Senior Data Scientist 

OneSix is looking for a Senior Data Scientist to build and deploy cutting-edge ML solutions for a diverse client base. You'll work alongside engineers and scientists to tackle complex problems, push the state of the art, and help shape how we do ML at OneSix. While this isn't a people management role, you'll serve as a technical anchor on your team — mentoring others and influencing project direction.

What You'll Do

  • Research, design, and build ML models across a range of use cases — we work with clients across industries and problem types
  • Work across the full deployment spectrum: managed cloud ML platforms (SageMaker, Vertex AI, Azure ML) and containerized solutions built from scratch in Python on raw infrastructure
  • Collaborate with engineers to integrate models into production environments and uphold MLOps best practices
  • Preprocess and analyze large datasets; think critically about data quality and what it means for model reliability
  • Contribute to technical discussions across the team, fostering a culture of shared learning and continuous improvement
  • Translate complex ML concepts clearly for both technical collaborators and non-technical client stakeholders

What You Bring

  • 4+ years of hands-on ML experience with a track record of shipping models to production
  • You have a strong suit in at least one area — predictive/classical ML, computer vision, or LLM/agentic systems — and you’re genuinely curious about adjacent domains
  • Strong Python and SQL skills, production-code instincts, and Git fluency; R or C++ a plus
  • Comfortable across the full deployment stack: managed cloud services and containerized solutions built from scratch (Docker, EC2-style environments)
  • Deep understanding of ML algorithms, statistical modeling, and optimization
  • M.S. in a quantitative field, or equivalent depth demonstrated through shipped work
  • Clear communicator who can explain their methodology and defend their choices
  • Must be based in the US or Canada

Compensation / Benefits

  • Competitive compensation
  • Company-paid medical, vision, dental, and wellness benefits for employees 
  • 401k Employer match
  • Company-provided home office equipment
  • Flexible vacation and sick days
  • Team-oriented and supportive working environment   
  • Company-sponsored events and swag

This position offers a base salary in the range of $140,000–$180,000 USD annually, depending on experience and location. Compensation may vary based on factors including geographic location, level of experience, skills, and performance. This salary range reflects base pay only and does not include any additional compensation such as bonuses, equity, or benefits.

A "recently separated veteran" means any veteran during the three-year period beginning on the date of such veteran's discharge or release from active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval, or air service.

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 04/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
