Remote Senior Mortgage Underwriter (DE/LAPP/SAR)
Quick Summary
The Opportunity Are you a Senior Underwriter who loves strategic file structuring but hates tedious,
Are you a Senior Underwriter who loves strategic file structuring but hates tedious, manual data entry? An independent mortgage lender rewriting the rules of modern lending is looking for a seasoned DE/LAPP/SAR Underwriter who's ready to trade the grind of rote data tasks for the kind of high-judgment, complex underwriting work that actually challenges you. This is a fully remote role with real decisioning authority, a collaborative ops team that makes fast, accurate closings the norm — not the exception.
Responsibilities
~1 min readThis isn't an underwriting seat where you'll spend your days pushing paper through a bureaucratic committee process — this lender has made a deliberate investment to give underwriters their professional lives back. You'll have the freedom to work from anywhere in the U.S. with a fully remote infrastructure built for it, plus a comprehensive benefits package that includes medical, dental, vision, and 401(k). What you'll actually get here is the rare combination of stability, growth, and the kind of speed and decisioning latitude that only a scaling independent lender can offer.
Requirements
~1 min readDemonstrated mastery of both DU and LPA (Automated Underwriting Systems) and hands-on proficiency with Encompass LOS
Deep working knowledge of FHA, VA and conventional conforming guidelines; familiarity with USDA, or bond/grant programs is a meaningful plus
A self-directed, high-accountability work style — you're energized by autonomy, not paralyzed by it, and you hold yourself to a high standard without someone looking over your shoulder
Strong interpersonal and written communication skills; the ability to explain a complex credit decision clearly to an LO is just as important as getting the decision right
Must be authorized to work in the United States
