What do offshore Python developers do?
Offshore Python developers build and maintain the server-side logic that powers your web applications, APIs, and data systems. They write scalable code, connect your frontend to backend services, integrate with third-party platforms, and automate processes that would otherwise eat up your team’s time.
Build server-side applications using Django, Flask, or FastAPI. Create the business logic that connects your frontend, mobile apps, and external services.
Design and build RESTful APIs that are secure, well-documented, and easy to integrate. Handle authentication, data validation, and versioning.
Connect your applications to relational databases like PostgreSQL and MySQL, or NoSQL options like MongoDB. Manage data persistence using ORMs like SQLAlchemy or Django ORM.
Write scripts that automate repetitive tasks, from data processing to system administration. Reduce manual work and free up your team to focus on higher-value problems.
Work with libraries like Pandas and NumPy to clean, transform, and analyse data. Build pipelines that feed information into dashboards, reports, or machine learning models.
Connect disparate systems, APIs, and data sources. Python excels as the connective tissue between legacy platforms, third-party tools, and modern applications.
Tech stack and tools that Python developers use
Python developers come with hands-on experience across modern development platforms:
Django
Flask
FastAPI
PostgreSQL
MySQL
MongoDB
Redis
SQLAlchemy
Django
AWS
GCP
Azure
Docker
Kubernetes
Jenkins
Celery
RabbitMQ
Pandas
NumPy
Pytest
Unittest
Benefits of hiring offshore Python developers
Cost efficiency
Cut costs by 30-40% without sacrificing quality. For the price of 3 Python developers in the UK (~£150k), you can hire 7 in Bangalore with the same capabilities.
Expertise
Hire Python developers with the skills you need: Django, Flask, FastAPI, RESTful APIs, PostgreSQL, MySQL, MongoDB, Pandas, NumPy, Docker, Kubernetes, AWS, and more.
Scalability
Scale your team as your business grows. Add Python developers when priorities shift, when you’re building a new product, or when you need to move faster.
Faster delivery
Time zone differences can be an operational advantage. When your US or European team logs off, your Bangalore team picks up, implements, tests, and pushes updates.
Why hire Python developers in Bangalore?
Bangalore is known as ‘The Silicon Valley of Asia’ and has become an ideal IT offshoring destination for companies seeking the right Python developers.
2 million developers, 35% of India’s tech workforce
Bangalore has the largest concentration of tech talent in India. Over 2 million software developers live and work here, with 90,000 new engineering graduates joining every year.
550+ Global Capability Centres (GCCs)
Over 40% of India’s 1,750+ GCCs are in Bangalore, employing 800,000+ professionals. Tech giants like Amazon, Google, and Microsoft run major operations here.
4,000+ Python development roles in demand
The Python development talent pool runs deep. You can find specialists with experience in your tech stack and industry.
#1 startup ecosystem in India
2,363 startups, 32 active unicorns, ranked #10 globally. Engineers here have built large-scale data systems for Flipkart, Ola, and Swiggy, managing billions of daily transactions.
Time zone advantage
Indian time is GMT+5:30 with no daylight saving time variations. This provides at least six hours of daily overlap with most global locations.
25-40% cost savings
Hiring Python developers in Bangalore costs significantly less than the same role in the US or Western Europe.

Frequently asked questions
The final cost of hiring a Python programmer depends on several factors, such as the location and the hiring and engagement model you use. Hiring a Python programmer in the US can cost up to $170,000/year (just in salaries). Companies that go offshore report savings of 25-40% in total cost per engineer.
With the right model and offshore partner, integrating Python developers into your local team is quite fast and easy, and starts from the moment your new engineers are onboarded. At The Scalers, we provide our partners with everything they need to make their developers feel comfortable from day one, including support from a dedicated Chief Happiness Officer, responsible for the team’s well-being and keeping people happy and motivated daily.
You can hire Python developers via outsourcing, nearshoring, or offshoring. However, if you are looking to hire professionals who stay for the long term and are invested in your product’s success, offshoring is the hiring and engagement model that will best suit your needs.
The best way to test a developer’s expertise is by conducting technical testing. At The Scalers, this is a key step of our recruitment process: we prepare a technical assessment, a live coding session, and a technical review. We have pre-built, proven and tested technical tests, but we are always open to using tests that companies provide to us.
To find a good Python developer, especially if you go offshore, you must partner with an offshore development firm that has experience hiring top Python talent. To ensure they are the right fit, ask them for case studies and verify they have a proven track record of building teams for companies like yours.
At The Scalers, we have a structured procedure for such cases. If you’re not happy with an engineer, our People & Culture team will initiate a PIP (Performance Improvement Process). When starting a PIP, we will prepare a document with clear goals for the individual to meet within 30 days. If the engineer achieves those goals, they remain on the team. If not, termination of their employment is the next step.
If you hire Python developers through offshoring, they won’t work in your time zone. However, this is an added benefit: you get extended development coverage, as your offshore engineers will continue working after your UK or US team logs off.
The core skills include proficiency in backend frameworks such as Django, Flask, or FastAPI, as well as experience with PostgreSQL, MySQL, or MongoDB. Most roles also require familiarity with cloud platforms like AWS and DevOps tools like Docker and Kubernetes. For data-focused work, Pandas and NumPy are essential.
