Full-Stack Development

One Team, Complete Ownership

You don’t want to manage three agencies and two freelancers. You want one team that owns the whole thing. From the database schema to the deploy button. From the API design to the mobile app. From the first line of code to the production monitoring dashboard.

That’s us.

Building a product requires expertise across many domains. Backend development. Frontend interfaces. Mobile applications. Database design. Infrastructure and DevOps. Security. Performance. Most companies either hire specialists in each area and struggle to coordinate them, or hire generalists who do everything poorly.

We’re different. We’re senior engineers who have built complete products, many times. We understand how all the pieces fit together. We make tradeoffs across the stack, not just within our specialty. We own the whole system.

Why Full-Stack Development Matters

Software products are systems. The frontend talks to the backend. The backend talks to the database. The database runs on infrastructure. Everything connects. Everything affects everything else.

When you split development across multiple teams or vendors, you create seams. The frontend team builds features the backend can’t support. The backend team designs APIs the frontend can’t use efficiently. The infrastructure team provisions resources without understanding how the application behaves. Everyone optimizes for their piece without understanding the whole.

The result is a product that’s worse than the sum of its parts. Slow because nobody owns performance end-to-end. Buggy because issues fall through the cracks between teams. Expensive because coordination overhead eats your budget.

Having one team own everything changes this. We can optimize across the stack. We can make architectural decisions that consider all the constraints. We can move fast because we don’t need to coordinate with other teams or wait for their availability.

This is how the best products are built. Small teams with complete ownership. That’s what we offer.

What We Build

Backend Systems

APIs that are fast, reliable, and well-designed. Business logic that handles edge cases correctly. Integrations with payment processors, email providers, analytics tools, and third-party services.

We work with Elixir/Phoenix, Node.js, Python, and Go. We choose based on your needs, not our preferences. Real-time features like chat and live updates. Background jobs for heavy processing. Complex workflows that maintain consistency across failures.

We design for scale from the start. Not premature optimization. Sensible architecture that doesn’t paint you into a corner.

Web Applications

Modern frontends that are fast, accessible, and responsive. React, Next.js, Phoenix LiveView. We choose the right tool for the job.

We build interfaces that work. Fast initial loads. Smooth interactions. Proper error handling. Accessibility for users with disabilities. Responsive design that works on every device.

We care about the details. Loading states. Optimistic updates. Offline support when it matters. The polish that separates good products from great ones.

Mobile Apps

React Native for cross-platform when it makes sense. Native development when it doesn’t. We’ve shipped apps that handle thousands of daily active users.

We understand the constraints of mobile. Battery life. Network conditions. App store guidelines. Platform conventions. We build apps that feel native, not web apps wrapped in a mobile shell.

Push notifications. Background sync. Deep linking. Camera access. Biometric authentication. Whatever your product needs.

Database Design

The database is the foundation. Get it wrong, and everything built on top suffers. We design schemas that support your product’s queries efficiently. We write migrations that run safely in production. We optimize queries that are slowing down your application.

PostgreSQL for most things. Redis for caching and real-time features. Specialized databases when the use case demands it. We understand the tradeoffs.

Infrastructure

Your code needs to run somewhere. We set up hosting on AWS, GCP, DigitalOcean, or wherever makes sense for your situation. We configure CI/CD pipelines that deploy on every merge. We set up monitoring and alerting so you know when something’s wrong.

We think about cost optimization from the start. Cloud bills can spiral out of control if you’re not careful. We right-size resources and architect for efficiency.

Security isn’t an afterthought. We follow best practices. We encrypt data. We handle authentication properly. We think about threats before they become breaches.

How We Work

We’re not a body shop. We don’t just write code to spec. We think about your product. We challenge assumptions. We suggest better approaches when we see them. We make technical decisions that serve the business.

You tell us what you’re trying to achieve. We figure out how to build it. We’ll push back if something doesn’t make sense. We’ll propose alternatives when we see better options. We’ll flag risks before they become problems.

We work in tight cycles. Regular demos. Clear communication. You always know what’s happening and why.

We document as we go. Architecture decisions. API contracts. Deployment procedures. When the engagement ends, you’re not dependent on us. Your next team can pick up where we left off.

What’s Included

Technical leadership. We don’t just execute. We help you make good technical decisions. Architecture. Technology choices. Build vs. buy. We’ve made these decisions many times before.

Full-stack implementation. Whatever your product needs. Backend, frontend, mobile, infrastructure. One team handles it all.

Code quality. Clean, well-tested, well-documented code. The kind of codebase that developers enjoy working with.

Production operations. We don’t just build and hand off. We deploy. We monitor. We fix issues when they arise. We own the system end-to-end.

Knowledge transfer. When it’s time for your own team to take over, we make it smooth. Documentation. Walkthroughs. Pair programming with your developers. You’re not left guessing.

When This Makes Sense

Full-stack development is right for you if:

• You need to build a complete product, not just pieces. You have a vision for the whole thing, and you need a team that can execute it.

• You want senior engineers who can own technical decisions. You don’t want to be the technical babysitter. You want people who can figure things out.

• You’d rather focus on the business than manage multiple vendors. Every hour you spend coordinating freelancers is an hour you’re not spending on customers.

• You’re moving fast and can’t afford coordination overhead. You need a team that can make decisions and ship without waiting for approvals.

• You’ve been burned by siloed development before. You’ve seen what happens when frontend and backend don’t talk to each other.
