Questions

Good to know.

Do I need a cover letter?
No. The application asks a few honest questions instead, and takes about ten minutes. If you're selected, the next step is a 15 to 30 minute screening interview, then a personality assessment and a skills assessment.
Where are the jobs?
Each role lists where it's based. Right now every open role is based in Atlanta, Georgia: you'll need to live in the Atlanta area and work with the team in person at least three days a week.
What is the Deeper Signals assessment?
A short online assessment of personality, values and how you like to work. There are no right or wrong answers: it helps us see how you work best and how you would fit the team.
What is the Ropes AI assessment?
For our engineering roles, a hands-on project built from the role itself, the kind of work you would actually do here, instead of trivia or a whiteboard puzzle. The same tool we use to vet the engineers we place with clients.
What benefits do you offer?
It depends on the role, and each listing says. Founding roles, such as our CTO and COO, are full time and compensated with a co-founder's equity stake. Salaried roles, such as our AI engineer, come with a 401(k), subject to plan eligibility, and health benefits.
What happens to my information?
Your résumé is virus-scanned before anyone opens it and kept in private storage. Optional self-identification answers are stored separately, with no link to your application. You can ask us to delete your application at hello@sixthwavesolutions.com; we handle requests subject to the records the law requires us to keep.

Sixth Wave LLC is an equal opportunity employer. We welcome applicants of every race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, age, disability and veteran status. To discuss a reasonable accommodation at any step, write to hello@sixthwavesolutions.com.
