Lead Data Scientist

$160k - $200k
Full-time

OneSix - External

Role Description

OneSix is looking for a Lead Data Scientist to drive ML solutions for clients ranging from scrappy startups to Fortune 500s. This is a true player-coach role — you'll make serious technical contributions and lead a team, mentor junior scientists, and own the client relationship from scoping through delivery.

  • Own client engagements end-to-end: scope the problem, build the solution, manage expectations, and deliver.
  • Lead small project teams and serve as the technical and strategic point of contact for clients.
  • Design, build, and deploy ML solutions across a range of domains and use cases in a landscape where no two projects are the same.
  • Work across the full deployment spectrum including managed cloud ML platforms (SageMaker, Vertex AI, Azure ML) and containerized Python solutions running on raw infrastructure.
  • Mentor junior and senior data scientists and help shape how we practice ML at OneSix.
  • Evaluate emerging tools and techniques and bring the right ones to bear on client problems.

Qualifications

  • 6+ years of hands-on ML experience with a track record of shipping models to production.
  • Background in consulting, professional services, or client-facing delivery strongly preferred.
  • Strong suit in at least one area: predictive/classical ML, computer vision, or LLM/agentic systems.
  • Comfortable across the full deployment stack: managed cloud services and building from scratch with Python, Docker, and EC2-style infrastructure.
  • Fluency in Python and SQL; comfortable with Git and frameworks like PyTorch, Scikit-learn, or Hugging Face.
  • Experience with experiment tracking and ML lifecycle management (MLflow, Weights & Biases, or similar).
  • M.S. or Ph.D. in a quantitative field, or equivalent depth demonstrated through shipped work.
  • Strong communicator who can make a complex model legible to a non-technical executive and to a skeptical engineer.
  • Must be based in the US or Canada.

Benefits

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