Job description

Come build at the intersection of AI and fintech. At Ocrolus, we’re on a mission to help lenders automate workflows with confidence—streamlining how financial institutions evaluate borrowers and enabling faster, more accurate lending decisions.

Our AI workflow and analytics platform for lenders is trusted at scale, processing nearly one million credit applications every month across small business, mortgage, and consumer lending. By integrating state-of-the-art open- and closed-source AI models with our human-in-the-loop verification engine, Ocrolus captures data from financial documents with over 99% accuracy. Thanks to our advanced fraud detection and comprehensive cash flow and income analytics, our customers achieve greater efficiency in risk management, and provide expanded access to credit—ultimately creating a more inclusive financial system.

Trusted by more than 400 customers—including industry leaders like Better Mortgage, Brex, Enova, Nova Credit, PayPal, Plaid, SoFi, and Square—Ocrolus stands at the forefront of AI innovation in fintech. Join us, and help redefine how the world’s most innovative lenders do business.

Help drive growth across our Mortgage BU, one of Ocrolus's largest and fastest-moving segments. You'll partner directly with the VP of Mortgage Product to accelerate execution across the portfolio, owning strategy and delivery for a significant set of products while ensuring customers experience one cohesive product vision. You'll push how AI automates the mortgage workflow while keeping humans in control of the decisions that matter and innovate to create and deliver value end-to-end in the mortgage manufacturing process. Beyond building great products, you’ll raise the bar for product thinking, customer discovery, prioritization, and execution across the Mortgage team.

Why this role?

Mortgage is being rebuilt around AI in real time, and Ocrolus sits at the center of it. This is the rare seat where genuine mortgage expertise meets frontier AI product work, and where the person in it gets to decide how one of the largest financial workflows in the country actually gets automated. You'll own a portfolio that moves the business, work alongside a team that ships at startup speed, and see your decisions reach millions of loans. If you want your fingerprints on the future of lending, not a slide about it, this is where that work happens.

What You'll Do:

Partner with the VP of Mortgage Product to coordinate priorities across the portfolio and present a unified product strategy to customers and internal stakeholders.
Own strategy, roadmap, and delivery for a portfolio of mortgage products.
Drive AI-first automation, across and adjacent to the mortgage manufacturing process, with human-in-the-loop accuracy as the standard.
Work closely with engineering, AI/ML, and design teams to rapidly ship, measure, and iterate on new capabilities.
Translate agency guidelines (Fannie, Freddie, FHA, VA, USDA) and lender workflows into real requirements and intuitive product experiences. .
Partner with Sales, Account Management, Customer Enablement, Implementations, and Marketing to drive successful launches, adoption, and customer value
Establish strong product management practices, using customer insight, data, and clear success metrics to drive prioritization and decision-making. Own the metrics that matter, adoption, accuracy, ROI.

What You'll Bring:

8+ years in product, much of it building mortgage or mortgage-tech products (POS, LOS, origination, underwriting automation, income/doc verification, or agency integrations).
Deep mortgage fluency: the loan manufacturing process, agency guidelines, underwriting and operations workflows, and what lenders and underwriters actually struggle with.
A builder who ships, fast and to a high bar. You prototype with engineers rather than write specs from a distance, and you move with urgency without cutting the corners that matter.
Hands-on AI/ML experience, ideally in lending, document processing, or underwriting.
A track record of products lenders use at scale, with measurable impact.
Grit and ownership: you push through ambiguity, take outcomes as yours, and drive them without being told.
Intellectual curiosity: you dig into how things work, question assumptions, and keep learning.
Cross-functional leadership: you align engineering, ML, ops, and GTM, and you've mentored or managed PMs (or are ready to).

Nice to Have:

Certified Mortgage Banker (CMB) or equivalent.
Encompass / ICE, Fannie Mae DU, Freddie Mac LPA, or ULDD experience.
Time at a modern mortgage-tech or AI-lending company.
Experience shipping to mortgage lenders as customers.

Note:

The full-time salary range for this role is $180,000 - $220,000 + variable + equity + benefits. Base pay offered may vary depending on job-related knowledge, skills, experience, and market location.
