Backend Developer: what this role brings to your project

A Backend Developer builds the server-side logic of an application: APIs, services, integrations, databases and the architecture that keeps the product running under load. At Shakers we connect companies with vetted Backend Developers who work project-based and embedded in blended human + agent teams, to speed up the delivery of reliable software without the fixed cost of an in-house hire or the lock-in of a consultancy.

Talk to our team
What technologies does a Shakers Backend Developer master?
Depending on the project: Node.js, Python, Java or Go, REST and GraphQL APIs, SQL and NoSQL databases, and deployment with Docker, Kubernetes and the cloud. We filter by your specific stack.
How long does matching take?
Usually days. We match your project with the best-fit vetted talent and introduce the candidate so you can confirm the technical fit.
How do you guarantee quality?
All talent goes through a peer review process before joining the collective. On top of that, the project-based model aligns incentives with the outcome.
How much does a Backend Developer cost per project?
It varies with seniority and scope. The bands run from junior to lead; we give you a project estimate before you start, with no overhead costs.
How much does it cost to work with a Backend Developer on Shakers?
It is set on a project basis, based on seniority and scope, with reference ranges from 250 to 700 EUR/day. You pay nothing until the specialist starts.
Why Shakers over an agency or an in-house hire?
Compared with an agency, you start in days with verified talent and project-based pricing. Compared with an in-house hire, you save months of recruitment and fixed payroll costs.
When to bring in a Backend Developer

When you need to build or scale server-side logic: APIs, integrations, queues, databases and the architecture that keeps the product running under load. Also to reinforce a team for a specific phase without committing to a permanent hire.

What a Backend Developer must prove to you

Strength in at least one ecosystem (Node, Python, Java or Go), solid REST/GraphQL API design, sound judgment with data (SQL and NoSQL) and deployment practices with Docker/Kubernetes. Beyond the language, what matters is how they reason about reliability, security and cost.

How it changes with seniority

A junior handles scoped tasks; a senior designs the architecture and anticipates bottlenecks; a lead aligns the backend with the business and the rest of the team. We match the profile to the real scope of your project.
