About the role

The work

You will create original, research-style computational statistics problems that require substantial reasoning and cannot reasonably be solved by hand. Your work should reflect real applied and research workflows.

You will use Python and standard scientific libraries to check each solution, then clearly document the problem and its fully reproducible answer.

  • Design problems involving estimation, inference, simulation, and optimization.
  • Use NumPy, SciPy, Pandas, and SymPy where appropriate to verify solutions.
  • Write clear problem statements and reproducible solutions.
  • Evaluate and fine-tune text-based AI training material.

What it pays and takes

This is a part-time contractor role for someone with intermediate experience in computational statistics. The listing requires a degree and focuses on research-style statistics work.

  • Pay: $15 to $60 per hour.
  • Schedule: 20 or more hours per week.
  • Work arrangement: Worldwide and remote.
  • Engagement: Part-time contractor.
  • Education: Degree required.
