• Oversee and refine the tool's data acquisition capabilities, which currently includes web scraping, API usage, and SQL database management. Part of your role will involve enhancing these functions and integrating new database sources as needed. You will also be tasked with improving the tool's capabilities for sophisticated data manipulations and calculations to extract meaningful insights from the data.

• Has great quantitative skills

• Can read, understand, and improve existing code. Since the tool is already developed, a major part of your work will involve adjusting and refining what's already there to increase its efficiency and adapt to evolving project requirements.
• Is an independent thinker who is not afraid to propose and implement new ideas. You will have a great deal of freedom to steer the project's technical development and contribute innovative solutions.
• Has advanced analytical and problem-solving skills.
• Has the ability to work effectively both individually and in a team and communicate complex ideas clearly.
