- An active professional CAD licence of your own (required).
- Comfortable with Python and GitHub.
- English at B2 level or above.
Project time expectations
For this project, tasks are estimated to require around 10–20 hours per week during active phases, based on project requirements. This is an estimate, not a guaranteed workload, and applies only while the project is active.
Compensation
On this project, contributors can earn up to $69 per hour equivalent , depending on their level and pace of contribution.
Compensation varies across projects depending on scope, complexity, and required expertise. Please note that other projects on the platform may offer different earning levels based on their requirements.
Why this freelance opportunity might be a great fit for you?
- Work fully remote on your own schedule with just a laptop and stable internet connection.
- Apply your expertise to real-world technology projects while gaining experience building high-quality solutions for a global platform.
