Opportunity Overview

  • Formulating problems that necessitate Python programming for resolution (using libraries such as Numpy, SciPy, Sympy);
  • Creating computationally intensive challenges that cannot be solved manually within a practical timeframe (days/weeks);
  • Developing problems that involve complex reasoning pathways in fields like number theory, combinatorics, graph theory, and numerical analysis;
  • Aligning problems with real-world research issues or practical mathematical applications;
  • Validating solutions through Python using standard mathematical libraries;
  • Clearly documenting problem statements and providing verified correct answers.

Ideal Candidate Profile

This role is best suited for statistical experts with Python experience who are open to part-time, non-permanent projects. The ideal contributors will possess:

  • A degree in Statistics or a related field;
  • Proficiency in Python for numerical validation; familiarity with MATLAB, R, C, SQL, Numpy, Pandas, SciPy, domain-specific libraries, or any programming language can serve as an equivalent;
  • A minimum of 2 years of professional experience, inclusive of applied, research, or teaching roles;
  • Strong written English skills (C1 or higher);
  • Professional certifications (e.g., CMME, SAS Certifications, CAP) and experience in international or applied projects will be advantageous.
