William pointed out the Cython interface to GMP-ECM. However this does not completely answer your question, since it will only find *some* factors of N, but does not guarantee to find *all* factors less than 2^30. What you want is a deterministic ECM method, i.e., a set of ECM curves (with Stage 1 and 2 bounds) which guarantees to find all divisors less than 2^30. This is a nice research problem, but to my best knowledge, no solution is known so far.
