I will build you a production ready rest API that will not break in production


About this gig
Most cheap APIs work on day one and break on day thirty. No auth, no rate limiting, no idea what happens when traffic spikes and you're left debugging someone else's shortcuts.
I build APIs that stay up. I shipped 112,000 lines of TypeScript solo across six production services, kept 99%+ uptime for a full year on a client platform, and built an AWS Lambda pipeline that cut document processing time by 60%.
What you get:
- Clean RESTful API with Node.js/TypeScript and PostgreSQL
- Authentication and authorization done right
- API documentation your frontend team will actually use
- Error handling, validation, and rate limiting built in
How it works:
1. Message me your idea I'll review your spec for free before you order2. We agree on endpoints and data model
3. I build, test, and document. You get clean code with comments.
Technologies: Node.js, TypeScript, PostgreSQL, Redis, Docker, AWS

FAQ
What do you need from me to start?
A description of what your app does and what data it needs. If you have a spec or wireframes, even better. Not sure? Message me first — I'll review your idea for free.
Do you write tests?
Yes, Standard and Premium include tests. Production code without tests is a liability.
Can you deploy it for me?
Premium includes AWS deployment with monitoring. Or I can hand you clean code with deployment docs.
What if I need changes after delivery?
Revisions are included in every tier. Premium gets 30 days of unlimited revisions.
Why are you more expensive than $10 API gigs?
Because those break in production. You're paying for an API that stays up, with auth, tests, and docs — not just endpoints that return 200 on day one.
