Backend Development

A backend that doesn't fall over the first time it gets real traffic.

It worked in the demo. Then real users showed up, the database started timing out, and nobody could explain why one endpoint takes four seconds. We build the data model, API structure, and auth around your actual scale needs from day one — in Node.js, documented, not held together by whoever wrote it last.

Overview

Boring, reliable architecture beats clever code.

We design the database schema and API contract before writing implementation code, add the validation and access control that get skipped under deadline pressure, and document endpoints properly — so the backend is something your team can hand off, not just something that currently works.

What We Offer

What we can start with

Architecture & Requirements

The data flow and system boundaries mapped out before any code gets written — not reverse-engineered from whatever got built first.

Database Schema Design

A schema built for your actual query patterns and growth, not the first structure that seemed to work in development.

REST API Development

Endpoints with real validation, error handling, and documentation — not a route that only works for the one request you tested.

Authentication & Authorization

Role-based access built in from the start, not bolted onto an API that originally trusted every request.

Third-Party Integrations

Payment processors, email services, external APIs — wired in with proper error handling for when they inevitably go down.

Testing & Deployment Support

Load and security checks before launch, not after your first traffic spike takes the API down.

Process

Our backend development process

Step 01

Requirements & Architecture

We map the data flow, integrations, and expected scale before writing a line of code — the decisions that are expensive to reverse later.

  • Feature requirements
  • Data flow mapping
  • System architecture
  • Integration planning
Step 02

Database & API Planning

We define the schema, endpoints, and access rules around your actual query patterns — not the shape that happened to be easiest to build first.

  • Database schema
  • API contract
  • Validation rules
  • Access control design
Step 03

Backend Development

Server-side logic, APIs, and integrations built with real error handling — the kind that shows up the first time a third-party service times out.

  • REST APIs
  • Authentication
  • Database operations
  • External integrations
Step 04

Testing & Deployment Support

We test for load, security gaps, and error conditions that happy-path testing never triggers, before the backend goes anywhere near production traffic.

  • API & load testing
  • Security checks
  • Error handling review
  • Deployment support
Step 05

API Documentation

Endpoints documented well enough that a frontend developer — yours or ours — can integrate without a Slack thread for every field name.

  • Endpoint documentation
  • Request/response examples
  • Error code reference
  • Postman/OpenAPI collection
Step 06

Monitoring & Handoff

Logging and error tracking set up before launch, so the first production issue shows up in a dashboard instead of a user complaint.

  • Error monitoring setup
  • Logging configuration
  • Handoff documentation
  • Post-launch availability
