Senior Scalable Backend Development CompanyBackend Development
We build backend systems that handle millions of requests without breaking. Fixed price, senior engineers, 8-12 week delivery.
IRPR is a senior scalable backend development company. We build backend systems using Go, Node.js, Python, PostgreSQL, Redis, Kafka, and AWS. Every engineer has 10+ years of experience and has shipped production systems at scale.
We ship a production-ready backend in 8-12 weeks. Pricing is fixed from $80K to $250K depending on complexity. All systems meet HIPAA, PCI-DSS, or SOC 2 compliance requirements. You get full source code ownership and a CI/CD pipeline.
CTOs hire us when their in-house team is too slow or lacks senior depth. Startup founders hire us to build a scalable MVP that won't need a rewrite. Enterprise architects hire us to modernize legacy backend systems without downtime.
Types of software we ship.
REST API development
Build stateless REST APIs with OpenAPI specs, rate limiting, and JWT auth. Deployed on AWS ECS with auto-scaling.
GraphQL backend
Implement GraphQL APIs with Apollo Server, DataLoader for batching, and real-time subscriptions via WebSockets.
Event-driven architecture
Design event-driven systems using Apache Kafka or RabbitMQ. Handle async workflows, retries, and dead-letter queues.
Microservices platform
Decompose monoliths into microservices with Docker, Kubernetes, and service mesh. Each service scales independently.
Real-time data pipeline
Build streaming data pipelines with Apache Flink or Spark. Process millions of events per second with exactly-once semantics.
Serverless backend
Create serverless backends using AWS Lambda, API Gateway, and DynamoDB. Pay per request, auto-scale to zero.
Database architecture
Design database schemas for PostgreSQL, MongoDB, or Cassandra. Implement sharding, replication, and read replicas.
Backend for mobile apps
Build push notification services, offline sync, and image upload pipelines for iOS and Android apps using Firebase and AWS S3.
We build for every business type.
SaaS companies
Fintech firms
Healthcare organizations
Ecommerce brands
Enterprise platforms
Why you need a senior scalable backend development company
A poorly designed backend costs you customers and engineers. We fix that.
Most backend projects fail because the team lacks senior engineers who have scaled systems before. Junior engineers write code that works for 100 users but breaks at 10,000. You end up rewriting the entire system six months later, losing time and market position.
IRPR assigns senior engineers who have built backends for companies processing millions of transactions per day. We design for scale from day one: horizontal scaling, database sharding, caching layers, and async processing. Your system handles growth without rewrites.
Generic dev shop vs senior scalable backend development company
Not all backend development companies are the same. Here is the difference.
Generic dev shops assign junior developers who follow tutorials. They build monolithic codebases that cannot scale. They charge by the hour and have no incentive to finish fast. You get a system that works in staging but crashes in production.
IRPR assigns senior engineers with 10+ years of experience. We build modular, scalable architectures from day one. We charge a fixed price and deliver in 8-12 weeks. You get a production-ready backend with monitoring, CI/CD, and documentation.

Our process for building scalable backend systems
We follow a four-phase process that eliminates surprises.
Every project starts with a two-week Roadmap phase. We analyze your requirements, design the system architecture, and produce a fixed-price quote. You pay only for the Roadmap if you decide not to proceed.
After you approve the Roadmap, we build the backend in 8-12 weeks. We deploy to staging after week 4 for early feedback. Production deployment happens after load testing and security review.
What ships with every backend project
Every project includes these deliverables by default. No hidden extras.
We believe in shipping production-ready systems, not prototypes. Every backend we build comes with monitoring, CI/CD, and documentation. You can hand it to your team or run it yourself from day one.
Our standard delivery includes source code in your GitHub repository, a CI/CD pipeline that runs tests and deploys automatically, and a monitoring dashboard with alerts. We also provide a Postman collection for API testing and a runbook for incident response.
- Source code in your private GitHub repository
- CI/CD pipeline on GitHub Actions with automated tests
- Dockerized application with docker-compose for local dev
- Kubernetes manifests for production deployment
- Datadog monitoring dashboard with custom metrics
- Sentry error tracking with alerting
- Postman collection with all API endpoints
- Runbook with incident response procedures
- Architecture diagram in Draw.io format
- Load test results from k6 with performance benchmarks
What we ship in this practice.
Real-time analytics backend for a SaaS platform
Built a streaming analytics backend using Apache Kafka and Apache Flink. Processed 50,000 events per second with sub-second latency. Reduced query time from 30 seconds to 200 milliseconds. Tech stack: Kafka, Flink, PostgreSQL, Redis, AWS EKS.
HIPAA-compliant patient data API for a telehealth startup
Designed a HIPAA-compliant backend with end-to-end encryption and audit logging. Handled 10,000 concurrent video sessions with zero downtime. Passed HIPAA audit on first attempt. Tech stack: Node.js, PostgreSQL, AWS KMS, Twilio.
Payment processing backend for a fintech platform
Built a PCI-DSS compliant payment engine that processes 1 million transactions per month. Integrated with Stripe, Plaid, and multiple bank APIs. Reduced transaction failure rate from 3% to 0.2%. Tech stack: Go, PostgreSQL, Redis, Stripe, Plaid.
Inventory management backend for an ecommerce brand
Created a real-time inventory system that syncs across 5 warehouses and 3 sales channels. Reduced stockouts by 80% and saved $200K in lost sales per year. Tech stack: Python, PostgreSQL, RabbitMQ, AWS Lambda, Shopify API.
Multi-tenant backend for a B2B SaaS analytics tool
Designed a multi-tenant architecture with row-level security and tenant isolation. Supported 500+ tenants on a single PostgreSQL cluster. Reduced infrastructure costs by 60% compared to per-tenant deployments. Tech stack: Ruby on Rails, PostgreSQL, Redis, Sidekiq, AWS RDS.
Legacy system modernization for a logistics company
Replaced a 15-year-old monolithic backend with a microservices architecture. Migrated 2 million records without data loss. Reduced deployment time from 4 hours to 15 minutes. Tech stack: Go, PostgreSQL, Kafka, Docker, Kubernetes, AWS ECS.
Why teams hire us.
Senior engineers only, no juniors
Every engineer at IRPR has 10+ years of experience and has shipped production systems at scale. We do not hire juniors or outsource to low-cost regions. You get a senior engineer who can design, build, and deploy your backend without handholding.
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. You know the exact cost before we write a single line of code. Typical projects range from $80K to $250K.
8-12 week delivery to production
We ship a production-ready backend in 8-12 weeks, not 6 months. Our senior engineers move fast because they have done this before. We deploy to staging after week 4 for early feedback. Production deployment happens after load testing and security review.
Full source code ownership
You own 100% of the source code, architecture diagrams, and documentation. No licensing fees, no vendor lock-in, no recurring payments. We put everything in your GitHub repository from day one. You can take the code and run it yourself.
Compliance built in from day one
We build HIPAA, PCI-DSS, and SOC 2 compliance into the architecture from the start. No retrofitting compliance after the fact. We have passed audits for healthcare, fintech, and enterprise clients. Your backend is audit-ready from day one.
Production monitoring and support
Every backend ships with Datadog monitoring, Sentry error tracking, and PagerDuty alerts. We provide 30 days of production support after launch. Your team gets a handover session and a runbook for incident response. We do not disappear after deployment.
