At Slalom Build, we co-create modern technology and software products with clients who are ready to accelerate their digital transformation. We choose to imagine things made better, and then set out on a journey to realize what's possible. By blending design, product engineering, analytics, and automation, we build the custom-built software and data products of tomorrow.
Slalom Build's Data Engineering capability is focused on injecting intelligence into products, engineering systems that support learning and insight, and creating innovative data products. Within Data Engineering, we help customers build world-class products through effective use of:
- Data Engineering consisting of streaming / real-time data solutions, modern data platforms, and data systems within products (e.g., database systems, graph databases, key-value stores, document databases, and transactional systems).
- Machine learning and artificial intelligence.
We offer a flexible working environment to balance the need to work independently, with some days that may require in-person collaboration at our office.
