Hire Python developers for your team in Australia

Look for readable, organised code before a long list of libraries. A developer should use Python’s standard style guide, add checked type hints and structure the project as packages that your team can follow.

• Framework knowledgeDjango suits full applications with an admin and ORM; FastAPI suits typed APIs, while Flask is useful for small services.
• Repeatable environmentsDependencies are managed with uv, Poetry or pip and virtual environments, with versions pinned so builds install the same packages.
• Tests for real rulespytest tests cover business logic and data handling, using fixtures and mocks where they help.
• Data handlingpandas or Polars can clean and process data; larger workloads may need database processing or batch jobs.
• Background workCelery, RQ or a similar queue handles scheduled imports, reports and data synchronisation away from the main request.

You direct the work and choose the capacity that fits your backlog. We include a lead who reviews code and keeps the work on track.

1. 01

   Choose capacity

   We offer full-time and part-time developers, or a fixed number of hours a month. You can scale the plan up or down, or pause it as your needs change.

2. 02

   Join your workflow

   Developers work in your repository, tickets and stand-ups, with overlap hours agreed at the outset.

3. 03

   Set up the project

   Share an architecture overview, coding standards, branching and release process, and local setup instructions. We record gaps found during onboarding.

4. 04

   Start with real work

   Plan an environment setup and product walkthrough, followed by a small task that touches the main parts of the system.

5. 05

   Keep control

   Keep repositories, cloud accounts and third-party services under your organisation, and confirm intellectual property assignment in the contract.

Health service providers can be covered by the Privacy Act regardless of turnover, and most government agencies are covered too. For a covered organisation, giving personal information to an overseas contractor is generally a disclosure, so the overseas data-handling requirements affect the engagement. We provide an NDA and set up the contract’s personal-information handling requirements with you; access should start through individual accounts with only the permissions needed, using staging before production.

A short written brief gives the developer a useful starting point.

• Rank your backlog or describe the initial tasks clearly enough for work to begin.
• List the skills and seniority needed, including any framework or legacy-system experience.
• Name the person who will answer questions and describe the working-hours overlap you need.
• Define donestate the review rules, expected tests, and who approves and deploys the work.
