,000+ requests per second with sub-100ms latency.
We deliver production-ready backend code in 12-14 weeks. Pricing is fixed from $80K to $250K depending on complexity. All projects meet HIPAA, PCI-DSS, or SOC 2 compliance if needed.
CTOs scaling a startup after Series A hire us. Engineering directors replacing a legacy monolith engage us. Hands-on founders who need a database schema designed by senior engineers who have done it 200+ times trust IRPR.
Types of software we ship.
Custom API Development
RESTful or GraphQL APIs built with Go or Fastify. Each endpoint is documented, tested, and deployed behind an API gateway like Kong.
Microservices Architecture
Decompose your monolith into services orchestrated with Kubernetes. Each microservice is independently deployable with its own database and CI/CD pipeline.
Database Design and Optimization
Schema design for PostgreSQL, MySQL, or MongoDB. We index for query performance and set up read replicas to keep latency under 50ms.
Real-time Data Pipelines
Stream processing with Apache Kafka or AWS Kinesis. We handle millions of events per day with exactly-once semantics.
Authentication and Authorization Systems
Implement OAuth 2.0, SAML, or OIDC with Auth0 or custom JWT. Role-based access control for multi-tenant SaaS apps.
Payment Gateway Integration
Stripe, Braintree, or Adyen integration with PCI-DSS compliance. Recurring billing, invoices, and webhook handling.
Cloud Infrastructure as Code
Terraform or Pulumi to provision AWS, GCP, or Azure resources. Automated scaling, monitoring with Datadog, and disaster recovery.
Serverless Backend Solutions
AWS Lambda or Cloud Functions with API Gateway. Event-driven architectures that scale to zero and save costs on idle time.
We build for every business type.
SaaS companies
Fintech startups
Healthcare platforms
Ecommerce businesses
Real estate platforms
Why senior backend engineers matter
Every millisecond of latency costs you users and revenue.
A poorly designed database schema or an untested API endpoint can bring down your entire product. IRPR's senior engineers review your data model in week 1 and catch bottlenecks before they hit production.
We've seen startups lose $50K/month after a slow index caused checkout timeouts. Our team prevents that with disciplined indexing, connection pooling, and global CDN caching.
The IRPR difference
Most dev shops treat backend as an afterthought. We start there.
Generic agencies assign junior developers and bill by the hour. IRPR gives you a fixed price and a team of senior engineers who have shipped backends for 200+ products.
Our 4-phase process (Idea, Roadmap, Product, Release) ensures every line of code is tested, documented, and deployed with CI/CD. You get complete ownership from day one.
- Hourly billing with no cap
- Junior devs on the project
- No database schema plan
- No testing beyond unit tests
- Slow response to production issues
- Code not documented
- Fixed price from Roadmap phase
- Senior engineers only, 10+ years experience
- Database schema reviewed in week 1
- Integration tests, load tests, and CI
- 24/7 on-call rotation for production
- Full documentation and architecture diagrams
How we build your backend
From idea to production in 12 weeks.
Our process is divided into four phases, each with concrete deliverables. The Idea phase (2 days) maps your business logic into a spec document with wireframes and data models.
The Roadmap phase (week 2) produces a fixed price quote and a 12-week timeline. Product and Release phases build the code and deploy to production.
What you get when you ship
No surprises. Every line of code is yours.
We don't just hand over code — we hand over a complete production environment. Source code, infrastructure, monitoring, and documentation all become your property.
Our checklist ensures nothing is forgotten. From database migrations to error tracking, you get everything needed to operate independently.
- Source code in your GitHub repo
- CI/CD pipeline with GitHub Actions
- Dockerized development environment
- Database migration scripts
- API documentation via Swagger/OpenAPI
- Performance and load testing report
- Monitoring dashboard in Datadog
- One year of bug fixes included
- AWS/GCP/Azure infrastructure as code
- Sentry error tracking configured
What we ship in this practice.
Payment processing API for a fintech startup
Built a PCI-DSS compliant payment API handling 50,000 transactions per day. Tech stack: Go, PostgreSQL, Stripe Connect, Terraform on AWS.
Patient scheduling system for a telehealth platform
Reduced appointment booking time from 4 minutes to 30 seconds. Tech stack: Node.js, PostgreSQL, Twilio Video, FHIR APIs.
Real-time inventory sync for an ecommerce brand
Eliminated overselling by syncing inventory across 3 warehouse locations in under 1 second. Tech stack: Python, Kafka, DynamoDB, React (admin panel).
Multi-tenant SaaS backend for a CRM company
Scaled from 10 to 500 tenants without any database contention. Tech stack: Ruby on Rails, PostgreSQL, Redis, Sidekiq, Docker.
Property listing API for a real estate platform
Ingested 1M+ MLS listings per day with 99.9% uptime. Tech stack: .NET Core, SQL Server, Elasticsearch, Azure Functions.
Student enrollment system for a university
Automated admission workflows saving 40 hours per week for admissions staff. Tech stack: Python, Django, PostgreSQL, Celery, AWS.
Why teams hire us.
Fixed price, not hourly
Every project gets a fixed quote in the Roadmap phase (week 2). No hourly billing, no surprise invoices, no scope creep charges.
Senior engineers only
Our smallest team is 2 senior engineers with 10+ years each. No juniors, no offshore 'resources'.
8-12 week MVP
We ship a production-ready backend in 8-12 weeks. Over 200 products have gone live on this timeline.
Compliance built in
HIPAA, PCI-DSS, and SOC 2 are part of our standard builds. We have auditors review every database schema and deployment pipeline.
Code ownership
You own everything - source code, infrastructure scripts, CI/CD configuration. We never hold a license hostage.
50+ countries delivered
We have shipped to clients in 50+ countries across 20 industries. Our async-first process works across any timezone.
Idea → Roadmap → Product → Release.
Every engagement runs through the same four-stage pipeline. Predictable by design.
Questions clients ask first.
