Vivek Mangukiya
Remote backend developer · India
I build and maintain Node.js and TypeScript backends for teams across India — Bengaluru, Mumbai, Pune, Delhi NCR, Hyderabad and beyond — working remotely in IST with written, async-friendly communication.
Why me
Remote backend work succeeds or fails on communication as much as code.
Over 3+ years I've shipped REST APIs, data models, authentication, payment flows and reporting for booking, billing, donation, inventory and e-commerce products. The common thread: systems that real staff and customers use every day, where a bad deploy is noticed immediately.
Working with a team in another city works best when everything important is written down. I keep API contracts documented, pull requests small and explained, and progress visible — so you don't need a daily call to know where things stand.
Same working hours as your team, wherever in India you are — no waiting overnight for answers.
Clear PR descriptions, written decisions and documented endpoints that make reviews quick and onboarding easy.
Razorpay integrations, GST-aware billing and PDF invoices — the details Indian products need.
Your Git flow, your code review, your tracker, your CI — I adapt to how your team already works.
Services
Whether you need a whole backend or an extra pair of hands on an existing one.
REST APIs with authentication, role-based access, pagination and consistent errors that frontend and app developers can rely on.
A pragmatic Node.js and TypeScript backend that gets you to launch quickly without boxing you in as you grow.
Gradually moving a JavaScript codebase to TypeScript, untangling modules and adding the structure needed to keep shipping.
Razorpay and international gateways, transactional email via providers like MailGun, PDF invoices and receipts.
PostgreSQL, MongoDB or MySQL schemas, indexes and queries tuned for the reports and screens that actually get used.
Dockerised services and production-ready configuration so environments behave the same everywhere.
Selected work
Each one handles real money, real bookings or real stock — the kind of backend where correctness matters.
Booking & CRM platform
Booking and CRM system for events, venues, staff, packages, leads and customer bookings — with availability checks and automated emails.
Billing & inventory
Billing and inventory platform with GST, multi-currency invoices, stock sync, Razorpay payments, PDF invoices and Excel reports.
Donation CRM
Donor CRM for collections, receipts, campaigns and staff roles — with Razorpay payments and reporting for day-to-day operations.
Process
A predictable rhythm, minimal meetings, everything in writing.
A 30–45 minute video call to understand the product, the current codebase and what success looks like.
Repository, environments and tracker access; I read the code and share early observations in writing.
Regular, reviewable PRs with tests where they matter and notes on anything that changes behaviour.
What shipped, what's next and any decisions you need to make — readable in two minutes.
