Frequently asked questions

Everything you want to know clearly explained

What is nearshore Python development?

It's Python engineering delivered by a nearshore software development partner whose engineers work in your US timezone window. Our nearshore Python developers in Costa Rica sit 1 to 2 hours behind US Eastern, so you get real-time collaboration and time zone compatibility, not the delay of far-shore offshore development. You can engage them through staff augmentation or as dedicated teams that own a workstream end to end.

How is nearshore Python different from hiring offshore or freelance developers?

The difference is accountability and the working day. Offshore talent often runs on an 8 to 12 hour gap, and freelance talent from freelance platforms carries no delivery guarantee. Our model keeps engineers in your time zone with strong cultural alignment and bilingual communication, delivered by full-time staff rather than contractors. Measured against US hiring, the cost savings are competitive, without the turnover risk of the lowest-rate development agencies.

What can your Python developers build?

A wide range of software development work: web applications, app development, microservices architectures, and data-heavy backends. Our engineers handle full-stack development with Django and FastAPI, build secure payment gateway integration and banking APIs, and design real-time processing systems. We bring cloud expertise on Amazon Web Services and ship enterprise-grade Python solutions that scale.

Do your teams work on AI and machine learning with Python?

Yes. AI and machine learning is core to how we build, with artificial intelligence features baked into delivery rather than bolted on. We build ML models, RAG pipelines, and LLM workflows using large language models, and AI automation frameworks.

Why First Factory for fintech and financial technology Python work?

Financial Services is our largest segment, so our engineers know the domain. We build fraud detection, payment gateways, and banking APIs, and we handle the details that matter: transaction patterns, ledger entries, currency conversion, and mobile wallet ecosystems. Every build is backed by SOC 2 Type 2 security and a 25-year delivery track record, which is why financial platforms trust us with high-volume systems like our Oasis AML case-analysis platform.

What technologies do your Python developers use?

Beyond Django and FastAPI, our engineers work across microservices architectures, API contracts, and data workflows, with a strong focus on user experience and clean UX designs. They build ML models and LLM workflows, design query builder tooling and real-time processing systems, and deploy on Amazon Web Services. The goal is always user-focused solutions that deliver measurable business value.
