Python Developer (Data & Statistics)

Are you excited about using Python to solve real-world data problems?

At SME Careers, we connect subject-matter experts with flexible, remote opportunities in AI development and training. Join SME Careers on a groundbreaking AI-driven research project where your coding skills will directly shape the way data is analyzed and understood. This is a fully remote, flexible role where you can apply your problem-solving skills, work independently, and make a measurable impact.

About the Role:

We are looking for a Mid-Level Python Developer to join our AI-driven statistical research project. In this role, you’ll build scripts that perform core statistical analysis on data extracted from PDFs and web sources.

This role is perfect if you:

• Enjoy applying Python to practical, real-world data challenges.
• Like working independently while collaborating with a distributed team.
• Thrive on problem-solving and turning formulas into working code.

Responsibilities:

• Write Python scripts using NumPy and vanilla Python to perform statistical analysis.
• Implement custom statistical functions (e.g., chi-square tests, geometric mean, correlations).
• Carry out linear regression without external ML libraries.
• Perform data transformations (inflation adjustments, date mapping, digit extraction).
• Document your reasoning and ensure results are clear, reproducible, and reliable.
• Collaborate with data annotators to process and analyze extracted datasets.

Your Profile

• 2–4 years of professional experience in Python development, data analysis, or applied statistics.
• Proficiency with NumPy for array operations and statistical calculations.
• Strong ability to implement formulas directly from documentation.
• Solid understanding of probability, regression, and hypothesis testing.
• Excellent communication and documentation skills in English.
• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Statistics, Mathematics, Economics, or a related field (preferred).
