  • Solid background in data cleaning, normalization, and validation, with experience delivering structured datasets such as CSV, JSON, or Google Sheets.
  • Hands-on experience with LLMs and AI frameworks to support automation and problem-solving.
  • Strong attention to detail and commitment to data accuracy.
  • Self-directed work ethic with the ability to troubleshoot independently.
  • English proficiency at Upper-intermediate (B2) level or above.
  • A GitHub link is a plus.

  • Earn up to $30 per hour equivalent depending on your level and pace of contribution.
