Required:
• Bachelor’s, Master’s, or PhD degree in Computer Science, Machine Learning, Data Science, Statistics, Mathematics, Engineering, or a closely related quantitative field.
• Strong grasp of English to follow guidelines, communicate with teams, and provide clear technical feedback.
• 3+ years of professional experience in Python development, machine learning, data science, ML engineering, model evaluation, research engineering, technical review, or ML education.
• Strong understanding of Python fundamentals such as data structures, functions, classes, iterators, comprehensions, exception handling, virtual environments, package management, testing, and debugging.
• Strong understanding of ML topics such as supervised/unsupervised learning, feature engineering, train/test splits, cross-validation, model selection, data leakage, regression, classification, clustering, metrics, bias/variance, regularization, and reproducibility.
• Ability to evaluate ML content against detailed rubrics and identify issues such as flawed methodology, wrong metrics, data leakage, non-reproducible code, invalid assumptions, hallucinated APIs, misleading conclusions, or incomplete explanations.
• Comfortable working in fast-moving remote environments using Discord, Google Sheets, Google Docs, trackers, dashboards, GitHub, and project management systems.
• Highly organized and able to maintain style guides, trackers, FAQs, onboarding materials, honeypots, calibration tasks, and quality documentation.
