I will build scalable nodejs express rest apis and microservices


About this gig
I build production-grade backend systems with Node.js and Express not tutorials-grade code. My background includes social platforms, job-board/ATS systems, and notification pipelines using Sequelize, PostgreSQL, Redis, and Bull queues.
What you get: Clean REST API design, proper error handling, authentication (JWT/OAuth), database schema design, and code that scales past your MVP.

FAQ
Can you work with my existing codebase, or only build from scratch?
Yes — I can work with your existing Node.js/Express codebase to debug issues, add features, or refactor. Just share your repo or relevant files in the project requirements.
Do you provide API documentation?
Yes. All packages include basic endpoint documentation. Standard and Premium packages include a Postman collection or Swagger/OpenAPI spec for easier integration on your end.
What database do you work with?
Mainly PostgreSQL and MySQL via Sequelize ORM, plus MongoDB for NoSQL use cases. Let me know your preference in the brief, or I'll recommend one based on your project.
Will you deploy the API, or just hand over the code?
Code delivery is included in every package. Deployment (AWS, DigitalOcean, etc.) can be added — mention it in your requirements and I'll scope it into the order.
How do you handle authentication and security?
I implement JWT or OAuth2 authentication, role-based access control, input validation, and rate limiting where the project calls for it — not just a bare-bones API.
