The role, as AfterQuery describes it

This is a remote, project-based role for economics professionals with 1–3 years of experience. You’ll complete work similar to what you’d do in applied economics, econometrics, policy analysis, or data analytics roles—using real datasets to build models, run causal and statistical analyses, and generate clear insights. Projects run over the next 2–3 weeks, are fully asynchronous, and are assigned on a project-by-project basis, with an expected commitment of 10–20 hours per week for the projects you accept. This role offers highly competitive pay, exposure to real-world data problems, and a strong opportunity to strengthen your resume.
