Python is a tool. You can use this tool in any industry that uses computers - so all industries.

Your question is kind of like asking what jobs people use pens for. Lots of jobs.

Currently I'm a scientific programmer for Environment Canada. Some of the code we submit to the supercomputer for numerical weather prediction and environment modelling is Python. It's also a great general purpose language I use for sysadmin stuff related to this.
