Our Team
Weven: a tech company with a wedding soul
We exist to empower venue hosts to be their best selves every day, for every couple. To do this we get the hard stuff and the boring stuff done for them with our first-of-its-kind venue management system. Our system delivers everything a unique, nontraditional venue needs to be successful: client and event management dashboards, robust messaging capabilities, online payment processing and venue-specific planning tools for their couples. We've developed a proprietary set of technologies to streamline and organize the entire event process, help venues wow clients, and ultimately preserve their most valuable asset: their time. That's running a venue business, made flat out easy.
At Weven, we're a small group of people doing big things. Disrupting a $73bn industry isn't for the faint of heart, and we know a thing or two about what it takes to host a kick-ass wedding, from initial inquiry to event day.

Open Roles
Full Stack Software Engineer I
Boston, MA (Remote considered)
At Weven, we believe that running a unique venue business should be easy, not overwhelming. We are convinced that we can make that dream a reality at scale through technology and automation, while at the same time preserving open, natural spaces by providing secondary income to our venue hosts. Our goal is nothing short of a wedding venue revolution.
We are looking for a full-time engineering hire who will work directly with our Head of Technology to grow our web platform. Are you excited by the idea of using your problem solving and software skills to make a long-lasting impact on couples' lives? Do you dive head-first into new problems, energized by the opportunity to learn quickly? Do you believe in iterating rapidly, considering constant customer feedback, and working together across the entire company to build the best possible product? Do you feel comfortable wearing several hats; writing code, patching immediate bugs, and maintaining AWS-based infrastructure, all while becoming a product expert and helping build the company's future roadmap? If you said "yes" to most of those questions, this is likely the role for you.
Responsibilities Include:
- Building new features from scratch, taking a customer need through design to prototype and iterating on it until customers love it.
- Automating business processes allowing our venues to run their business more efficiently through our platform.
- Contributing to our internal tooling so that we can move even faster.
- Participating in the entire product design process.
You'll be phenomenal in this role if you:
- Have professional experience at a software company doing full-stack software engineering
- Ideally including SQL databases (any dialect) and a Javascript framework (ideally React).
- Experience with GraphQL and AWS is also a plus.
- Dive into problems with an excitement to learn rather than a fear of the unknown.
- Feel comfortable working autonomously and growing a guiding knowledge of the business and product goals.
- Have an interest in product and user experience (UX) design.

Account Executive, Venue Sales
Boston, MA (Remote considered)
The Account Executive is charged with driving sales of new venues to join the Weven platform in a specific region. You will be part of a team each targeting independent regions to develop new venue partnerships in an area that you own. You will be required to intimately understand the functionality and uses of the Weven technology and how it enables venues to increase profits and save time booking and managing weddings. You will be responsible for understanding the needs of each prospective client and ensuring our product is the right solution to help them achieve their goals.
The scope of the role encompasses all elements of sales strategy from lead identification, to sales outreach, and signing of a purchase order. The Account Executive will be able to work within the existing sales processes we have found successful while also being capable to test new strategies and approaches they may identify as more suited for their territory -- run effective A/B tests on new sales approaches from lead identification to email outreach to call scripts. You will report to the Head of Platform Operations.
Core Functions
- Lead Identification -- Identify new venues that could likely benefit from running their business on Weven's venue management platform. Develop outreach methods, emails, cold calls, marketing materials or similar tactics, to bring leads into your sales funnel - whether that is inbound or outbound.
- Sign New Venue Partners -- Account Executives must balance moving prospects through a sales process efficiently from outbound and qualifications to product overviews and demos. Our product is generally not the type of sale that is done after one phone call and that requires diligent followup and ability to understand a prospect's needs to ensure our product can help them. The product is technical and often requires a series of interactions and relationships to get a venue to sign - this can be done via phone, email, video calls and/or venue visits.
- Process Creation -- Efficiently identify best practices in your sales approach, document those practices, test them against alternative methods you create and ultimately document them for others to leverage.
- Product Feedback -- Tie your frontline learnings of venue owners' pain points and goals into feedback on our product and recommendations. Collate and share your learnings with our venue account management and engineering teams to improve our product for our venue partners going forward.
