What Our Backend Developers Build for You

From APIs and databases through microservices to cloud deployment, one team can cover every layer your product needs.

Custom APIs and Backend Services

REST and GraphQL APIs in Node.js or Python, designed around how your product and partners actually consume data, with versioning, authentication and rate limiting built in from day one.

Database Design and Data Layer

Schemas designed before code, because a weak data model is the costliest thing to fix later. PostgreSQL, MySQL, MongoDB or Redis, chosen for the data and indexed to stay fast under real load.

Scalable and Microservices Architecture

A clean modular monolith first, microservices only when traffic or team size justifies it, with message queues, horizontal scaling and stateless services so the system grows without a rebuild.

AI and Data Backends

Production AI backends with Python and FastAPI for model serving and RAG pipelines, a Node.js gateway for real-time and auth, and vector databases, all handled with GDPR-compliant data flows.

Authentication, Security and Compliance

Authentication, encryption and audit logging are designed into the architecture, with GDPR and AVG-compliant data flows for EU clients and HIPAA-grade practices for healthcare.

Cloud, DevOps and Infrastructure

Deployment on AWS or Google Cloud with CI/CD, containers, monitoring and autoscaling, so the backend is reliable in production and cheap to run, not just working on a laptop.

Integrations and Third-Party APIs

Payment, CRM, messaging and analytics integrations, plus webhooks and event-driven flows, are wired in cleanly and documented so other teams can build against them.

Frontend and App Development

A backend needs something in front of it. Our backend developers sit beside frontend and mobile engineers, so the API and the interface grow together and one team owns the whole product.

Hire in Five Simple Steps

From first call to first commit, a clear path with no surprises.

01

Share Requirements

Within days

Tell us the backend skills you need, the project scope and your preferred engagement model. Share your existing stack so we match the right backend engineer.

02

Review Profiles

48 hours

We shortlist two or three pre-vetted backend developers who have shipped production systems on your kind of requirement. Each profile shows past work, code samples and a skill breakdown.

03

Interview

Your control

Run your own technical interview on API design, database modelling and system architecture. Ask about real systems they have shipped to production.

04

Onboard

Day one

Your developer gets repository access, joins your channels and starts reviewing the codebase within 48 hours of signing.

05

Build

Full visibility

Code is pushed to your repository from day one, with daily standups, weekly demos and full visibility through your own project tools.

Why Hire Backend Developers from Mobilions

What separates our backend developers from freelancers and other agencies.

Pre-Vetted Backend Engineers

Every backend developer we put forward has passed a technical screen on API design, databases, system architecture and code review. Fewer than five in a hundred applicants make it through, and only those with real production experience ever reach a client.

Start Within 48 Hours

Skip the weeks of recruitment. You share what you need, interview a small shortlist, and your engineer is writing code within two business days. Most platforms still have you waiting one to three weeks at that point.

Flexible Engagement Models

Full-time, part-time or project-based. Scale up when a deadline approaches, scale down when a sprint is quiet. No long lock-in contracts required.

AI-Accelerated Development

AI-assisted coding compresses timelines. It scaffolds initial structures from specifications, then your developer reviews, refines and takes it to production quality, faster delivery without cutting corners on architecture or security.

Full-Stack Support When You Need It

Need a frontend alongside the backend? The same team provides React and Next.js engineers. Need mobile too? Same team. One partner for the whole product instead of coordinating three agencies.

Your Code, Your Repository

The code is yours from the first commit, pushed to your own repository every day, documentation and all. We sign an NDA before any work starts and the IP is fully yours, so the day you decide to move on, everything comes with you.

Build Intelligent Solutions With the Right Stack

From AI architecture to cloud deployment — design, engineering and infrastructure handled by one team. No coordination overhead, no gaps in quality.

What Our Clients Say About Us

Real feedback from real clients. Here is what businesses say about working with Mobilions on their mobile and web products.

Alexander
Alexander
Netherlands

It was a wonderful experience working with Tushar, Ankit, and their team. They built a great mobile app for me and truly brought my vision to life. What stood out was not just their technical skill but their attitude: always positive, solution-oriented, and incredibly patient. They went above and beyond at every step, finding creative workarounds and staying committed even when things got challenging. Extremely professional and trustworthy. I would absolutely hire them again.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about hiring backend developers from Mobilions.

Hiring a dedicated backend developer in the Netherlands typically costs between EUR 6,000 and EUR 11,000 per month for a full-time senior engineer in 2026, with day rates roughly between EUR 450 and EUR 650. The exact figure depends on seniority and engagement model. We share clear pricing for the model you choose before anything starts, with no hidden recruitment fees.

In about 48 hours from signing. You send your requirements, we put two or three pre-vetted Node.js or Python engineers in front of you, and once you have interviewed and chosen, that developer is in your codebase within two business days. Most platforms are still scheduling calls a week or two later.

Then we fix it, fast. If a developer is not the right match, we swap them at no extra cost, and because the engagement is flexible, you are never tied into a long contract. Our acceptance rate sits below five per cent precisely, so a bad fit is rare to begin with.

This is one of the real upsides for Dutch and EU clients. Our European base sits in Amstelveen, just outside Amsterdam, so your developer shares the CET working day with you, standups happen at a normal hour, and there is a local point of contact instead of a team half a world out of sync.

It depends on the workload, and many teams use both. Node.js suits real-time features, API gateways and JavaScript-heavy products, while Python with FastAPI or Django fits AI, data and machine-learning work. We help you pick, and a common modern pattern is Python for the AI layer with a Node.js gateway in front.

Yes, security and GDPR are designed in, not bolted on. Our backend engineers build authentication, encryption, audit logging and AVG-compliant data flows as standard, with HIPAA-grade practice for healthcare. Our Amstelveen base means EU compliance is the baseline, not an afterthought.

Easily. Start with one engineer, add more as a deadline looms, then scale back when things quieten down. Full-time, part-time or project-based, with no long lock-in, so the team size follows your actual workload rather than a contract.

Yes, that is a common setup. Our backend engineers slot into your workflow, build the APIs your frontend or app consumes, and if you need frontend or mobile support too, the same team can provide it, so nothing falls between the gaps.

You do, completely and from day one. Code is pushed to your repository daily, an NDA is signed before work begins, and intellectual property transfers fully to you. If you ever move on, the entire codebase and its documentation go with you.

Both. Alongside backend developers, we provide frontend, cloud and mobile engineers from the same team, so you can run a whole product through one partner instead of stitching together separate agencies.
