Node.js is easy to start and easy to get wrong at scale — unhandled promise chains, blocking calls, and connection pools that fall over under real traffic. We staff engineers who've shipped Node backends past the prototype stage.
Connection pooling, queueing, and error handling designed for real traffic, not just a passing demo.
Clean, documented REST or GraphQL endpoints your frontend and mobile teams can build against right away.
Typed services catch integration bugs before they reach staging, which matters most on multi-service backends.
REST or GraphQL services with authentication, validation, and rate limiting.
PostgreSQL, MongoDB, or Redis wired in with sane query and caching patterns.
Payments, auth providers, and other services connected reliably.
Profiling and fixing the bottlenecks that only show up under load.
Its non-blocking I/O model handles high-concurrency workloads well, and sharing JavaScript/TypeScript across frontend and backend speeds up development for small teams.
Not natively — Node is built for I/O-bound work. For CPU-heavy tasks we offload to worker threads or a dedicated service rather than blocking the main event loop.
It depends on scope. We quote a fixed price for a defined deliverable — an API, a service, an integration — rather than an open-ended hourly rate.
