API & Real-Time Integrations
REST APIs, WebSockets, third-party integrations, auth flows, and backend communication layers that make product features actually work.
What this covers
Backend interfaces, integrations, realtime features, and the communication layer between product parts
This service is about the product logic behind the interface: REST endpoints, WebSocket flows, auth and session handling, webhook or third-party integrations, and the internal API structure that lets the system grow cleanly.
REST
API layer
WebSockets
Realtime
Auth
Product access
Typical scope
Internal APIs, external integrations, realtime updates, and reliable service boundaries
That can include account systems, dashboards, booking or commerce flows, webhook handling, external platform integrations, realtime features, and backend contracts that keep the frontend and data layers in sync.
Why it matters
A cleaner interface between frontend, backend, and operational systems
When the API layer is designed well, the rest of the product becomes easier to extend, easier to debug, and less likely to turn into a fragile collection of one-off feature decisions.
Supporting stack
Protocols, integrations, sessions, and data flow treated as part of the product architecture
The work may involve REST, WebSockets, GraphQL where it fits, auth and session handling, caching, backend services, third-party APIs, and realtime communication paths that support serious product behavior.
Relevant proof
- App service coverage for API-backed product work
- NativeCharts as the deeper realtime and systems-oriented proof
- Portfolio coverage for APIs, realtime systems, and data support work
- Database and hosting services for the layers supporting the API surface

Need cleaner APIs, integrations, or realtime product behavior?
If the product depends on integrations, backend communication, auth, or realtime features, we can shape the API layer to support growth instead of fighting it.
