About this Opportunity

CrowdDoing Medicinal Foods seeks Amazon Web Services (AWS) ecosystem experts who have experience using python as the primary programming language for analysis.

About the project:

  • Use citizen science to gather and validate data about the different foods and food-preparations from both traditional knowledge and current scientific inquiry.
  • Primary skills:

  • Ability to access/interact with database directly. Solutions include:
  • PG Admin - SQL graphical user interface.
  • SQL Alchemy - Python Json library package to work directly with relational databases.
  • Ability to export data from rds. Solutions include:
  • CSV - Preferred, due to it’s tabular format.
  • JSON - Viable if used with python, but would likely require transformation into tabular format.
  • Ability to perform analysis on a static portion of the database. Solutions include:
  • Allow data to be queried for a certain time period.
  • Clone rds and periodically update it, to create a pseudo data warehouse.

    The only way CrowdDoing.world can realize its impact potential is through virtual volunteers,service learners(http://blog.reframeit.com/service-learning-and-skilled-volunteering/), and micro-leaders (https://real-leaders.com/leveraging-micro-leadership-to-make-aspirational-goals-achievable/) coming together.

    See this brief video aboutMicro-leadership at CrowdDoing (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mhdB2YJ8Ocs&app=desktop). Micro-leadership means that each person adopts a dimension of responsibility for a collective problem in our society through collaborating on that area creatively individually and together through social innovation.
