Technical Product Strategist
About the Company
At Slate Technologies we are bringing fresh minds and tools to the world of Smart Buildings, Smart Infrastructure, Sustainability, architecture, and construction. With a credible team from world-renowned institutions, we are leading the way in transforming the way buildings and Infrastructure come to life.
Better decisions happen in construction when you have better context, without context stakeholders are unable to see the right information, at the right time to make confident and quick choices. That's why we created Slate, a Virtual Digital Assistant that helps you identify and evaluate information in your business so that you can make better decisions, save time and money, and improve project outcomes.
Our mission at Slate is to help improve each construction professional’s impact on construction productivity by revealing the timely context that helps them make earlier, better decisions. Slate uses AI to execute multi-dimensional analysis across internal and external data sources. This includes public data such as weather, labor, and traffic with the dark data locked in silos and non-integrated systems within their own and sub-contractor organizations.

Are you interested in putting your technical expertise and experience to use to collaboratively work with industry to surface change management challenges and opportunities, and work with Slate teams to turn them into innovative solutions? If so, we have a role for you!
You’ll be a leading expert on how capturing and leveraging change is a gateway to positive outcomes for not only a current project, but a source for Slate Insights that can enable positive change across a portfolio. You’ll provide industry and product expertise, as well as thought and technical solutions as part of a growing and diversified Slate Team. You’ll have experience, expertise, or an interest in continuing to develop customer relationships by formulating world class solutions for their AEC projects utilizing Slate’s AEC platform.
