API Developer Skills API Design Patterns Design a good API Good API means that API is operational, expressive, simple, and predictable.  The API system is operational when it performs the tasks users actually want, supported by non-operational features like latency (e.g., the core task should take a few milliseconds, not minutes) and accuracy (e.g., the output should be as expected). The API system is expressive when it lets developers specify goals using self-documenting interfaces, like  "orders.filter(status=PAID)" instead of specifying instructions on how to achieve this like "orders.get(3, true)". It relies on  abstractions, like "loan.apply(amount=5000, term=12)", that mirror real-world workflows and incorporate business terminology financial teams use when discussing loans. So there is no space for constructions such as "loan.post({"amt": 5e3, "t": 12})", which focuses more on how programmers interact with HTTP. The API system is simple when the functionality that users want is exposed in the most straightforward way possible. For example, a translation API should not hide the ability to detect the language of input text inside a method designed for returning the translated text, it’s better to create a new method designed for this purpose like “DetectLanguage()”. Another approach to simplicity is to make the common case 'awesome and fast' and the advanced case 'possible.' The complex advanced settings are hidden by default from typical users who just want to deal with frequent scenarios and are available only to those who specifically seek them. So, if a translation API includes the concept of an ML model, it’s not necessary to ask the user to specify it upfront, as it can be done later if needed. The API system is predictable or unsurprising when it relies on repeated, consistent patterns (e.g., naming fields consistently). API users don’t learn API details by thoroughly reading the full documentation but just enough to accomplish what they want. If they learn that a field is called "text" in one request message, they’ll assume (as an educated guess) that a related method takes an "input.content" parameter with the same field name. If this assumption fails (e.g., because another message names the field "inputText", "content", or "textContent"), their productivity will decrease, and they’ll have to spend time figuring out why their assumption failed. Many APIs are built by multiple teams, where each member may name fields differently—especially if different people are responsible for different fields. Over time, these seemingly insignificant inconsistencies become much more important. Implement API Naming Conventions Best Practices Senior API developers should be able to employ principles and strategies to choose good names for different components of an API and distinguish good names from bad ones when designing and building APIs. It’s obviously possible to change API names after we realize they are bad, even if they are already in production. However, after changing the name of a frequently used function, you have to update all references to that function name with a big find-and-replace across all public source code available. This is not possible if a client has already copied that source code and made it private. The API’s name should be expressive. In other words, it should clearly indicate what it represents: If a function or RPC, then something like "DeleteAccount" If a resource or message, then something like "WeatherReading" If a field or property, then something like "postal_code" If an enumeration value, then something like "Color.RED" The API’s name should be simple or as long as necessary for clarity—no more and no less: "UserPreferences" is a better name for a resource used to store a user's preferences. "UserCustomPreferences" is a bad choice (the "Custom" does not add much). "Preferences" is a bad choice (unclear whose preferences—system-level or administrator-level). The API’s name should be predictable. If you group similar asynchronous messages together and use the name “topic” in one place, do not use “messaging_topic” in other places for the same goal, because the same name should represent the same concept, while different names should represent different things. Understand the Differences Between Remote Procedure Call (RPC) and REST API Architectures Experienced API developers often use REST API to perform so-called CRUD operations on a server, for example, to add a product to a database, retrieve the contents of a music playlist, update a person’s address, or delete an article from the website. As to RPC calls (or modern implementations such as gRPC for streaming), it’s great for stateless functionality, like to make complicated calculations or to run a procedure on the remote server (use an ML algorithm to detect fraud, transfer money between accounts, get a weather prediction for the town based on the postal code, take a picture with a remote device’s camera, or restart a server). Backend API Development Backend API developers understand and implement third-party integrations smoothly in applications, enabling business logic to be accessed from web, mobile, and IoT devices. They have a good grasp of security concepts like OWASP to ensure data security. Their focus is on delivering work with low latency and scalability, from design to coding and final release. These developers manage the exchange of data between the server and users, primarily focusing on server-side logic for high performance and quick responses. They may also integrate front-end elements developed by others. A basic understanding of front-end technologies is needed. An ideal API developer candidate has experience with complex tech implementations and a drive to continually improve and simplify systems. Responsibilities: API interface and service development (internal/external) Improving efficiency through identification of areas for improvement Developing, testing, deploying, and supporting services Monitoring and reporting features for service effectiveness Independent solution design and architecture API engineering, building, and scaling Web service design, development, documentation, and maintenance using AWS API Gateway, Lambda, and other serverless tech. API developer vs Backend Developer Backend developers and API developers both work on the backend of an application, but with different focuses. Backend developers create server-side logic, while API developers - the communication channel between systems and parts of the same system, or application programming interface allowing data and functionality to be shared. It is usually implemented through a web service API using REST and JSON. It's not about front-end interface. The front-end interface is the user interface of an application and is what the user interacts with. It is implemented using technologies such as HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. The front-end interface communicates with the backend, typically through an API, to access data and functionality and is responsible for visual presentation.

Where To Look for Offshore Software Development Team The rising need for IT outsourcing has resulted in South America, Asia, and Eastern Europe becoming leading offshore locations.  Eastern Europe Eastern European countries, like Poland, have become established in the IT outsourcing industry due to their cost-effectiveness, skilled workforce, cultural and language similarities, and convenient time zones. Although Eastern European developers may not be as affordable as their Asian counterparts, they make up for it with their high-quality work, reliable communication, and timely delivery. South America South American countries have emerged as significant players in the IT outsourcing industry as their proximity to US startups. Brazil, Argentina, Chile, Colombia, and Mexico offer a vast pool of over 500,000 IT experts in various disciplines, with the number expected to increase in the coming years. Moreover, developers in these countries have excellent English proficiency, and the IT industry enjoys robust government support. Asia The Asia region has been a popular destination for outsourcing app development due to its abundance of over 4 million skilled IT professionals. Cost is often the major factor driving outsourcing to Asian countries, as developers in countries like India typically earn lower salaries than their US-based counterparts, with an average of $20,000 per year. However, when outsourcing to India, China, or Vietnam, be mindful of potential language and cultural barriers. How to Hire Offshore Dedicated Development Team Step 1. Search for a reliable software partner. Check the reviews of past clients and company information for evaluating a potential vendor. Look for the potential developers via: searching through tech company directories like G2, Goodfirms, Upcity, ITFirms, etc. contacting software development vendors directly using B2B social media like LinkedIn or Twitter freelance websites like Upwork Step 2. Collect requirements and set up communication. When you first contact a selected offshore software development company, share your vision of business needs with your partner. Consider, if the vendor appreciates your goals and has a clear idea of how to deliver the expected outcome. A vendor learns all the data to get a full picture of your requirements and to identify your expectations. This establishes a set up for selecting an accomplished size and structure of a dedicated developer's team and providing highly accurate job descriptions. Step 3. Choose the best developers for your team. Initially, the software vendor finds and interviews candidates to create a shortlist of the best-fit developers for your project and demands. Then, you interview shortlisted candidates personally. Conduct it with your own testing assignments, live coding sessions, etc. The involvement in the hiring process contributes to a clear and complete vision of your future dedicated developer's team. Step 4. Set up effective management and regular communication. Settle the method (Agile, Scrum, Kanban, Waterfall) and communication tools that are convenient for both parties (Zoom, Jira, Skype, Trello, ClickUp, etc) before the team starts operating. Usually, development is an iterative process. Get a detailed report regularly. Share your feedback and make any necessary changes. Regular communication and detailed reporting with feedback give 100% transparency in the development processes. The final stage is the product release when you get the expected result and can deliver it to the end users. Further support, maintenance, or customization are optional if you request. How To Check The Quality Of An Offshore Development Team Pay attention to the following aspects: Portfolio. To start with, it is essential to assess the portfolio of the team. Examine the projects the team has worked on, the industries they have served, the outcomes they have delivered, and other relevant factors. Reviews. To gather feedback on the team's previous work, search for testimonials from past clients. A reliable source for reviews is the rating website Clutch.co, where companies share their projects and clients can post reviews of their experiences. Recommendations. Consider references when selecting a team. However, inquire about the team's strengths and weaknesses, the quality of their work, their ability to meet deadlines, and any other factors that are significant to the decision-making process. The project complexity. Analyze the level and complexity of the team's past projects. Evaluating the success of these projects and whether they achieved the desired results for clients is also important. Study the complexity of the projects the team has handled as it may offer valuable insights into their capabilities. Team composition. Recognize the composition of the team, ensuring there is sufficient for specialists to complete the project. Each team member possesses the required knowledge and skills in their respective field. Workflow. Assessing the effectiveness and accuracy of the team's workflow is crucial to the project's success. The workflow should incorporate a well-built Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) that includes the necessary processes we previously described. How to Manage Offshore Development Team Choose effective means of communication Having a specified communication platform for the team has been highly beneficial in avoiding communication conflicts and ensuring that all necessary information is easily accessible. Use task management tools To organize the project tasks and monitor their progress, use a single tool for management of all tasks or separate tools for various stages of product development, such as design and development. Set priorities and KPIs Setting Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) for your team members and prioritizing tasks within the project can be effective in achieving success. Settle primary objectives for each stage of product development and motivate the team to accomplish them. Set up a clear team structure Establishing a clear team structure is important. This involves identifying each team member's role, building the hierarchy of the team, and promoting cooperation among the members. Challenges You May Face with an Offshore Development Team Time zones. When hiring offshore developers, time difference may be a challenge, as it can cause communication issues, such as difficulty addressing real-time problems or understanding certain issues. How to resolve: We recommend scheduling regular meetings and workshops in advance to discuss tasks, progress, and other influential matters with your team. Cultural difference. Cultural differences may impact the effectiveness of an offshore software development team. How to resolve: Conduct a thorough analysis of candidates before making a selection. This will help you identify any cultural differences that may affect the success of your project. Lack of personal contact. Lack of personal interaction with your offshore development team may hinder mutual comprehension and the achievement of the expected outcome. How to resolve: To prevent this, favor frequent team communication. Schedule weekly calls or video conferences to stay connected. The Cost of Hiring an Offshore Software Development Team The cost of remote development specialists stands on: The location of a business can significantly influence because of various factors such as living costs, business taxes and regulations, market demand, and currency value. These factors can affect the salary rates in a particular location, resulting in increased or decreased development costs. The more experienced the developer is, the higher is his rate. Senior developers, especially those who have completed many projects and have leadership skills, often command higher charges. It is important to monitor the development market as even junior developers may have high rates nowadays.  Language proficiency of the engineers affects their pay rate significantly, while for your business, English knowledge guarantees smooth communication. Tech stack, in terms of compensation, or combination of skills required for a project can impact the cost. A rare tech stack or specific set of skills, either a 5+ years of experience requirement may have hardships to find the right fit and lead to a higher compensation. Type of employment determines the cost of hiring. In-house hiring may appear cheaper initially, as salary information platforms typically show base salaries that don't include taxes, benefits, vacations, office costs, and other expenses. Freelance, staff augmentation, and outsourcing dedicated teams vary price ranges depending on the services provided.
