* Familiarity with using the Python programming language.

* Ability to evaluate a Python package for usability and documentation quality.

We like to have a mix of technical and usability focus in our reviews so it’s ok if you don’t have all of the above skills! And if you are interested in peer review but have never reviewed before, we offer a mentorship program where we will pair you up with someone who has more experience reviewing code. From this experience you can learn more and empower yourself with code review skills. Software review skills are generally useful in data science, so they are skills worth investing in!

It's critical to our mission that our Editorial Board have a combined expertise in various scientific domains, technical expertise in Python packaging, awareness of the importance of documentation in package usability, and awareness of the importance of CI/test suites in order to ensure robust software development. We do not expect any single editor to be an expert in all of these areas!
