Woven Solutions adds two leaders

On November 12, Woven Solutions, a provider of technology and software solutions for the national security community, announced that Sarah Shaffer and Matthew McGuinness have joined the company’s leadership team as it embarks on its next phase of expansion following a strategic investment from Falfurrias Management Partners.

Sarah Shaffer, formerly with ManTech, joins Woven to support growth efforts. A seasoned leader in capture and proposal strategy and a past APMP “40 Under 40” honoree, Shaffer brings deep experience in developing and executing federal growth initiatives across the defense and intelligence markets.

Matthew McGuinness, previously with GRVTY and BlueHalo, has been appointed chief financial officer. McGuinness has extensive experience scaling private-equity-backed technology firms, strengthening financial operations, and integrating acquisitions in high-growth national security technology environments.

These appointments come as Woven accelerates its strategic plan to pursue both organic and acquisitive growth, expand its solutions-based delivery model, and increasingly focus on bringing AI capabilities to critical intelligence community missions.

“This new leadership wave reinforces our mission to deliver agile, technically relevant, and mission-driven solutions for our national security customers,” said Ajay Patel, senior partner at Woven Solutions. “Sarah and Matthew’s expertise will enable Woven to accelerate our growth trajectory and better support our key mission partners.”
