Backend hiring is just one part of the equation — we stay for the long haul

At KPS, we don’t just connect you with backend developers and call it a day. We stay involved to make sure everything — from onboarding to ongoing delivery — runs smoothly. With years of experience across industries, we’ve fine-tuned every step to support long-term outcomes and sustainable engineering growth inside your team.

01

Up-to-date talent tracking

We constantly monitor backend developer availability, salary trends, and skill shifts — so when your hiring goals change, we already have the context to guide your next move. Whether you're scaling a team or adjusting to new product demands, we help you adapt faster with accurate, real-time recommendations.

02

Context-based vetting

Our evaluation goes deeper than LinkedIn profiles. We assess how candidates think, communicate, and collaborate. You don’t just get someone who ticks technical boxes — you get backend developers who’ve worked with real product teams and know how to deliver under pressure.

03

CTO support early on

From the start, our CTO joins your project discovery to help define the backend skill sets, architecture fit, and team dynamics needed for success. That means no guesswork — just clear direction on who can truly support your system’s growth.

04

Flexible developer matching

We don’t believe in generic hiring pipelines. Every backend developer we recommend is selected based on your stack, business model, and velocity. If your developer and business needs shift mid-project, we adapt — fast — and make sure you’re never left without the right support.

05

Full-cycle HR

KPS takes care of offers, documentation, onboarding, and check-ins. We stay in sync with both you and the developer to ensure a stable relationship. No unexpected delays, no last-minute confusion — just smooth transitions from day one.

06

Transparent pricing

Our pricing model is fully transparent. You'll see a breakdown of developer hours and a separate line for admin costs. No surprises — just a clean overview of where your money goes and what value you're getting back.

Hire backend developer with KPS — What sets our engineers apart

Need support building a backend that’s modular, reliable, and won’t crack under pressure? KPS helps you hire back-end developers who turn tough specs into stable code — from scalable APIs to real-time data flows. They think in systems, write clean logic, and support your business as it evolves.

Architectural thinking

Our backend developers understand system architecture at scale. Whether it’s microservices or monoliths, they design solutions that prioritize stability, fault tolerance, and future extensibility — not just short-term wins.

Efficiency under pressure

KPS backend engineers handle spikes in traffic, urgent releases, and critical issues without losing clarity. They know how to debug quickly, ship hotfixes responsibly, and keep production environments clean.

Ownership-first mindset

No hand-holding. Our developers take responsibility for their systems — from deployment pipelines to logs and performance metrics. They don’t just write code; they maintain, improve, and support it in the real world.

Process-aligned delivery

KPS developers fit into your workflow — whether you work in sprints, Kanban, or shape-up. They handle async reviews, CI/CD pipelines, and cross-team coordination without creating friction.

Find backend developer who knows how to build stable, scalable systems that grow with your product

Your backend architecture isn’t just a tech layer — it’s the core of your product’s performance, security, and long-term adaptability. At KPS, we help you hire a backend developer who understands the bigger picture: how to translate business requirements into maintainable, efficient systems that stand the test of scale and complexity.

Custom API development

Design secure, modular APIs tailored to your application logic and third-party integrations. Our developers create clean, well-documented interfaces that scale without creating bottlenecks.

Data-heavy platforms

Structure and optimize high-volume data platforms that handle processing, aggregation, and querying with speed and accuracy. Ideal for analytics-heavy tools or systems that rely on real-time insights.

eCommerce backends

Build feature-rich eCommerce backends that cover everything from product management to payments and shipping. We prioritize performance, redundancy, and compliance with payment standards.

Admin dashboards

Develop backend systems that support complex admin panels — with role-based access control, audit trails, and real-time data monitoring features that empower your operations team.

Real-time applications

Create the backend logic and infrastructure needed to support live updates, notifications, and interactions — using WebSockets, server events, or polling depending on your product needs.

Workflow automation

Implement logic for automating internal business processes, order routing, approval flows, or external syncs. Our developers make sure each workflow runs securely and predictably.

Secure user authentication

Set up authentication flows with OAuth2, SSO, multi-factor login, or custom logic — ensuring data integrity and user trust without compromising user experience.

System integrations

Connect CRMs, ERPs, third-party services, or internal tools via stable backend integrations that preserve performance and ensure long-term maintainability.
