Hire a Python Consultant
Hire a Python consultant for backend architecture, APIs, data pipelines, automation, and code review — senior, pragmatic, ex-CTO. Django/DRF, PostgreSQL, and AI. Remote, IST.
If you want to hire a Python consultant who’s shipped real systems rather than slide decks, that’s me. I’m Kuldeep Pisda — a senior software engineer and former startup CTO in Bengaluru with 6+ years building production Python: web backends, APIs, data plumbing, and lately AI systems on top.
Where I help
- Backend architecture — service boundaries, data models, and the pragmatic call between a monolith and something more complex (usually: don’t over-engineer it yet).
- APIs — Django REST Framework and FastAPI, designed around what clients actually need, documented and versioned.
- PostgreSQL — the database as a first-class concern: query performance, indexing, and correctness in the schema, not hopeful application code.
- Automation and integrations — the scripts, pipelines, and third-party syncs that quietly run a business, made reliable instead of held together with tape.
- AI/LLM features — agents, RAG, and semantic search when they genuinely solve the problem, on infrastructure that can carry them.
- Code review and mentoring — a senior read on your codebase, and levelling up the team that maintains it.
How I work
Direct and pragmatic. I lead with constraints and trade-offs, always name a simpler alternative, and flag the scaling or security concern you didn’t ask about. Short, well-scoped engagements with a written plan and testable milestones — a project, a retainer, or a focused review. Remote, IST, US/EU overlap.
Experience you’re hiring
A Python/Django platform scaled past 30,000 users on a lean budget; products taken from zero to production and from internal tool to whitelabel SaaS; multiple LLMs in production; and founding-SRE and SOC 2 work. I’m an open-source author (a PostgreSQL row-level-security library for Django, among others) and a DjangoCon and EuroPython speaker. The case studies show the work.
FAQ
Just Python, or Django too? Both — Django/DRF is my home turf, but I also do FastAPI and plain-Python backend and data work.
Can you review our codebase without a big engagement? Yes — a fixed-scope architecture or code review is a common, low-commitment starting point.
Do you do data pipelines and automation? Yes — ETL, scheduled jobs, and integration plumbing, made observable and reliable.
International clients? Yes — remote, IST, with regular US and EU overlap.
