Slate operates a multi-channel news and culture publication built on Node.js, Django, and PostgreSQL, with a podcast network that spans 20+ shows. The project backlog reveals a metrics-first growth focus: mid-funnel measurement, full-funnel mapping, paid acquisition scaling, and social-first video adaptation signal a shift from editorial-driven distribution toward data-informed audience development. Hiring acceleration across engineering, product, and ops (with three mid-level and three C-level open roles) suggests investment in retention and churn reduction—core pain points the org is currently tackling.
