Hi All, Happy Holidays! I've a question. Is this even possible to get a part time job as Data Platform Engineer with flexible enough schedule, oriented more on result? Let's say design data models, ETL pipelines, build metrics and so on. I have never seen anything like this proposed, all want 8 hrs, 9-5. Please suggest if you aware about something like this, where/how to search for it? I'm experienced data/software engineer with 15+ YOE.

Go on indeed and look for the postings made by no-name recruiters. They tend to post the same positions more than once.

Now think through what that really means. It means their end client is willing to work with random riff-raff in the recruitment space. Which means the end client is probably engaging some consulting company and these roles just need to be filled.

Everyone is out to make their slice of the pie and really don’t care if you’re over-employed. If someone says they’re hiring full timers then that means you’ll have a W-2 agreement. Ask them “what is the maximum they could give you on 1099?”

As a real independent contractor you can multiply your hourly rate by 50-60% and tell them that that’s your new hourly rate as a contractor.

I don't have your skillet, but most folks in that realm look for contract work as opposed to full time work. Contract work tends to be more flexible and favorable toward results over time punched. I would follow this model of searching for contract work and ask very good questions during the interview/hiring process. You could also consider freelance on sites like Fiverr or Upwork.

Good luck!

Does anyone have resources on understanding whether/how legal advocacy matters, how it actually achieves what it purports to achieve?

Seems you can make your client’s case worse (e.g., by missing a deadline or some egregious error), but that’s about it. So, practice of law feels quite pointless. What am I missing?
