Job Description
About Wealthfront Mortgage Operations (MOps)
Wealthfront MOps is built around efficiency, critical problem-solving, and modernizing the lending experience. Our goal is a seamless, tech-enabled mortgage process. Our primary tool is automation.
We automate mortgage origination. We partner with engineers and product leaders to build systems that eliminate manual toil and deliver a self-service mortgage experience. The result: rates significantly below the national average, saving clients thousands over the life of their loans.
We're systems builders, not process followers. Team members execute high-quality mortgage processes while actively identifying opportunities to improve automation — better logic, better design, less toil.
We hire critical thinkers. We want people who don't just want better tools — they think carefully about how every tool should work. Every team member understands the "why" behind each step.
We operate as one integrated unit. We work as a single team with end-to-end fluency across the origination lifecycle. No traditional silos. This cross-functional depth is what lets us move faster, catch problems earlier, and evolve quickly.
Our interview process is intended to be insightful for you and us. We're charting a unique path in home lending, so mutual fit is a top priority. After a conversation with our recruiting team, you will complete a 15-20 minute take-home assignment. From there, you'll meet our mortgage operations leads before a cross-functional final round.
If this sounds like the right fit, we'd love to hear from you.
Wealthfront is seeking a mortgage loan processor to join our team as we build and scale our mortgage lending operations. As a key player on the team you will leverage your expertise to work with existing Wealthfront clients providing excellent service and guiding them through the process with the support of our innovative technology and tools. This position offers an exciting opportunity to be a part of a cutting-edge team in a rapidly growing environment.
