rsync? robocopy?

If you really want to roll your own, you can transfer with ftp, and afterwards login over ssh to execute it.

Look at Fabric, Paramiko or Ansible,if want Python solutions.
Ansible can be overkill,but if just use Script module it's really nice.
Eg:

- name: Transfer and execute a script.
  hosts: all
  tasks:

     - name: Copy and Execute the script 
       script: /home/user/my_code.py
