I will develop rest api, graphql api and third party api integration


About this gig
I build APIs other developers can actually work with, and connect systems never designed to talk to each other.
10 years of enterprise integration - banking platforms, healthcare systems, IoT device data, BI tools and compliance software.
WHAT I BUILD
- REST API development, versioned and documented
- GraphQL API design and implementation
- Third-party API integration of any service
- Payment gateway integration: Stripe, PayPal
- CRM, ERP and marketing tool integrations
- Webhook handling with retries and idempotency
- Authentication: OAuth2, JWT, API keys, RBAC
- Rate limiting, caching and pagination
- API migration, versioning and deprecation
- OpenAPI and Swagger documentation
INTEGRATION IS MOSTLY EDGE CASES
The happy path takes a day. The timeout, the duplicate webhook, the partial failure and the schema change take skill. I build for those first.

FAQ
REST or GraphQL?
REST for straightforward resource APIs and public interfaces. GraphQL when clients need flexible queries or you're serving many different front-ends. I'll recommend based on who's consuming it.
Can you integrate with a service you haven't used before?
Almost always. If it has documentation, I can integrate it. Ten years of enterprise integration means the patterns transfer even when the specific vendor is new.
What about a legacy system with no API?
Often still possible through the database, a file interface or a scriptable layer. I've wrapped plenty of systems that were never meant to be integrated. Send me the details and I'll tell you honestly.
Do you handle authentication and security?
Yes. OAuth2, JWT, API keys, role-based access, rate limiting. I've built to banking-grade security requirements.
Will the API be documented?
Standard and Premium include OpenAPI and Swagger documentation. An undocumented API is an API your team will rebuild in two years.
