Developers reviewing API contracts at a shared desk

Sydney · API & backend consulting

OakCore Development Consulting

We design how your systems talk to each other — mapping integrations, shaping backend services, and leaving your team with contracts and runbooks they can own.

When integrations stall, delivery stalls

Product teams often inherit half-finished API work: brittle webhooks, unclear ownership of payloads, and backends that grew by accident. OakCore sits with your engineers and product leads to clarify boundaries, sequence the work, and design services that stay maintainable after we leave.

Our flagship offer is API integration consulting — discovery through first production cutover — with backend service design and integration audits available as companion work.

Flagship: API Integration Consulting

For teams connecting payment processors, CRMs, logistics partners, or internal services who need a clear contract map, staged rollout, and hands-on design review — not a slide deck of vague principles.

From recent engagements

Specific outcomes from Australian teams who brought us into live integration work.

“OakCore redrew our partner API map in the first week. We still had to negotiate rate limits with the carrier, but the failure modes were finally written down instead of living in Slack.”
Priya N. · Head of Engineering, Melbourne logistics firm
“The backend service boundaries they proposed felt conservative at first. After two release cycles we were glad — onboarding a second marketplace didn’t require rewriting the original service.”
Marcus T. · Product lead, Sydney retail stack
