Who this is for
Startup MVPs
Ship fast with a backend that won’t collapse later—auth, core APIs, and scalable data models from day one.
High-Traffic Systems
Caching, rate limits, queues, and scalable infrastructure for products that see spikes, growth, and heavy reads/writes.
Realtime Products
Messaging, notifications, live updates, and activity feeds with proper event design and reliability patterns.
Data-Heavy Workflows
Imports, exports, pipelines, scheduled jobs, and long-running tasks with retries, idempotency, and monitoring.
AI Add-ons
AI add-ons we can integrate
Want an “AI layer” on top of your backend? We can add RAG search, agent tools, and automation workflows as optional modules—built with proper auth, logging, and cost/latency controls.
We design AI integrations as well-bounded services (with evals and safe fallbacks) so your core APIs stay stable and maintainable.
Includes: secure API boundaries + handoff notes + monitoring baseline.

- Async-first updates and written decisions
- Weekly milestone demos and scope control
- Release planning with staged rollouts
- Clear escalation path for blockers
Engagement & Procurement (AU)
We can structure engagements with clear scope, milestones, and invoicing that fits common procurement expectations.
If you need a lightweight vendor onboarding pack, we can provide delivery process notes and security posture summaries.

- Milestone-based billing for fixed-scope work
- Time-and-materials for evolving scope
- Procurement-friendly documentation on request
- Optional paid discovery to de-risk delivery
Security & Quality (APAC)
With APAC teams, async clarity matters: written decisions, stable releases, and test coverage that prevents regressions.
We use performance budgets and release checklists so handoffs stay smooth across timezones.
- CI-friendly testing: unit + integration + smoke tests
- Performance budgets + bundle checks
- Release checklist + rollback plan for production launches
- Security checklist for auth and sensitive data flows
- Observability hooks (logs + error tracking) ready for production
