Hire Backend Developer FAQ

Backend developer or full stack developer: which do I need?

If someone else already builds your screens, or the work is mostly data, integrations and APIs, a backend developer. If one person should handle both, a full stack developer. Tell us the work and we'll suggest the mix.

Can they connect our systems?

Yes. Payment, CRM, accounting and shipping tools all have APIs. Connecting them so data moves without copy-paste is everyday backend work.

Can they work on our existing code?

Yes. In the first week they read your code, set it up and start with small fixes, then move on to features.
