Technological scout for Sherweb exploring modern software architectures and innovative technologies. Building proofs of concept and collaborating with architects to transition ideas toward productization.
Responsibilities
Act as Sherweb’s dedicated technological scout, continuously evaluating emerging software technologies, platforms, and architectural patterns; both inside and outside Sherweb’s current ecosystem
Build proofs of concept (PoCs) and experimental prototypes to validate ideas, de-risk new approaches, and explore innovative concepts without immediate production constraints
Explore new domains even when there is no immediate product plan, purely to understand the underlying concepts and assess long-term relevance (e.g., experimenting with projects like OpenClaw even if they may never be adopted internally)
Serve as a bridge between exploration and execution: once a technology shows potential, collaborate with and involve other Sherweb architects to help bring the idea to life within Sherweb’s context
Perform continuous technological watch on modern software architecture, cloud platforms, AI agents, orchestration systems, MCP servers, developer tooling, and emerging programming models
Experiment hands-on with new technologies by: Writing exploratory code, Building isolated prototypes, Creating proof-of-concept architectures
Design and document experimental solution architectures to clearly explain: What problem the technology solves, How it works, Where it could (or could not) fit within Sherweb’s ecosystem
Perform early feasibility studies, favoring fast iteration, rapid learning, and “fail fast” approaches when appropriate
Prepare lightweight technical briefings and architecture notes to share findings with Sherweb architects and leadership
Work largely independently while maintaining strong alignment with the VP, Platform & Engineering
When appropriate, collaborate with other architects to transition validated ideas toward broader adoption or productization
Requirements
University degree in Computer Science (or equivalent experience)
10+ years of hands-on technical experience in software development and/or solution architecture
Strong experience designing and experimenting with modern software architectures, including cloud-native and distributed systems
Demonstrated experience evaluating, testing, and experimenting with emerging technologies, not just consuming mature ones
Excellent coding ability and comfort building prototypes alone from scratch
Proficiency in both spoken and written English; French proficiency is considered an asset.
