Weekly Data Science Support

About this task

This streaming and audio company covering technology (1,001–5,000 employees) is looking for a manager Data Scientist for an ongoing part-time engagement of 3–8 h a week. A standing hour for the analytics team's modelling questions.

The company wants a senior person on this without carrying the cost of a full-time role. It publishes content on a schedule, so editorial deadlines are fixed.

The work is fully remote and open to anyone living in an EU country; the team itself works from France. Most people do this on weekday evenings; replies inside the working day are not expected.

What you deliver

• Review the team's models and notebooks, answer questions and unblock two analysts a week.
• A short handover note when the engagement pauses or ends
• Questions collected in one thread, answered within one working day
• A written update every Thursday with what was done, what is next and anything blocked

What a week looks like

• Daily: one hour at a time that suits you, inside the agreed window
• Monday: ten-minute sync if anything is blocked
• Thursday: weekly summary posted to the shared thread

Duration: 6 months, then month by month. Accepted after the walkthrough. Edits requested within three working days are part of the price.
