Node.js Development

Node.js backends for product APIs, webhooks, and workers—typed, validated, and observable.

Problems this work usually addresses

  • Webhook handlers that fail quietly
  • Unvalidated payloads corrupting data
  • Cron jobs without ownership

Who benefits most

Teams that need reliable APIs and integrations beside a TypeScript frontend.

Typical outcomes

  • Clean API boundaries
  • Background jobs and integrations
  • Secure auth and validation

Technical approach

01

Discovery

Contract design and error taxonomy before endpoints proliferate.

02

Design & architecture

Handlers stay thin; domain services own rules; jobs are idempotent.

03

Build, test, and handoff

We add structured logging and health checks as part of done.

Architecture considerations

HTTP API + worker processes. Shared schema packages. Outbox patterns when dual writes are risky.

Security

Auth middleware, rate limits, and careful webhook signature verification.

Scaling

Horizontal workers with concurrency caps. Connection pooling for databases.

Frequently asked questions

NestJS or lighter frameworks?

Nest when the team wants structure and DI. Lighter stacks when the surface area is small and speed matters. We match the team, not a dogma.
