What is a Weekend Python job?

A Weekend Python job is a role that involves working with Python programming primarily on weekends. These positions are often part-time, freelance, or contract-based and may include tasks such as scripting, automation, data analysis, or web development.

Familiarity with web frameworks (like Django or Flask), databases, and cloud platforms such as AWS or Azure is often required, and certifications in Python or cloud technologies can be advantageous. Excellent time management, problem-solving abilities, and strong communication skills allow effective remote collaboration and independent work over weekends. These competencies enable Weekend Python Developers to efficiently contribute to projects, meet deadlines, and integrate seamlessly with teams despite non-traditional working hours.

As a Weekend Python Developer, you may be responsible for tasks such as developing and maintaining backend systems, building APIs, automating scripts, or supporting ongoing projects that require weekend coverage.

Job description

Do you have a knack for writing and the time it takes to get your thoughts in front of thousands of Python developers?
The realpython.com tutorial team is known for making the highest-quality Python tutorials available online. Our mission is to "help Python developers around the world become more awesome."
And with a reach of over 3 million visitors a month, it feels amazing how far we've come-but we think we can do even better!
To help us raise the quality level of our tutorials even further, and expand beyond the topics we've covered so far, we are looking for authors who:
  • Love Python and want to share their knowledge to help learners level up
  • Appreciate the importance of clarity and tone in educational writing
  • Want to hone their craft and make the most of our extensive publishing process
  • Have the time to start writing one or more new tutorials a month and meet deadlines

This is a fully remote position. More info here: realpython.com/jobs/tutorial-writer
Requirements
You should:
  • Have a few years of programming under your belt
  • Be ready to grow as a writer and work on your writing skills
  • Be comfortable learning brand new topics that you have never done before, which are either not documented or poorly documented
  • Have the time to make Real Python a regular part of your week-this will be a significant time commitment and is not easy

Benefits
There are plenty of perks to being on the Real Python team:
  1. Learning: You'll always be learning something new-and you'll have fun doing it. You'll become a better developer, writer, and communicator, while making new friends along the way.
  2. Eyeballs: Our site gets a lot of traffic-over 3 million visitors per month and growing. We're regularly featured in other Python publications and we also run one of the largest email newsletters and social media accounts in the community. When you publish a tutorial here, it will get read a lot, and people will love you for it.
  3. Tutorial Polish: When you submit a tutorial or article to realpython.com, we will personally work with you to polish your work to a high level of quality. In the end, your tutorial will look much better than when you first submitted it, making you look really good.
  4. Writing Training: When we are done reviewing and editing your tutorial, we will send you detailed feedback on how you can improve your tutorials in the future. This will help you become a better developer, writer, and communicator.
  5. Personal Exposure: Your picture and bio will be prominently featured on your tutorials and on multiple other places on the site. This can lead to a multitude of new opportunities for you-job offers, freelance projects, and conference invitations. An in-depth tutorial published on Real Python can make a great portfolio piece.
  6. Get Paid to Learn: You'll get paid to learn. We're not asking you to do this "just for the exposure"-this is a paid part-time position.
  7. Special Opportunities: Members of the tutorial team get access to special opportunities such as contributing to our books and courses, speaking at online meetups we organize, becoming interview guests to chat about an area of your expertise on the Real Python Podcast, working on team projects, and more.
  8. You'll Have an Impact: We get emails and comments every day about how our tutorials help our readers write their first Python program, get their learning progress unstuck, or accomplish their career dream of working with Python professionally. This means a lot to us and makes all the hard work worth it. Our most prolific authors have been approached at conferences and meetups by other developers who read their articles-a great conversation starter.
  9. 100% Remote-Friendly: At Real Python you'll join a remote-first, distributed, and diverse team that spans across the globe.
  10. Free Stuff: As a final bonus, by joining the tutorial team you will get a lot of free stuff. You'll get a free copy of all of the products we sell on the site, access to all of our members-only content, as well as a life-time membership to PythonistaCafe. That's about $1,000 in value you'll receive for free.
