Python Developer Needed – Automated Youtube Shorts & Long-Form Video

I am looking for an experienced Python developer to finalize and deploy a fully automated YouTube content generation pipeline. The core script is already written and includes multi-API integration, budget control, and video generation logic. Your task will be to make it 100% production-ready, plug-and-play, with minimal manual intervention. Key Responsibilities: Review and optimize the existing Python code (already structured and documented). Connect and configure external APIs (YouTube Data api, gpt-4, did for avatar videos, free trend apis fallback, smtp for notifications). Implement budget management: the script must track gpu/api usage in real-time, stop at €250/month, send email alerts with cost projections, and wait for manual approval before continuing. Configure GPU usage (on-demand, cost-limited). Ensure correct video pipeline: Shorts (≤60s, 15/day, initially in English, open-source images, AI voice). Long-form video (2h) + teaser (using did + gpt-4, only when viral short is detected). Implement fallback mechanisms if APIs fail (Exploding Topics → switch to free APIs). Optimize for stability, error handling, retries, and quota distribution between APIs. Deploy final version on server (Linux/Ubuntu preferred) with proper scheduling (e.g., Cron). Provide short documentation (install, config, run). Requirements: Strong Python skills. API integration experience. Familiarity with video/AI tools (FFmpeg, GPT APIs, DID avatars). Knowledge of budget control & logging. Experience with automation and YouTube API. Deliverable: A fully automated, production-ready script where the only setup required is inserting API keys.
