Tech Stack · Back-end

Node.js for fast, JavaScript-native back-ends.

TypeScript runtime, Express, NestJS, serverless and event-driven services on a shared language with the front-end.

Why we use it

Node.js is the default when the front-end is JavaScript and the team wants one language across the stack. The runtime is fast for I/O-heavy workloads, the package ecosystem is enormous, and shared TypeScript types between client and server remove a whole class of bugs before they reach production.

What we build with it

Production APIs, real-time services, webhooks, integrations and serverless functions. We use Express or Fastify for lean services, NestJS where the application is large enough to benefit from structure, and Cloud Functions or Lambda where serverless is the right shape. Postgres, Redis and queues sit alongside as the workload demands.

How we work with it

Strict TypeScript end-to-end, layered architecture that keeps business logic out of HTTP handlers, automated tests on the contracts that matter, and observability — logs, metrics, traces — wired in from day one. The result is a back-end your team can extend without surprises and replace one piece at a time when the time comes.
