Node.js
Our go-to runtime for fast, scalable APIs, real-time features, and the backends behind modern web and mobile products.
What we do
Why we reach for Node.js
Node.js is a JavaScript runtime built on Chrome’s V8 engine, with non-blocking I/O that makes it excellent for scalable network applications. It lets us share a single language across frontend and backend and handle thousands of concurrent connections. That’s why we reach for it on:
- API servers and microservices
- Real-time features
- The backends behind single-page and mobile apps
How we build it
Our Node.js work is TypeScript-first for production reliability. The working set:
- Frameworks: Express and NestJS
- Type-safe data access: Prisma or TypeORM
- Real-time: Socket.io where live communication is needed
We design stateless services that scale horizontally, with caching, connection pooling, and message queues for async processing. Quality stays high with Jest testing, structured logging, and observability.
Proof it holds up
This is the kind of backend work that keeps products reliable as they grow:
- The Farmer’s Dog: we modernized backend workflows so they held up through peak-demand spikes.
- BetterUp: we supported the platform as it scaled to large enterprise accounts.
Resilient services and clean integrations that make growth possible.
Build it with a senior team.
We'll scope it in an AI Discovery Sprint: clarity before commitment.
