Engineering
Leadership Program
What is the Engineering Leadership Program?
We believe the best growth happens in the game, when you’re finding solutions to real-life problems and writing code that’s actually put to work. The Engineering Leadership Program, or ELP, is for junior-level software engineers looking to raise their skillset to become mid-level engineers.
Do work that matters.
We know you’re a different kind of engineer. You want to do more than build your skills and gain experience. You want your work to make a difference. The Engineering Leadership Program is where your talents and passions could intersect. This program is designed to develop your engineering skills and give you the opportunity to work closely with different engineering teams. You will be part of creating digital products that impact tens of millions of people every single day.
Here’s what to expect.
We have a wide variety of roles available for engineers who are eager to gain experience while working on products that have a Kingdom impact. You’ll be led by an experienced engineer during your journey through the program. You’ll hone your craft daily by tackling challenging issues and collaborating with designers, project managers, and fellow engineers to find the best solutions.

Got more questions? We’ve got more answers.
- Is ELP a paid program?
Yes. ELP participants have full-time Life.Church employee status for the duration of the program.
- Can I participate in ELP remotely?
Due to the intensive nature of the program, participants will need to complete the program in person at the Life.Church Central Office in Edmond, OK. The Life.Church Central Office is home to the Life.Church digital teams as well as YouVersion.
- Do I have to be able to code in order to apply?
We would prefer some coding experience, but we can coach you in coding and other engineering tasks. However, we can’t coach passion. You’ll need to bring that to the table yourself.
- Is ELP an internship? Can I get college credit for completing this program?
No. ELP is a full-time employment opportunity, not an internship, and you will not be able to receive college credit for participating in the program. However, Life.Church does offer full-time and part-time internships at our Central Office and at each of our physical locations.
