Python web applications
Django, Flask and FastAPI — from a first production release to a platform under real load.
Why hire Python developers from UpNext Software?
- Senior Python engineers with production experience in Django, FastAPI and Flask — not generalists who have read the docs.
- Dedicated developers who work only on your product, rather than freelancers split across several clients.
- Daily standups and a shared Slack or Teams channel, so progress is visible without you having to ask for it.
- Transparent engagement terms: a scoped, fixed-cost quote, or a monthly dedicated developer. No surprise line items.
- Based in Surat, India, working with clients across the USA, Canada, UK, Europe, the Middle East and Australia.
What our Python developers build
REST and GraphQL APIs
Versioned, documented and tested, with the auth and rate limiting worked out before launch rather than after.
Data pipelines and ETL automation
Scheduled jobs, queue workers and the retry and alerting behaviour that stops a silent failure becoming a silent gap in your data.
AI and ML model integration
Putting a model behind an API your product can actually call, with the inference cost and latency measured rather than assumed.
ERPNext and Odoo customisation
Custom modules, server scripts and integrations on top of an existing deployment.
The stack we work in
- Python
- Django
- FastAPI
- Flask
- Celery
- PostgreSQL
- Redis
- Docker
Python is the centre of it rather than the whole of it. Most of these projects also touch a front end, a cloud account and somebody else's API, and we would rather say so than present a language list as an architecture.
Engagement models
Dedicated developer
One or more engineers working only on your product, in your tools and your standups. You direct the work; we handle employment, cover and replacement.
Best when the roadmap is longer than the current team can absorb.
Project, fixed cost
A defined scope with a fixed price and milestones tied to delivered, tested features rather than to the calendar.
Best when the thing to build is well understood and the budget has to be known up front.
Team augmentation
Add engineers to your existing team for a push, then scale back. Your process, your repository, your code review.
Best when the work is seasonal, or a deadline needs more hands than a hire can deliver in time.
Rates depend on seniority and on how long the engagement runs, so we quote them against your actual requirement rather than publishing a band that would be wrong for most of the people reading it. Ask on the call and you will get a number the same day.
Frequently asked questions
How quickly can we start?
Within 48 to 72 hours of signing, for an engineer already on the bench. A specialist profile — a particular framework, a domain, or an unusual timezone requirement — takes longer, and we would tell you that at the point of asking rather than after you had signed.
Do you offer a trial period?
Yes, a one-week paid trial on dedicated engagements. It is paid because a free trial pressures everyone to show well rather than work normally, and the point is to see how the engineer actually works in your codebase.
What time zones do you cover?
The team works IST (GMT+5:30) and overlaps the US East Coast morning and the UK working day comfortably. US Pacific overlap is shorter, so we agree the hours in writing before starting rather than leaving it to goodwill.
Who owns the code?
You do, in full, from the first commit. It is written in your repository where you can see it, and the contract assigns all IP to you with no vendor libraries or licence encumbrances embedded in your product.
What happens if the developer is not a fit?
Tell us and we replace them. That is most of the argument for a dedicated team over a direct hire: a mis-hire costs you a notice period and a re-run of the whole recruitment process, and here it costs a conversation.
How is this different from hiring a freelancer?
Cover and continuity. A freelancer who is ill, busy with another client, or simply stops replying leaves you with a codebase and no one who knows it. Here the engagement is with a company that has other engineers who can pick it up, and the work is reviewed by someone other than the person who wrote it.
Tell us what you are building
Thirty minutes, no slides. Describe the problem and we will tell you what it would take — including when the honest answer is that you do not need us.
