Inb4 "what kind of CS is this?"
I've spent some time the following industries: teaching/training (workplace training, university classroom, work placement, public engagement), farming/animal care/livestock management, arts/arts worker union organising, retail management/warehouse inventory, lab tech, manufacturing. I don't really CS, sorry in advance.
I'm no longer in that location. I'd be looking for wfh, Melbourne(ish) timezone, ideally part time.
Happy to travel anywhere in australia for reasonable amount of startup training and a few meetings a year. Could potentially travel to Melbourne/Adelaide/Ballarat/anywhere along that line for in person stuff a little more regularly.
I'm also unbelievably patient, interested in statistics and have an on the ground understanding of many types of field work. I've done a couple of papers that required me to gather my own data and do the analytics myself. They were first and second year assignments, so essentially tasters of the concept.
I definitely don't know how to do your analysis for your paper, but you wouldn't have to explain the concept of a transect or how to download R.
This is probably very clear from the above, but I am conspicuously well spoken* and presentable**.
Or as I prefer to call it Office Furniture Shaped.
*what utter bullshit this concept is. As if any dialect is inherently less valuable and this is anything other than classism.
**the idea that any human being is not "presentable" and shouldn't be seen in any role is just domestic violence on a systemic scale.
...having done quite a few real papers, fixed other peoples', designed and implemented new field methods in both Australian and Norwegian polar programs...
good luck!
Best advice I can offer in year 4 of crash landing / year 10 of de-orbit for the crime of being good at my work is:
...get to be drinking buddies with someone at exec level at [target organisation]. Or present as exploitable for their personal gain or ego boost in some way.
