Hire backend developers.
Backend developers who build for the worst day
Node.js, Python and Go engineers designing APIs, data models and integrations that hold up under load and audit. Security-minded, test-obsessed, documentation-friendly.
Give the developer a clear area to own.
The backend is a promise made under pressure: every request correct, every integration recoverable, every audit answerable. Our engineers carry regulated traffic for a living: payments, records and ledgers. They also write the documentation the next hire can follow.
API design & development
REST and GraphQL services with versioning and docs other teams enjoy consuming.
Microservices & monolith rescue
Boundaries drawn honestly, including the discipline to keep a monolith when it serves you.
Payments & billing integrations
Rails, reconciliation and retries engineered so the numbers always balance.
Database design & tuning
PostgreSQL schemas and queries tuned for real access patterns, not demos.
Auth & security hardening
Least privilege, encryption and the boring hygiene that prevents incidents.
Backend audits & rescue
Inherit a service, stabilise it, and resume shipping without the sleepless nights.
How the role fits your existing team
From payment rails to clinical records, they design for the worst day and then make it boring. Tests as a habit, least-privilege as a default, and runbooks that turn incidents into checklists.

Onboard and scale
Grow into a pod with a lead when you are ready.
Clear answers before you commit.
Roles, rates, working arrangements and the decisions to make before onboarding.
Primarily Node.js, Python and Go with PostgreSQL. If your stack differs, tell us, we will say no honestly if we cannot staff it well.
Yes. Most engagements begin with a knowledge-transfer week and a stabilisation plan before new features.
Engineers work in your infrastructure with least-privilege access, NDA signed, and access revoked the day an engagement ends.
Most clients do. One engineer proving the model, then a pod of three to five within a quarter.
