/n

- You will design systems supporting customer onboarding, loan origination, credit decisioning, documents, workflows, payments, external integrations, servicing and collections.

/n

- Build resilient integrations with lenders, banks, payment systems, bureaus, KYC providers, account aggregators,



eSign providers and external agencies.

/n

- Build event-driven processes and ensure operational systems produce reliable business events.

/n

- Integrate rules, analytical models and decision intelligence into business workflows.

/n

- Design for security, consent, auditability, observability and regulatory requirements.

/n

/n

- Experience reasoning about distributed systems, asynchronous processing and failure scenarios.

/n

- Ability to design maintainable systems from ambiguous business requirements.

/n

- Familiarity with cloud infrastructure, containers, monitoring, security and automated delivery.

Strong system-design ability and engineering fundamentals matter more than familiarity with every technology we use. /n Building in an AI-native environment /n Weaver is an early adopter of agentic software development. Our teams use frontier models across architecture, implementation, testing, review, documentation and production operations. /n Previous experience with agentic development is not required.

You will receive access to modern tools, generous frontier-model usage and support from a team actively developing new ways of building high-quality software. /n We expect you to bring strong engineering fundamentals, critical thinking and ownership. We will help you learn how to apply those strengths in an AI-native development environment. /n Why join Weaver? /n /n

- Build consequential systems from a clean slate.

/n

- Work within an established, profitable business with patient capital.

/n

- Influence foundational product and architecture decisions.

/n
