Backend Development for Founders Who Ship
Robust, secure server-side systems built for scale, architected to handle real production load without breaking a sweat.
Everything you need,
nothing you don't
Scope
- •REST and GraphQL API design and development
- •Database architecture (PostgreSQL, MongoDB) built for your access patterns
- •Cloud infrastructure setup on AWS or Vercel, with CI/CD pipelines
- •Authentication, authorization, and security hardening
- •Performance tuning for systems under real production load
Who This Is For
Technical founders and product teams who need a backend that won’t need to be rebuilt the moment real traffic arrives.
- ✓Have a frontend or mobile app that needs a real API behind it
- ✓Current backend is struggling under load or held together with workarounds
- ✓Need auth, data architecture, and infrastructure done right the first time

Questions, answered
Can you build the backend for an app someone else is designing the frontend for?
Yes, this is a common engagement. We build and document APIs cleanly so any frontend team can integrate against them.
What database do you recommend for a new product?
It depends on your data shape and access patterns. We typically default to PostgreSQL for relational data and MongoDB for more flexible, document based needs, and we’ll walk you through the tradeoff for your case.
Do you handle authentication and security?
Yes, auth, authorization, and security hardening (rate limiting, input validation, secrets management) are standard parts of every backend engagement.
Can you help scale an existing backend that’s struggling under load?
Yes, we start with a performance audit to find the actual bottleneck before recommending infrastructure or architecture changes.
