Job Title

Data Scientist

Location

Oshkosh, Wisconsin, or New Hudson, Michigan (HYBRID - 3 days onsite and 2 remote)

Direct Hire + Benefits + 10% Bonus

Interview process

Teams screening interview with HRBP

Teams interview with HM

Onsite interview with HRBP, HM and management.

Core requirements

5+ years of experience; 6 years may be appropriate, according to the manager.

AI-savvy and business-savvy, with strong business relationships and experience working directly with business stakeholders—not solely back-end development.

Ability to manage work end to end and personally deploy and deliver the solution.

Shared considerations

Both roles are individual-contributor positions, not manager roles.

The manager is open to candidates who began in a business function or as a business analyst and later moved into IT, analytics, or data science, as well as candidates from consulting.

The roles are described as hybrid

3 days onsite and 2 remote, based in Oshkosh, Wisconsin, or New Hudson, Michigan. Relocation is acceptable if the candidate is willing to relocate; the manager said these are not commuting positions.

Mentoring and executive-level communication are more central to the Principal role than to the Lead role.
