finds bugs

I already have the full source code and database dump for our production web application and need an experienced back-end developer who can dive straight in. Your focus will be purely server-side: troubleshooting current issues, extending functionality, and ensuring the data layer performs reliably under load.

What you can expect from me
• Immediate access to the repo and database files
• A walkthrough of the current architecture and pain points
• Clear, prioritised tickets for each sprint

What I’m counting on you to deliver
• Clean, well-tested code that slots neatly into the existing codebase
• Thoughtful refactors where they offer real performance or maintainability gains
• Up-to-date documentation for every change you make
• Pull requests that pass our CI pipeline and deploy smoothly to staging

The stack details will be shared once we begin; if you are comfortable working in modern environments such as Node.js, Django or Ruby on Rails you’ll feel right at home.

Acceptance criteria
1. New or modified endpoints return correct data and meet the performance targets we set together.
2. All critical paths are covered by automated tests.
3. No regression errors appear in staging after deployment.
4. Updated README or inline docs clearly explain setup and usage of your additions.

If you thrive on back-end problem solving and can communicate progress clearly, let’s get started.
