We areNode.jsengineers

We combine modern runtimes with pragmatic architecture: clear modules, observability and automated tests – so your backend stays stable under load.

  • REST & GraphQL APIs, WebSockets and message queues
  • Authentication, rate limits and security best practices
  • Containers, CI/CD and cloud-native operations
  • Monitoring, logging and performance tuning

Event-driven, non-blocking I/O

Node.js's single-threaded event loop handles many concurrent connections efficiently – ideal for APIs, streaming and real-time signals without thread explosion.

JavaScript/TypeScript end-to-end

A unified language between frontend and backend shortens onboarding, simplifies type sharing and reduces context switching in product teams.

V8 & npm ecosystem

The V8 engine delivers heavily optimised JIT performance; millions of npm packages accelerate auth, validation, database clients and observability.

Scaling & microservices

Small, focused services can be deployed and scaled independently – Node.js is a preferred stack for gateways, BFFs and asynchronous workers.

Services &solutions

We design and implement Node.js backends that fit your landscape – from greenfield to legacy integration.

  • API design, OpenAPI/Swagger and versioning strategies
  • Integration with ERP, commerce, CRM and event bus
  • Caching with Redis, queueing and resilient background jobs
  • Hardening, load tests and runtime monitoring in production

Real-time & high concurrency

Chat, live updates, gaming backends or IoT ingest: WebSockets and streams in Node.js keep latency low when many clients connect at once.

BFF and integration hub

A backend-for-frontend bundles calls to many systems, normalises errors and offloads mobile or web clients – Node.js is excellent as a lean orchestration layer.

Frequently asked questions about Node.js

When is Node.js the right choice for our backend?
Node.js shines wherever many concurrent connections and I/O-heavy work are central: APIs, integration layers, real-time features over WebSockets and event-driven services. We reach for it especially when your backend needs to reliably power Shopware, mobile apps and web frontends from one place. For compute-heavy processing with long CPU-bound tasks, though, it isn't the ideal fit.
How do you approach building a Node.js backend?
We combine modern runtimes with pragmatic architecture: clear modules, observability and automated tests so your backend stays stable under load. We typically build in TypeScript, define API contracts via OpenAPI/Swagger and set authentication, rate limits and security best practices early. The result is a service that stays maintainable and easy to reason about.
How do you integrate Node.js with our existing systems?
We use Node.js to build the integration layer that connects your existing systems rather than replacing them. To do that we wire up ERP, commerce, CRM and an event bus through REST and GraphQL APIs, WebSockets and message queues. For resilient background jobs we add caching and queueing with Redis, so traffic spikes are absorbed and failures retried cleanly.
What does a Node.js project typically cost or take?
Quoting a flat number would be misleading, because effort and timeline depend heavily on scope. The main cost drivers are the number and complexity of integrations, your real-time and throughput requirements, and how much security, testing and monitoring you need. We estimate this after a short look at your systems and goals and work in manageable increments rather than one big bang.
Who operates and maintains the Node.js backend after launch?
We deliver Node.js services cloud-native: in containers, with CI/CD and with monitoring, logging and performance tuning built in from the start. Before go-live we harden the system and run load tests, and afterwards we watch its runtime behaviour in production. We can take on operations ourselves or enable your team to do so with runbooks and clean observability.
