About the role

Provide technical support across CAPRED’s data science, data engineering, and applied AI work.
Help build reliable data pipelines, maintain digital data products, develop prototype AI tools, and strengthen internal capability to experiment safely and productively with data and AI.

Support the ingestion, cleaning, transformation, validation, and integration of data from structured and unstructured sources, including databases, spreadsheets, APIs, web sources, PDFs, survey data, and high-frequency indicators.
Assist in building and maintaining reproducible data pipelines using Python, SQL, and related tools, with appropriate checks for data quality, consistency, and version control.
Work on databases to store, query, document, and maintain analytical datasets used for policy analysis, dashboards, and AI applications.
Support macroeconomic, trade, investment, enterprise, geospatial, and other policy-relevant data analysis under the guidance of senior staff.

Requirements

This position is designed for an early-career professional with strong technical foundations, curiosity, and a willingness to learn through practice and mentoring.
The successful candidate is not expected to be an expert in every tool from the start, but must demonstrate a strong learning mindset, a positive professional attitude, disciplined problem-solving, and the ability to learn independently.
The role requires someone who is willing to test new ideas, learn from mistakes, document lessons, and help translate experimentation into practical innovation that improves CAPRED’s work processes.
