A Backend Engineer for digital products builds the APIs, business logic and integrations that mobile and web apps depend on. Remote Pro Ai deploys vetted backend engineers in Node.js / NestJS, .NET 8, Spring Boot or FastAPI within 4 working days. They implement authentication, role-based authorisation and audit logging, and integrate payments and notifications behind clean, versioned API contracts.
Your Backend Engineer designs domain services with clean architecture and API contracts, and integrates payments, notifications and third-party services. Typical stack: Node.js / NestJS, .NET 8, Spring Boot, FastAPI and PostgreSQL.
Gulf app programmes are regulation-driven: PDPL, SAMA and CBUAE rules shape how back ends store data, log access and integrate national identity. Teams that treat the back end as plumbing fail audits late. A backend engineer who builds audit logging, consent and data residency in from sprint one keeps release dates intact.

MatchIQ™ is our vetting and matching engine: 3.4% of applicants pass 5 gates. The live assessment for this role tests the 5 capabilities above against a realistic task, not trivia.
Self-serve bookings receive a shortlist within 48 hours and enterprise requests get named candidates within 72 hours. After you approve a profile and sign, your specialist is working within 4 working days, whether the request is on the bench, off-bench or on-site. When fewer than 5 Backend Engineer profiles are on the bench, we shortlist from the wider vetted network in the same 48 hours.
Pricing is quotation-based and depends on level, hours and any on-site, clearance or data-residency needs. Current bands: Mid from USD 4,450/month · Senior from USD 5,850/month · Lead from USD 7,600/month. VAT is shown separately, quotes can be viewed in SAR, AED, USD or EUR, and every quotation is valid for 30 days. The Squad Builder shows your quote instantly.
Remote Pro Ai is contractually responsible for quality. Raise it at any time: a replacement starts within 4 working days; the full handover completes in under 14 days. Your first engagement also begins with a no-bill trial, one per company: 5 working days on self-serve bookings and 10 on enterprise contracts.
This role is offered at Mid, Senior and Lead level. We never place junior profiles. A practice lead confirms each specialist’s level through a live technical assessment and reference checks, so the band on your quotation reflects scope the person has already delivered rather than a job title on a CV.
This role builds app back ends, admin platforms and integration layers for product squads. The Backend Engineer in Cloud & Complex Systems focuses on high-throughput services for banking, telecom and government cores. If your challenge is feature delivery, start here; if it is scale or latency under heavy load, choose the other profile.
Engineers in this practice regularly integrate card and wallet gateways, including mada, Apple Pay and buy-now-pay-later providers, plus push, SMS, WhatsApp and email services. They build idempotent webhooks, retry queues on RabbitMQ or Kafka, and reconciliation jobs, so a failed callback never leaves an order in an unknown state.
Yes. Onboarding covers access, a security induction and your runbook, then your architecture documents, branching model and definition of done. The first sprint usually includes a small, reviewed change merged through your pipeline. Engineers follow your patterns, propose improvements through pull requests and architecture decision records, and avoid rewrites unless you ask for one.
Every service records who accessed what and when in an append-only store, with personal data minimised or masked in logs. Engineers keep encryption keys separate from data, apply retention rules and design deletion paths that satisfy PDPL and GDPR requests. Security review happens at pull-request level, not only before go-live.
