I think there are multiple things one could do to achieve this, but am uncertain which way to go:

if you use systemd create a systemd service I guess? How to create systemd service that runs a (python) script on startup?
some files similar to .bashrc always run on system startup/boot?; use this if you are less fancy / have no systemd

If you want to be lazy, use crontab @reboot

Making a systemd unit is the "correct" way

Yeah after searching on the arch wiki, I guess systemd timers, not services, are specifically what I was interested in, thanks!
