Job Description

What's the role?
Bilt Mortgages is building something that has never existed before: a mortgage brokerage experience designed around the same hospitality principles that define Bilt's broader platform. As our Principal Mortgage Broker and Qualifying Individual, you'll be the licensed backbone that allows Bilt Mortgages to operate across all 50 states — and a key driver of how we build, grow, and differentiate the business. This role sits at the intersection of compliance, product, and business development. You'll work closely with our product and engineering teams to shape a next-generation brokerage portal, while simultaneously building the wholesale relationships that bring new servicers and brokers into the Bilt ecosystem.

In this role you will...
  • Serve as the Qualifying Individual for Bilt Mortgages LLC, maintaining licensure and ensuring the company meets all state regulatory requirements across all 50 states
  • Partner with product and engineering teams to inform the build of a new point-of-sale and loan origination platform, contributing expertise across the full mortgage lifecycle — from lead sourcing and realtor relationships through application, underwriting, and closing
  • Bring a forward-thinking perspective on AI and emerging technologies to the product development process, helping shape features that create a hospitality-grade experience for borrowers and partners alike
  • Lead wholesale business development efforts, identifying and signing new servicer and broker partners to expand Bilt Mortgages' reach and distribution
  • Articulate and evangelize Bilt's unique retention and servicing value proposition to prospective wholesale partners
  • Represent Bilt Mortgages externally at industry events, partner meetings, and in the broader wholesale community
  • Stay current on regulatory changes, market dynamics, and competitive developments that affect Bilt's mortgage business

In terms of qualifications we're seeking:
  • Active mortgage broker license with a minimum of 3 years of residential mortgage origination experience within the past 3 years, meeting Qualifying Individual requirements across all 50 states
  • Deep, hands-on familiarity with the end-to-end mortgage process — lead generation, realtor relationships, application intake, underwriting coordination, and closing
  • Proven experience working with POS and LOS platforms and a strong understanding of how technology supports each stage of the mortgage lifecycle
  • Track record of successful business development in the wholesale mortgage space
  • Demonstrated intellectual curiosity about emerging technology, including AI, and how it can improve mortgage and financial services products
  • Strong communication and interpersonal skills — you're someone who can build trust quickly and close

Nice to have:
  • Experience contributing to the build or evaluation of mortgage technology platforms
  • Existing relationships within the wholesale servicer and broker community
  • Familiarity with loyalty, retention, or membership-based business models
  • Experience at a high-growth startup or fintech environment

Benefits:
  • Compensation - We offer a competitive salary with a meaningful stake in the company via equity and our performance bonus program
  • Health insurance for you (& your loved ones) from day one - Enjoy a One Medical Membership, wellness stipends, family programs and more, on us. We've got you and your family covered from day one.
  • 401k plan with a match - Retirement may feel more like a pipe dream than a reality but we're here to help you get there.
  • Commuter FSAs - We believe the best ideas come from being together in one place. We just don't think getting there should be so expensive.
  • UNLIMITED PTO - Because we believe that working hard shouldn't mean always working. Take time for you as often as you need it.
  • Exclusive Employee-only Bilt Points - We give our employees unique opportunities to earn points throughout their time at Bilt.
  • Team Events - We believe in human connection so we hold events to help our employees break from the monotony of the typical work week.

At Bilt, we believe in transparency and we do our best to make sure the company and our candidates are on the same page as it relates to compensation. In addition to posting salary ranges for our open roles, candidates should expect to be asked about compensation expectations and requirements early on in their interview process. Our goal is to highlight when expectations and Bilt's salary range may be out of sync, and work with the candidate to determine whether it makes sense to continue conversations.

We are considering candidates with differing levels of expertise for this position. Leveling will be based upon your experience and performance in the interview process.

Where a new hire falls within a range will be based on their individual skills and experience, and how these competencies compare across other employees in the same role. Bilt's bands are designed to allow for individual compensation growth within the role. As such, new hires typically start at the lower end of the range. Bilt rewards performance and outcomes - should you join the company, you will have the opportunity to grow your salary over time.

The salary range for an Principal Mortgage Broker is $150,000-200,000 and will be eligible for equity and an annual performance-based bonus.
