Working proficiency in Python and/or SQL; comfort reading and writing analysis code is expected
Strong written communication skills; ability to explain complex concepts clearly and concisely
Comfortable working independently in a remote, self-directed environment
Available to commit 30 40 hours per week for the full 12-week engagement
Based in the United States
Advanced degree in a quantitative field is a plus - practical expertise matters more than credentials

Once the 12-week sprint concludes, you are under no obligation to continue. However, many contributors choose to keep working on the projects on a flexible, project-by-project basis choosing what to work on, when, and at whatever cadence fits their schedule.

Apply here and have a conversation with our recruiting team
Complete a paid skills assessment (3–4 hours, $240 flat rate) - coding-based, must reflect your own expertise
Onboard and begin the 12-week sprint
