Python engineers
Python engineers, met before you hire. You watch the Assay. We stay until it ships.
Backend
Three ways to work with them
- Core
You choose the engineer. We get them to you.
- Deployed
You lead the work. We stand behind the engineer.
- Shipped
You set the outcome. We deliver it.
On-site, remote in-country, remote global, fractional.

The Assay
How the Assay works for Python
Run by a 16Psyke architect
A 16Psyke architect runs the interview, not a recruiter.
Recorded
You watch the interview before you hire.
Identity, checked twice
We check identity at the interview and again on day one.
What the Assay probes for Python
- Types and structure: type hints, protocols and dataclasses in a codebase other people maintain.
- Concurrency: when asyncio, threads or processes fit, and what the GIL changes for each.
- Packaging and environments: pinned dependencies, reproducible builds and a clean deploy.
- Testing: pytest fixtures, what to mock and what to run for real.
- Performance: profiling a slow path before rewriting it.
- A live change to an unfamiliar service, explained as they make it.
Questions
- How do I hire Python engineers through 16Psyke?
- Tell us the role. Requests are free, you meet every engineer on the shortlist before you hire, and you pay only when an engineer works.
- How do you check Python engineers before I hire?
- A 16Psyke architect runs a recorded technical interview, the Assay, and you watch it before you hire. We check identity at the interview and again on day one.
- Can Python engineers work on-site or remote?
- On-site, remote in-country, remote global or fractional. One blended team, one contract, one invoice.
Tell us the role. We'll show you the metal.
