I will build a fastapi backend with postgresql database for your app


About this gig
Need a fast, reliable backend for your app or startup? I build production-ready APIs using FastAPI and PostgreSQL the same stack I use daily as a backend engineer processing 200-300 million records a week in production.
WHAT YOU GET:
RESTful API built with FastAPI (Python)
PostgreSQL database design proper schemas, indexes, relationships, constraints
SQLAlchemy ORM setup for clean, maintainable code
Authentication (JWT, OAuth, or your preferred method)
Dockerized for easy deployment anywhere
API documentation (auto-generated with FastAPI's built-in Swagger UI)
Clean, commented, production-quality code not tutorial-level throwaway scripts
WHO THIS IS FOR:
- Startup founders who need an MVP backend fast
- Businesses replacing a slow or messy existing API
- Developers who need backend help while they focus on frontend
- Anyone who needs a database that won't fall over as they scale
MY BACKGROUND:
I'm a backend engineer working in production environments, currently designing PostgreSQL schemas handling 1.2TB+ of data. I also architect FastAPI services handling thousands of requests a day for a leading fraud-prevention company.

FAQ
Q: Do I need to already have my project planned out before ordering?
No — send me a message first with a rough idea of what you're building (even just a few bullet points) and I'll help you scope exactly what endpoints and database tables you'll need before you order.
Q: What information do you need from me to get started?
A description of your app/project, what data you need to store, and any specific features you need (auth, payments, third-party integrations, etc.). I'll ask follow-up questions if anything's unclear.
Q: Can you deploy the backend for me, or do I have to do that myself?
Deployment guidance is included starting at the Standard package. I primarily work with GCP and Docker-based deployments, and can walk you through hosting options for AWS as well.
Q: What if my project needs more endpoints or tables than my package includes?
No problem — just message me with your full requirements before ordering and I'll send you a custom quote so there are no surprises mid-project.
Q: Do I own the code once it's delivered?
Yes, 100%. All source code is yours with no licensing restrictions once the project is complete.
Can you integrate third-party services like Stripe, Twilio, or OpenAI?
Yes — I've built Stripe subscription billing with webhooks, GPT-powered features, and other API integrations. Message me with the specific service and I'll confirm scope/pricing.
Do you write tests for the code?
Basic error handling is included in every package. Automated test coverage (pytest) can be added as a custom add-on — just ask.
What's your experience level?
I'm a backend engineer currently working in production, designing PostgreSQL systems handling tons of data and building FastAPI services serving thousands of requests daily. This isn't tutorial-project work — it's the same stack and practices I use professionally.
How do revisions work?
Each package includes a set number of revisions for adjustments within the original scope. Requests outside the original scope (new features, major changes) are treated as a new add-on and quoted separately.
Can we hop on a call before I order?
Yes — message me and I'm happy to do a quick chat to make sure I understand your project before you commit to a package.
