About the role

Key responsibilities & impact
  • Test our UIs and workflows end-to-end — running real loan scenarios through the product the way a processor, underwriter, or closer would, across loan types and document conditions.
  • Find the bugs before customers do — visual glitches, broken validations, workflow dead-ends, incorrect calculations, data that doesn't persist, integrations that quietly drop fields, and the long tail of edge cases that only break under real mortgage conditions.
  • Write clear, reproducible bug reports — with the exact steps, the loan scenario in play, expected vs. actual behavior, and screenshots or recordings — so engineers can fix the issue without a second round of questions.
  • Build and own the regression test suite — a curated set of manual test cases and lightweight automated scripts (Playwright / Cypress or similar) that cover our core flows and grow with the product.
  • Own release readiness — run pre-release verification on every meaningful change, sign off on what's ready to ship, and flag what isn't.
  • Partner directly with Engineering and Product — sitting in on design reviews, asking the "but what happens when…" questions early, and helping shape features so they're testable and correct by construction.
  • Define the playbook — QA SOPs, bug severity rubrics, release checklists, and quality metrics that future team members will follow.
  • Hire, train, and lead the QA team — within 12-18 months, you can be running the function and owning how Loancrate thinks about software quality.

Requirements

What you’ll need
  • Mortgage operations experience — processing, underwriting, closing, post-closing, QC, or similar. You know what a 1003 looks like and can spot when something on screen doesn't reconcile with what the loan file says.
  • Hands-on experience with a loan origination system (Encompass, Empower, Byte, etc.) — you've lived inside one of these systems and know where they break.
  • QA or software testing experience — manual test design, exploratory testing, regression suites, release verification. Bonus if you've worked in a regulated or financial software environment.
  • Comfort with light test automation — you don't need to be a software engineer, but you should be willing to write and maintain simple Playwright, Cypress, or Selenium scripts (or pick them up quickly).
  • Genuine attention to detail — the work rewards people who like catching things that are subtly wrong and don't let them slide.
  • Clear written communication — the bug reports, test plans, and checklists you write get used by other people, so they need to be precise and easy to follow.
  • Comfort with structured data and developer tools — reading JSON, inspecting API responses, using browser dev tools, navigating logs. You don't need to code, but you shouldn't be afraid of these tools.
  • Process-oriented thinking — you see patterns in bugs and naturally want to systematize how they get caught next time.
  • Curiosity about AI and how it's changing mortgage workflows — you don't need an ML background, but you should be excited to work closely with people who do, and to think about how to test AI-driven features.
  • Prior team lead, training, or SOP-writing experience — onboarding new hires, running calibration sessions, or building QA programs from scratch.
