Careers
SLKone partners with clients to bridge data with decision making to generate enterprise value. What makes SLKone different is how we approach the intersection of business generalist and data scientist. Historically, that has been accomplished through the 'data translator' model where management consultants work with data science teams to derive insights. We challenge that model and believe there have been enough advancements in open-source research, education, and resources to apply data science principles and models to our projects. In other words, we're consultants who can code and see that as the long-term model for success.

What sets SLKone apart
Goals are not executed privately at SLKone. After setting individual goals, team members share their goals with each other and commit to helping one another deliver those goals; everyone succeeds together.
We value fairness and use one formula for all performance rewards. Founders, partners, managers, and consultants all earn within the same operating model.
We work on projects that are meaningful and impactful. We are not a firm that does 'consulting' - we are a firm that solves our clients' problems.
We value work-life harmony and encourage our team members to have a life outside of work. We believe that this allows our team members to be more productive and happy in their personal and professional lives.
We value continuous learning and encourage our team members to learn new skills and knowledge. We believe that this allows our team members to be more effective in their roles and to grow as professionals.
We value collaboration and encourage our team members to work together to deliver the best results for our clients. We believe that this allows our team members to be more effective in their roles and to grow as professionals.
