Backend & Cloud Development
Reliable APIs and cloud infrastructure that grow with your traffic.
OVERVIEW
WHAT'S INCLUDED
The backend is the part of a product users never see — the APIs, databases, background jobs and infrastructure that keep a website or app running. We build it with Node.js, Express and FastAPI, run it on AWS, and model data in PostgreSQL or MongoDB.
This service is for businesses that need an API for a new web or mobile app, want to connect the tools they already use, or need infrastructure that can grow with their traffic. It is often part of a larger web or mobile project, and can also be scoped on its own.
REST APIs and third-party integrations
Well-structured REST APIs that power your website, mobile app or internal tools, plus integrations with the services you rely on — such as payment providers like Razorpay, CRMs and email.
Serverless on AWS with Lambda and SQS/SNS
Serverless functions on AWS Lambda scale with demand and are billed for the time they actually run, while SQS queues and SNS notifications let slow or high-volume work run reliably in the background.
PostgreSQL and MongoDB data modelling
Database design that fits your data: PostgreSQL where relationships and consistency matter, MongoDB where flexible documents suit the product better. DynamoDB, Aurora and Redis are also part of our toolkit.
Auth, background jobs and monitoring
User authentication and access control, scheduled and queued background jobs, and monitoring so issues surface early and can be fixed quickly.
TECHNOLOGIES
THE STACK
Node.js with Express, or FastAPI with Python, for APIs; AWS — including Lambda, ECS and SQS/SNS — for infrastructure; PostgreSQL and MongoDB for data. Docker, Nginx and GitHub Actions cover containers, serving and automated deployments, and WebSockets power real-time features.

HOW IT WORKS
HOW THE PROJECT RUNS
Timelines depend on scope — the number of features, integrations and data sources involved. After a free discovery call you get a fixed quote and a clear timeline before work starts, and payments are split into milestones as the work is delivered.
Once the final payment is made you get full ownership of the code, design files and content, and we hand over the repository so you can host or extend it anywhere. After launch, our support and maintenance plans cover bug fixes, security and dependency updates, performance checks and new features as your business grows.
- Step 01
Discovery Call
We dig into your goals, your users and the scope — then give you a fixed quote with no surprises.
Deliverable: Scope doc + fixed quote
- Step 02
Research & Wireframes
We map user flows and the sitemap, then sketch low-fi wireframes so structure is settled before pixels.
Deliverable: User flows, sitemap + wireframes
- Step 03
UI Design
High-fidelity screens and a reusable design system. Nothing gets built until you sign off.
Deliverable: Hi-fi designs + design system
- Step 04
Development
Sprint-based build with a live demo link every week, so you see real progress — not status reports.
Deliverable: Weekly demo links
- Step 05
Testing & Launch
QA across devices and browsers, performance and SEO checks, then a smooth production deployment.
Deliverable: QA report + live site
- Step 06
Support & Growth
Ongoing maintenance, analytics and new features as your business grows. We stick around.
Deliverable: Maintenance plan + monthly insights
We are remote-first and work with clients in India and across time zones — with async progress updates, shared project boards and calls scheduled at a time that suits you.
