About this role
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.
