Back-end development.

The part nobody sees until it fails. Data models, APIs, jobs and integrations built to hold up under real load, with the boring things — migrations, logging, backups, error paths — treated as part of the job rather than as an afterthought.

01What you get

Everything the engagement includes.

01

Data model & migrations

A schema designed for the domain, with a versioned migration path.

02

API layer

REST or GraphQL endpoints, documented, versioned and typed.

03

Authentication & roles

Sessions, permissions and role-based access appropriate to the product.

04

Third-party integrations

Payments, CRM, shipping, ERP and whatever else the business already runs on.

05

Jobs & scheduling

Queues and background work for anything that must not block a request.

06

Observability

Structured logs, error tracking and the health checks that make an incident short.

02How the build runs

Run in order, every time.

  1. 01

    Scope

    We write down what the thing has to do before we write any of it. Constraints, integrations, edge cases and the definition of done — agreed in writing, not assumed.

  2. 02

    Architect

    Data model, service boundaries, hosting and the deployment path get decided up front. Most of what makes a build expensive later is decided here.

  3. 03

    Build

    Shipped in working increments against a staging environment you can open at any point. No reveal at the end — you watch it come together.

  4. 04

    Harden

    Performance, accessibility, error states, SEO fundamentals and cross-browser behaviour. The unglamorous pass that separates a demo from a product.

  5. 05

    Ship

    Deployment, DNS and email cutover, a CMS walkthrough and the handover documents. The site goes live once dues are cleared, per our terms.

03Stack

What it runs on.

Chosen for maintenance and for your team, not for novelty. Where an existing stack of yours makes more sense, we work in that instead.

  • You do. On written finalisation the final files and full ownership rights transfer to you. Materials generated during revision cycles on the way to the final product are not included — that is set out in our Terms and Conditions.

05Adjacent

Usually bought alongside.

Engineering

Node.js Development

One language across the whole stack, and a runtime that is genuinely good at the thing most products need — many concurrent connections doing very little each. Real-time features, APIs and services, written in TypeScript so the contracts hold.

Engineering

PHP Development

Modern PHP, written the way the language is actually written now — typed, tested, composer-managed and running on a current runtime. Also the pragmatic choice for the enormous amount of the web that already runs on it and needs to keep doing so.

Commerce & Product

Custom Software Development

For the process that is genuinely yours. When a business runs on a spreadsheet nobody dares touch and three tools that do not speak to each other, the fix is usually software shaped like the actual operation rather than another subscription it has to be bent into.
