I really wouldn't worry about it - I've been using Python for data work for the last 5 years or so and I have to look stuff all the time. Eventually the basic stuff sticks but it's like any kind of coding, I don't think anyone ever hits the point where they hardly ever have to Google stuff.
One useful tip I can suggest is to create a repo for useful code snippets, so if you ever find yourself doing something new that you think you might need again, just spend a bit of time commenting and describing it and add it to the repo. That way instead of having to spend time searching you'll hopefully remember doing it before and be able to find it easily.
