A Python developer is an IT expert specializing in programming and developing various applications (program scripting, big data manipulation, web servers, etc.) using Python’s popular programming language.

Python developers may create an application for an employer, design the framework for code, build tools, create websites, or publish new services.

If you want to hire Python developers in the Philippines, you can directly hire part-time or full-time Python developers on VirtualStaff.ph. All you need to do is sign up and create a free employer account.

Once you have created your employer account, it’s as easy as posting a job, messaging or interviewing applicants, and deciding to hire a Python developer that is the best fit for your business needs. 

Before you decide to hire a Python programmer, it’s essential that you first determine what kind of experience and skill level you require the developer to have.

1. Do you want to hire an entry-level/junior Python developer, or perhaps an intermediate or even a senior? 
2. What is the salary budget that you have available? Often, if you can afford to pay a little more, you will attract better quality better-quality applicants. 
3. Do you need the person to work part-time or full-time?

You can hire full-time Python developers for between $3.75 and $25.00 per hour in the Philippines. The average rate for intermediate and senior Python developers will range between $6.25 and $13.75 per hour.

The salary rates listed below are what we would advise as a minimum. The actual salary that the individual Python developer is looking for can vary greatly depending on the person.

Please see below the estimated cost to hire different level Python developers in the Philippines:

Entry-level: $3.75 to $7.50 is what you should expect to pay someone with less than two years of Python experience. This person might identify themselves as a junior python developer. 

Intermediate: $6.25 and above, you can hire an intermediate Python developer with two and five years of experience. 

Senior (Expert): Between $7.50 and $25.00 per hour is what you can expect to pay to hire a highly skilled and vastly experienced Python developer. This person should handle complex tasks and perhaps even lead a team of junior or intermediate python programmers.

On average, you should be saving 66% to 75% on what it would cost you to hire the same skilled Python developer in the USA. This is a good rule of thumb to keep in mind when considering how much salary to offer your Python programmer in the Philippines. 

Suppose you want to hire either part-time or full-time Python developers on a long-term basis. In that case, VirtualStaff.ph is exclusively geared towards providing you with a marketplace to find, hire, and pay your remote developers. 

The main reasons that give VirtualStaff.ph an advantage over “traditional freelancing” platforms are because of the following reasons:

1. The lowest salary rates: This is because all of the developers on our outsourcing marketplace are exclusively based in the Philippines.

2. You want to hire developers in the Philippines: It makes sense for you to go straight to the source. Many famous outsourcing companies use VirtualStaff.ph to find and hire staff before assigning them to clients at a markup. You can cut that out and hire directly on VirtualStaff.ph.

3. No rating system: We don’t allow ratings because it promotes “freelancing.” Our marketplace is geared exclusively towards businesses that want to hire long-term staff. Whether that’s part-time or full-time. If we allow ratings, then it inflates salary rates and promotes short-term freelancing. 

These are only examples that some employers have added to jobs posted on our marketplace. We have included them to give you some ideas if it’s your first time hiring a Python developer.
