Backend + APIs
We build the systems behind the UI. REST APIs, GraphQL, WebSocket / SSE, background-job processing, integrations with third-party services. Our SaaS line runs ~50 production endpoints in Rails (Outsourcing, Finance) and Node/TypeScript (HRS, Logistics, Leads, CMS) — same stack we recommend.
Конкретни резултати
- REST + GraphQL APIs — versioned, documented (OpenAPI), authenticated (OAuth2, JWT, API key).
- Background-job pipelines — Sidekiq, BullMQ, Celery; cron + scheduled jobs.
- Real-time features — WebSocket, Server-Sent Events, pub/sub via Redis or Kafka.
- Third-party integrations — Stripe, SendGrid, Twilio, DocuSign, Salesforce, HubSpot, Airtable.
- Webhook handling + retry — idempotency keys, dead-letter queues, replay tooling.
- Migrations — language migrations (Rails → Go, PHP → Node), framework upgrades (Rails 5→7, Node LTS), database migrations (MySQL → Postgres).

Како работиме
Discovery (1 week)
API contract design, data model, third-party integration mapping. Output: OpenAPI spec + ERD diagram.
Schema + scaffolding (1 week)
Database migrations, model layer, seed data, base auth. Nothing exposed to the world yet — but the foundation is testable.
Build endpoints (3-8 weeks)
Route by route, with tests. Sequence by dependency: read-only first, writes second, integrations third.
Production hardening
Rate limiting, observability, log aggregation, on-call runbooks. Postman/Bruno integration test suite for ongoing health checks.

Често поставувани прашања — Backend + APIs
Rails vs. Node vs. Go — what do you recommend?
Default: Node + TypeScript for new projects under a 5-person team. Rails when you want maximum convention + speed-of-build for CRUD apps. Go when latency matters + your team already runs Go. We don't push a stack — we pick what fits your team.
Do you write tests?
Yes — the kind you can actually maintain. Unit tests for pure logic, integration tests for the API surface, end-to-end tests sparingly. Coverage isn't a goal; correctness is.
Database — Postgres or something else?
Postgres is the default. MySQL when you've inherited it. Mongo for genuinely document-shaped data (rare). DynamoDB / Cassandra when you've outgrown Postgres scale (very rare for most clients).
Idempotency for webhooks?
Yes — every webhook handler we write is idempotent. We assume the sender will retry (because they will). Dead-letter queue for failures, replay tool to reprocess.
Background jobs — what stack?
Sidekiq for Rails. BullMQ for Node. Celery for Python. We don't recommend reinventing — these are mature.
GraphQL or REST?
REST by default — simpler to debug, cache, and rate-limit. GraphQL when the client team specifically needs it (deeply nested reads with strict typing). We won't push GraphQL just to have it.
How do you handle long-running operations?
Background job with status polling endpoint, or webhook callback when complete. We avoid keeping HTTP requests open longer than 30 seconds.
What about gRPC?
Used internally between services where latency matters (e.g. our PDF service does gRPC under high load). Rarely exposed externally — REST is friendlier for clients.
