Slate is a digital-native publisher running a web platform (Node.js, Vue, React Native, PostgreSQL) alongside a podcast distribution operation built on Simplecast. The tech stack reveals a hybrid editorial workflow: Notion for planning, Asana for task management, HubSpot for audience engagement, and Amplitude for analytics. Active hiring across product, engineering, and legal—with equal weight on leadership and junior roles—suggests simultaneous scaling of both editorial operations and platform architecture, corroborated by ongoing work on next-iteration site redesign, mid-funnel metrics, and paid subscriber expansion.
