The Applications Fellowship encompasses multiple engineering teams responsible for building and scaling our user-facing products: Payments, Scheduling, Forms, Business Experience, Mobile Apps, and Revenue Cycle Management (RCM). You will work across these teams as a technical leader, partnering with Engineering Managers, Staff Engineers, and cross-functional stakeholders to drive architectural coherence and strategic technical initiatives.
This position is hybrid (Lehi, UT) or Remote (US-based).
Reports to: Sr. Director of Engineering
WHAT YOU WILL OWN
Technical Strategy & Architecture
Own the multi-year technical vision for Payments, Scheduling, Forms, Business Experience and RCM application platforms, ensuring architectural decisions position Weave for scale, reliability, and competitive advantage.
Drive architectural coherence across multiple teams, identifying and resolving cross-system dependencies and technical debt at the platform level.
Lead technical due diligence for major initiatives, including build-vs-buy decisions, vendor evaluations, and platform migrations.
Cross-Team Problem Solving
Identify and solve company-level technical problems that span organizational boundaries—the problems that are too complex, too cross-cutting, or too ambiguous for any single team to own.
Compile information across systems, teams, and projects to develop comprehensive solutions with extensive validation, rollback, and testing plans.
Forecast project costs in time, money, and opportunity cost; account for impacts across the business.
Strategic Technical Leadership
Monitor the industry landscape, anticipate where high-scale customer experience and transactional platforms are heading, and ensure Weave stays ahead of the curve.
Cut through noise and hype to identify genuine strategic value; advocate for and lead key initiatives that prepare Weave for emerging challenges.
Shape company-wide standards for engineering excellence, observability, and reliability in distributed systems.
Mentorship & Organizational Capability
Actively mentor Staff and Senior Engineers across the fellowship, developing the next generation of technical leaders.
Elevate architectural thinking across teams through design reviews, documentation standards, and hands-on guidance.
Build organizational capability that persists beyond your individual contributions.
WHAT YOU WILL NEED TO ACCOMPLISH THE JOB
15+ years of software engineering experience with progressive technical leadership scope.
Track record of leading cross-team technical initiatives that delivered measurable business outcomes.
Demonstrated ability to influence without authority, build consensus across organizational boundaries, and translate technical tradeoffs into business terms.
Deep expertise in distributed systems architecture, including building and operating services that handle hundreds of millions of transactions and terabytes of data.
Proven experience with event streaming and messaging infrastructure (Kafka, Google Pub/Sub, or similar) at significant scale.
Strong background in scalable data stores—both relational (PostgreSQL at scale, Vitess, Spanner) and NoSQL (Bigtable, Redis, etc.).
Operational experience with cloud-native infrastructure on GCP or AWS, including Kubernetes, infrastructure-as-code, and highly available system design.
Solid backend engineering foundation (Go preferred; Python, Java, or C# acceptable).
WHAT WILL MAKE US LOVE YOU
Background in compliance-heavy environments (healthcare, fintech) with experience navigating regulatory requirements in technical design.
Experience shaping AI/ML infrastructure or integrating AI capabilities into production systems.
History of external technical leadership: open source contributions, conference speaking, or published technical writing.
Strong opinions, loosely held—you bring conviction to technical discussions while remaining genuinely open to better ideas.
Expertise in data platform architecture: streaming pipelines, data lakes, warehouses, or distributed analytics.
