Job Description

DESCRIPTION

We are looking for detail-oriented, organized, and responsible individuals who are eager to apply their talents and skills to help develop state of the art forecasting models and estimate them on large and complicated data sets. Knowledge of time series econometrics and experience with Python are necessary; familiarity with MATLAB and Bayesian estimation techniques, especially for state space models, are preferable.

These are full-time positions at 40 hours per week, with compensation being awarded on an hourly basis.
