Web platforms
Node.js Development
Node.js is where we build the connective tissue: APIs that serve a mobile app and a website from one place, integrations between systems that were never designed to talk, and services that need to push updates the moment something changes.
What we build with it
APIs for apps and front ends
One API serving an iOS app, an Android app and a web front end, so a change to business logic ships once instead of three times. Typically paired with a React Native app or a Next.js front end.
Integrations between systems
ERP, POS, freight, payments, CRM and marketing platforms rarely integrate cleanly on their own. Node services sit between them, translating and reconciling — with retries and visibility when an upstream system is down.
Real-time and event-driven services
Where a page cannot wait for a refresh: live venue data, order and delivery status, notifications. Event-driven services that push the change rather than making the client poll for it.
Serverless on AWS
As an AWS Partner we run Node workloads the way the job warrants — Lambda and serverless APIs where traffic is spiky, long-running services where it is steady, and cost-tuned either way.

Engagement models
How we work
