Part Time Remote Data Science information

How do part-time remote data scientists typically collaborate with full-time team members and stay aligned on project goals?

Part-time remote data scientists often use collaboration tools like Slack, Zoom, and project management platforms to communicate regularly with full-time team members. They participate in scheduled check-ins, contribute to shared documentation, and frequently update progress on assigned tasks to ensure alignment with project goals. Clear communication and proactive scheduling help address challenges such as different time zones and limited overlapping hours. This structure supports strong teamwork and keeps part-time contributors integrated into the broader data science workflow.

What is the difference between Part Time Remote Data Science vs Part Time Remote Data Analysis?

AspectPart Time Remote Data SciencePart Time Remote Data Analysis
Required CredentialsBachelor's or higher in Data Science, Statistics, or related fields; sometimes certifications in machine learning or data analysisBachelor's in Data Analysis, Statistics, or related fields; certifications in Excel, SQL, or data visualization tools

Part Time Remote Data Science involves more technical skills like machine learning and programming, while Part Time Remote Data Analysis emphasizes interpreting data and creating reports. Both roles are remote and part-time but differ in technical complexity and focus areas.

What is a part time remote data science job?

A part time remote data science job involves working with data to analyze, interpret, and generate insights for organizations, but on a flexible, reduced hour schedule and entirely from a remote location. Typical tasks may include data cleaning, statistical analysis, building machine learning models, and creating data visualizations. These roles are ideal for individuals seeking work-life balance, students, or professionals looking to supplement their income while working from home. Employers often require proficiency in programming languages like Python or R, experience with data tools, and strong analytical skills.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a Part Time Remote Data Scientist, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Part Time Remote Data Scientist, you need a solid understanding of statistics, programming (typically Python or R), and data analysis, usually reinforced by a degree in a relevant field or equivalent work experience. Familiarity with tools such as SQL, Jupyter Notebooks, and machine learning libraries like scikit-learn or TensorFlow, as well as version control systems like Git, is commonly expected. Strong problem-solving skills, effective communication, and self-motivation are crucial for managing projects independently and collaborating remotely. These skills enable you to deliver actionable insights and value to organizations while maintaining productivity and accountability in a flexible, remote environment.

The Stress, Trauma, and Resilience Program (STaR Lab) at the San Francisco VA Health Care System is seeking a Research Psychologist to serve as a scientific collaborator across studies on PTSD/trauma, sleep/insomnia, fear learning and extinction, and TBI. This role is methods- and team-science–focused, supporting both in-lab and remote psychophysiology and translating multimodal data into publishable findings and competitive grants. This position is part-time, intermittent.

Essential Functions:

  • Collaborate on study design: refine aims, endpoints, and mechanistic models; co-develop experimental paradigms (e.g., fear conditioning/extinction).
  • Lead psychophysiology operations: develop SOPs; train staff/trainees; oversee quality control for acquisition and scoring.
  • Guide analysis strategy: build/oversee preprocessing and feature extraction pipelines; integrate physiology with clinical and sleep outcomes; partner with statisticians/data scientists as needed.
  • Scholarly output: co-lead manuscripts, abstracts, and conference presentations; write clear, reproducible methods.
  • Grant support: contribute to mechanistic aims and measurement/analysis sections for pilot and multi-site proposals.
  • Mentorship & team science: participate in lab meetings; mentor trainees in psychophysiology methods and scientific writing.

  • Measurement/Methods (examples): EDA, ECG/HR/HRV, EMG, respiration/startle, facial coding; remote PPG/wearables; integration with actigraphy/PSG (as applicable) and symptom/behavioral outcomes.

  • Effort: Primarily research collaboration and scientific output; limited clinical activity only if relevant to funding/service needs.

Job Requirements:

  • PhD/PsyD in clinical psychology or closely related field.
  • Demonstrated research productivity and strong quantitative/writing skills.
  • Experience in psychophysiology and/or mechanistic clinical/translational research (PTSD/trauma, sleep, fear learning, TBI).

The work environment for this position will include an indoor office and a medical research environment.  It may include some minor annoyances such as noise, temperature variations, etc. The incumbent may sustain posture in standing or seated position and may utilize a computer terminal for prolonged periods of time.

VA Onboarding Requirements:

NCIRE is an affiliate organization of the San Francisco VA Health Care System (SFVAHCS), which requires all candidates to complete SFVA onboarding in addition to NCIRE's onboarding process. The SFVA is a federal agency that requires a federal background check, occupational health clearance, vaccines and immunizations, and drug testing for certain positions. Drug testing may include screening for marijuana which remains an illegal substance according to federal law.  The failure to pass required drug testing will disqualify candidates from employment.

The base wage range for this position is $47.54-$73.71 per hour. The wage actually offered to a successful candidate will take into account various relevant and non-discriminatory business factors including, without limitation, the candidate’s geographic location, job-related experience, knowledge, and skills, and education, as well as internal equity considerations.
