Backend Engineering
Infrastructure that staysboring under load.
We design and operate the services behind growth platforms: typed APIs, event pipelines, queue architecture, caching strategy and observability — provisioned as code and documented for the team that inherits it.

What you get
Scalable Backend Systems
Domain Modelling
Schema design, migration strategy and data contracts agreed before code is written.
API Layer
REST or GraphQL with authentication, rate limiting, versioning and generated SDKs.
Event Pipelines
Queues, retries, idempotency keys and dead-letter handling for every async path.
Observability
Structured logs, distributed traces, alerting thresholds and on-call runbooks.
How we run it
The six-phase Augencia execution system.
Architecture
Load profile, data model and failure modes defined up front.
Implementation
Typed services with contract tests and CI-enforced coverage gates.
Hardening
Load testing, chaos drills and security review before production traffic.
Operate
Dashboards, alerting and a documented handover to your engineers.
Frequently asked
Scalable Backend Systems
APIs, data models and infrastructure that survive real traffic.
Book a strategy callYes. Most engagements start as an audit plus incremental refactor rather than a rewrite, so delivery never stops.
AWS, Google Cloud, Azure, Vercel, Supabase and Cloudflare — all provisioned as infrastructure-as-code.
A written diagnosis lands within 48 working hours. A first production sprint is typically two to six weeks depending on integrations. Retainers cover optimisation after the first workflow is live.
Yes. Most programmes sit beside an in-house team. You keep the accounts, code and data. Augencia owns the system design, the first production cut and the measurement model.
We do not publish a one-size price. Scoped work in this line typically starts in the £10,000–£25,000 range for a first production workflow, with retainers for ongoing operation. You receive a number after the diagnosis.
