Role Overview

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

    • Host virtual workshops or Q&A sessions to transfer domain knowledge to cross-functional teams. 
Required Qualifications

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

  • Communication: Exceptional verbal and written skills to articulate underwriting logic and decision processes.
  • Consulting Approach: Comfortable in an iterative environment, providing structured feedback to product and engineering teams.
