Scalable Web Applications & APIs
Our elixir developers build tailor-made web applications using a powerful stack centered on Elixir and the Phoenix Framework. Our process focuses on creating clean, concurrent code for solutions that are both incredibly responsive and easy to maintain. By integrating tools like Absinthe for GraphQL APIs and Ecto for database queries, we develop applications that perform reliably under massive user loads. This approach provides a solid, scalable foundation for your application's future, making it a lasting business asset.
Real-Time Systems & Collaborative Platforms
Our developers use Elixir’s powerful concurrency model and Phoenix LiveView to create rich, real-time user experiences like chat, live dashboards, and collaborative tools. These applications provide instant updates with minimal client-side JavaScript, reducing complexity and boosting performance. We design robust systems using Phoenix Channels that facilitate seamless, low-latency communication for your users, keeping them engaged while ensuring your platform runs efficiently at scale.
High-Availability & Fault-Tolerant Systems
Our elixir development team builds potent, self-healing systems by leveraging Elixir and OTP (Open Telecom Platform). We configure supervisor trees that automatically restart parts of the application in case of failure, delivering unparalleled uptime for mission-critical services like fintech platforms or healthcare systems. The outcome is a resilient application that is straightforward for your engineers to extend and provides extreme reliability, ensuring your business operations are safe and always online.
Distributed Systems & IoT Platforms
Our Elixir developers architect high-concurrency IoT platforms designed to handle millions of persistent connections from distributed devices. Our stack includes Elixir and the Nerves Project, allowing us to build and deploy resilient embedded software that runs directly on hardware. This setup is designed for maximum reliability in data ingestion and device management. We build systems that can scale with your network, maintaining a responsive and powerful connection to all your devices as your complexity increases.
High-Concurrency Data Processing
We develop effective data ingestion and processing pipelines by building with frameworks like Broadway and GenStage. This method allows for the creation of multi-stage, concurrent data pipelines that are both back-pressure aware and fault-tolerant, saving considerable operational overhead. We can add custom processing stages, integrate with systems like RabbitMQ or Kafka, and handle massive volumes of events. With this, our Elixir developers transforms a standard data flow into a purpose-built processing engine that gives your business real-time insights with greater reliability.

Latest Trends in Elixir Development
The Dominance of Phoenix LiveView
With LiveView, developers are building rich, real-time experiences with server-rendered HTML, often eliminating entire layers of frontend JavaScript complexity. The trend is to create interactive, "single-page app" experiences with the simplicity and performance of a traditional server-side application.
Elixir for AI/ML and Data Science
There's a significant trend of using Elixir for performant data processing and machine learning with tools like Nx (Numerical Elixir) and Axon. This approach allows companies to build and serve ML models within their highly concurrent Elixir applications, simplifying deployment and leveraging the BEAM for inference.
Deepening OTP Integration
While OTP has always been core, there's a growing trend towards using its advanced patterns (like supervisors and GenServers) for general application logic, not just for background tasks. This leads to more robust, self-healing applications where every component is managed for fault tolerance.
Elixir in Embedded Systems with Nerves
A major trend is the seamless development of reliable, fault-tolerant firmware for IoT devices using the Nerves Project. This allows for a superior developer experience, combining Elixir's powerful concurrency with robust over-the-air updates in a minimal, managed environment.
Elixir as a Polyglot Orchestrator
Developers are increasingly using Elixir and the BEAM as a highly reliable central hub for polyglot systems. Given Elixir's ability to easily manage concurrent processes and communicate with external programs, it provides the perfect, resilient foundation for orchestrating microservices written in Rust, Go, or Python.
Our Success Stories
Building an E-commerce App That Saves Users Money
The client aimed to launch an e-commerce platform on both iOS and Android simultaneously with a consistent user experience and native performance. Flutter enabled rapid development and a beautiful, brand-aligned UI.
With consistent delivery and a focus on user engagement, the app saw high adoption rates and positive reviews, leading to an extended partnership for new feature rollouts.
Launching Thunai: An AI Agent for Sales + Customer Support Teams
Sales and Customer Support teams required a smart AI solution to streamline customer interactions and provide instant, accurate responses.
We built Thunai, our own AI Agent in-house. Its capabilities allow for handling complex inquiries, automating routine tasks, and integrating seamlessly with existing CRM and support tools
FAQs on Hiring Elixir Developers
An Elixir developer uses the Elixir programming language and OTP to build scalable, fault-tolerant, and real-time applications. Their work includes building web applications with Phoenix, creating distributed systems, and ensuring high availability on the Erlang VM (BEAM).
They use Elixir as the core language and its build tool, Mix. Key tools include the Phoenix web framework, LiveView for real-time UIs, and Ecto for database interaction. A deep understanding of OTP and testing with ExUnit is standard.
Elixir applications are compiled into a self-contained release using Mix. This release includes the compiled code and the Erlang runtime system, which is then typically packaged in a minimal Docker container and managed with Kubernetes for scalability or deployed directly onto a server.
The cost of hiring an Elixir developer varies based on experience and location. In North America, hourly rates for freelance Elixir developers typically range from $60 to over $100. Full-time salaries can differ significantly, with annual figures generally falling between $120,000 and $180,000 or more for senior roles.
Hiring a remote Elixir developer can be more cost-effective depending on their location. For instance, developers from Latin America or Eastern Europe may have hourly rates ranging from $50 to $100. North American remote developers' rates are often comparable to their in-office counterparts, generally between $70 and $150 per hour.
Yes, Elixir has a promising future, particularly for building scalable and maintainable applications. Its foundation on the Erlang VM provides exceptional concurrency and fault tolerance, making it ideal for high-traffic and real-time systems. The growing adoption by companies and a supportive community contribute to its positive outlook.
