We build the back end: REST and GraphQL APIs, third-party integrations, scheduled jobs, webhooks and the services that sit between your website and everything else. Node, Express or Fastify, TypeScript, tested and documented.

The problem
Back-end work is where projects quietly go wrong. The integration works on the developer’s machine, nobody wrote down which environment variables it needs, there is no monitoring, and the first anyone hears about a failure is a customer saying their form never arrived.
Endpoints modelled on the entities your business actually has, versioned so a change does not break the mobile app, and documented in OpenAPI so the next team can read it without reading the source.
CRM, payments, booking, ERP, shipping. Every outbound call has a timeout, a retry policy and a dead-letter path, and every failure produces an alert with enough context to act on. Silent failure is the expensive kind.
Managed Node hosts, containers, serverless functions and traditional VPS boxes all have different constraints — CommonJS versus ESM, cold starts, port binding, filesystem persistence. We build for the target you have rather than handing you something that only runs on a platform you would have to migrate to.
Tools we use
Still deciding
Both are mature, fast and widely deployed. Your team and your hosting decide this more than the languages do.
Headless wins when content feeds more than one front end. For a single website it is usually a downgrade for the people using it.
The three we are called in to fix most often. If any of these describe your current setup, that is the first thing we would change.
One synchronous file read or a heavy JSON parse on a hot path stalls every concurrent request, not just the one doing the work. It looks like a load problem and it is a single line of code.
PHP starts clean on every request; Node does not. A leaked listener or a growing cache survives, and memory climbs until the process is restarted nightly by a cron job nobody documented.
A small application can pull in a thousand transitive packages. Each is code you ship and did not read. Dependency count is a security decision, not a convenience one.
Agreed before we start, so progress is visible in the months before it shows up in revenue.
