Backend Work Is Waiting on a Hire

Backend developers for hire are easy to find. One who owns a stream without hand-holding is not.

One Stream, One Task at a Time

Your team ranks a shared task board. I take the top task and ship it as a pull request.

Already Shipped, Still Running

Backend work, each one written up in public.

Who It's For

Teams with a Node.js backend and a stream that needs an owner.

Right For

Better Elsewhere

How It Works

A simple, predictable and transparent process that eliminates development headaches.

1

Your dedicated task board opens, and I join your repo and team chat.

2

Setup

I run the service locally and map the data model, the integrations and what is load-bearing.

3

Plan & Develop

You rank the board. Week one is one small task, so you judge real work in your own review.

4

Review & Refine

I open a pull request that says why, and revise until you're satisfied.

5

Progress

Done means deployed, not merged. Then the next task.

6

Maintain

You report issues anytime. Bugs and incidents in my stream go first.

FAQ

$997/week, flat, for one senior on one stream. No hourly rate. Market rates, compared.

Node.js development services usually mean a team you manage. Here one senior owns the stream: API integrations and webhooks, migrations and upgrades, reliability and cloud cost.

A developer first: advice comes with the pull request that acts on it. A second opinion before any code is a separate architecture audit.

Yes: your repo, branch rules, reviews and CI. A written update follows every session, so nobody waits for a standup.

About 72 hours per task on average, with one in progress at a time.

I revise until you're satisfied. If it still isn't working, cancel with no penalty.

It's yours from day one, with the cloud accounts and keys. Decisions live in the repo, so the next developer reads instead of reverse engineering.

Yes: years on product teams, the last as team lead. One piece: a release flow cut from 16 manual actions to 1 Slack command.

Fill in the project form, about a minute. I reply the next working day; if it fits, with a first plan and a call invite.
