  • 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
  • $75–100 / hour
  • Paid weekly via Stripe Connect
  • You’ll be classified as an independent contractor
  • 6\. Application Process
