3\. Ideal Qualifications

5+ years of applied data science or analytics experience in business settings

Proficiency in Python or R (pandas, NumPy, Jupyter) and strong SQL skills

Experience with data visualization tools (e.g., Tableau, Power BI)

Solid understanding of statistical modeling, experimentation, and A / B testing

Strong communication skills for translating technical work into strategic insights

4\. More About the Opportunity

Remote

Expected commitment : min 30 hours / week

Project duration : ~6 weeks

5\. Compensation & Contract Terms
