Role Overview

    • Document underwriting rationale, risk profiles, and exception handling.

  • GSE Mastery: Deep, hands-on knowledge of Fannie Mae DU and/or Freddie Mac LP guidelines.

  • Consulting Approach: Comfortable in an iterative environment, providing structured feedback to product and engineering teams.
