02 First assignments

Work you can hand over to a Node.js developer

These are typical first assignments for a Node.js developer joining your team. If your backlog looks like one of them, it makes a good first brief.

Typical first work

  1. The backend for a Flutter or React Native app that needs new endpoints every sprint.
  2. Real-time features: chat, live order or vehicle tracking, and notifications.
  3. A backend-for-frontend service for a React web app.
  4. Slow APIs that need profiling, caching and database tuning.
  5. Breaking parts of an older monolith out into separate services.

03 What to check

What to check in dedicated Node.js programmers

Hold any Node.js CV against these seven areas, ours included. An engineer who will own your backend needs all of them, not just endpoints.

The hiring steps every role shares are on the hire hub.

Node.js with TypeScript
Typed, readable server code that the rest of your team can review.
A framework, used well
Express or NestJS, laid out so routes, services and data access stay separate as the API grows.
Event loop and performance
Knowing what blocks the event loop, and profiling a slow endpoint to find the real cause.
REST, GraphQL and WebSockets
Clear API contracts for your apps, and live connections for chat, tracking and notifications.
Databases and caching
PostgreSQL or MongoDB modelled for the queries the product runs, with Redis where caching pays.
Queues and background work
Jobs that run outside a request, such as emails, exports and retries, and serverless functions where they fit.
Tests, CI/CD and monitoring
Tests that run before every deploy, a CI/CD pipeline, and logs and metrics that show a problem before users report it.

04 Integrations

Integrations our Node.js expert developers wire up

Most products lean on a few outside services, and wiring them into the backend is everyday Node.js work. These are the four groups buyers ask about most: payments, messaging, CRM and maps.

  1. 01

    Payments

    Checkout, subscriptions and refunds through your payment gateway, with webhooks verified and failed calls retried.

  2. 02

    Messaging: email and WhatsApp

    Transactional email and WhatsApp messages through the provider you choose, with delivery status tracked.

  3. 03

    CRM

    Leads and customer records synced with your CRM through its API.

  4. 04

    Maps

    Address search, geocoding and distance or route calculation through your maps provider.

Wiring a provider into the backend rather than the app keeps its keys on the server, and lets you change provider without shipping a new app release.

06 FAQ

Questions about hiring Node.js developers.

Do your Node.js developers work in TypeScript?
Yes. We write Node.js in TypeScript by default, so the code is typed and easier for your team to review.
Which Node.js frameworks do your developers use?
Express and NestJS, chosen to fit your API and your team.
Can the developer take over our existing Node.js backend?
Yes. A Node.js developer can take over and extend your backend, starting with a code review in the first week to agree what to fix first.
Can a Node.js developer integrate payments, maps and third-party services?
Yes: integrations with payment gateways, maps, messaging and CRMs are routine Node.js work.
How do you keep our backend secure?
Every change is code-reviewed, secrets stay out of code and repositories, and access is limited to the people who need it. Production runs in cloud accounts you own where possible.
Can I hire one React and Node developer for both the app and the API?
One team can cover a React Native app and its Node.js backend: start from the React Native hire page, and ask for full-stack profiles when you share your brief.

07 Request profiles

What should you send when you request Node.js developer profiles?

Send four things, and we can match a Node.js developer to your backend on the first pass.

  • The system: what the backend does, and the apps that call it.
  • The API docs: or a short tour of the codebase.
  • The backlog: the endpoints, fixes and performance work coming up.
  • The integrations: the payment, messaging, CRM or maps services involved.
