Slight

Bridging the interaction boundary between data teams and domain experts.

Who We Are

Create business value by bringing data, documentation and fast and robust iteration to your domain experts where they are, not where your data tools want them to be.

Company Values

  • Commitment, Responsibility and Balance
    We genuinely believe in work-life balance and deeply value our time and commitments outside of Slight. Within the job, we recognise the benefit of making space for deep work.
    Individually, we are responsible for our actions and doing our best to hold up our commitment to one another. But we take responsibility for outcomes as a whole — successes are shared broadly and we reflect on missteps with a critical eye but do so without blame.
  • Encouragement, Trust and Curiosity
    To succeed, we’ll need to be courageous and curious: to tackle tricky challenges, to learn new technology, to speak up when we disagree.
    To support this, we aim to be trusting, open, sincere, and fearless. We recognise that is only possible with the right support. We are all responsible for supporting each other in leaving our comfort zones - after all, how else could we have the necessary experimentation, innovation and ownership?
  • Diversity
    Of experience, background, opinion, and expertise. Diversity both results in and is a result of empathy, not a box checked. The pipeline isn't an excuse. This is not some altruistic exercise either - we truly believe this is better for our company.
  • Autonomy, Mastery and Purpose
    We believe our company's nature is suited to those who are anti-complacent, those with strong intrinsic motivation and focus, with a desire to solve real problems.
    We never want to stop learning, and we always want to remain proud of our work.

Company Perks

  • Salary and Equity
    $140,000 annual salary, for everyone at the company, along with generous equity sharing.
    We agree with Oxide's Bryan that this may not scale forever, but that is OK with us. This number should also increase relatively quickly as we grow.
  • Location and Hours
    We're fully remote! We only require that you overlap with the morning in Eastern Time, from 10:00 till 12:00.
  • Time Off
    We have two four day weeks a month - the last Friday of the month and the following Monday (so a four-day weekend every month). We have 18 vacation days off, national holidays, plus two flex holiday days off.
  • Health Care and Family Leave
    Slight offers comprehensive health, dental and vision options. We offer completely covered plans, and also highly subsidized higher tier plans.
    Paid Family Leave: three months paid time off, which can be taken flexibly from one month prior to due date up to twelve months after birth. Flexible leave can mean full days off and/or part-time hours.
  • Allowances and Budget
    Along with the company laptop, we offer a $1,500 per year flexible work-from-home budget that can be spent on external monitors, desks, chairs, mats, or any needed peripherals (webcams etc). You get to keep one third of whatever you don't spend - e.g. we'd add $500 to your end of year paycheck if you didn't spend from this budget.
    We also offer a $500 per year learning budget for any training or courses you think will benefit you (courses, books, conferences etc). Finally we provide $600 a year for fitness and gym classes.
