Role Description Are you an FHA DE Underwriter who loves strategic file structuring but hates tedious, manual data entry? A fast-scaling, technology-driven independent mortgage lender rewriting the rules of modern lending is looking for a seasoned DE 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, AI-powered workflows that have your back, and a collaborative ops team that makes fast, accurate closings the norm — not the exception. What You'll Do - Master the Pipeline - Own a diverse pipeline of FHA and conventional conforming loans from submission to clear-to-close, with opportunities to underwrite VA, USDA, and bond/grant program files as volume and licensing allow. - Apply sound credit judgment on complex files — income, asset, and liability layering — while leveraging automated workflows that eliminate the low-value manual work that slows most underwriters down. - Be the Expert - Serve as the strategic underwriting resource for loan officers and processors on difficult-to-structure deals, helping the team find the path to approval within guideline parameters. - Maintain zero-defect quality standards across your pipeline while delivering the decisive, consistent turn times that set this lender apart in a competitive market. - Stay current on agency guideline changes (FHA, Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac) and proactively share relevant updates with your production partners. - Elevate Efficiency - Work fluently within Encompass LOS and utilize DU and LPA outputs to support accurate, well-documented credit decisions. - Collaborate closely with processors, LOs, and closing teams in a high-trust, fully virtual environment — contributing to a culture where strong communication replaces micromanagement. Qualifications - Active FHA DE certification with a valid CHUMS ID — this is a firm requirement, not a preferred credential. - 3–5 years of continuous, frontline retail residential mortgage underwriting experience. - Demonstrated mastery of both DU and LPA (Automated Underwriting Systems) and hands-on proficiency with Encompass LOS. - Deep working knowledge of FHA and conventional conforming guidelines; familiarity with VA, 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. Requirements - Active VA SAR or LAPP authority. - Experience with FHA 203k, USDA, or down payment assistance/bond programs. - Jumbo or non-QM underwriting exposure. - Prior experience at an independent mortgage company (IMC/IMB). Benefits - Comprehensive benefits package that includes medical, dental, vision, and 401(k). - Freedom to work from anywhere in the U.S. with a fully remote infrastructure built for it. - Stability, growth, and the kind of speed and decisioning latitude that only a scaling independent lender can offer.
