I feel this. Wanna start a side gig just legit no idea how to leverage data skills for it.
Seems like with SWE you can do a lot more. DS not much freelance type work
Upwork?
I’ve been doing Upwork for ~8 years now. Profile has never been an issue.
Put up a profile on Upwork. Finding that first gig can take some time, but once you have a few projects under your belt it gets much easier to find work and even increase your rates. I’ve been doing it for 8 years now. I can net an incremental 2k a month with 6-7 hours per week.
About your company seeing your profile…you can keep it semi-anonymous if it concerns you. My profile contains my first name and last initial. If someone really wanted to, they could figure out it was me. But it hasn’t been an issue in 8 years and I’m not worried about it going forward. I only use my personal assets for work though—no company computer or company-paid cloud accounts.
Some staffing firms offer part-time gigs if that is what you are looking for.
Uber?
I tutored math before and made a few hundred bucks a month.
