Description For Software Engineer, Home Lending

Upstart is the leading AI lending marketplace partnering with banks and credit unions to expand access to affordable credit. By leveraging Upstart's AI marketplace, Upstart-powered banks and credit unions can have higher approval rates and lower loss rates across races, ages, and genders, while simultaneously delivering the exceptional digital-first lending experience their customers demand.

As a software engineer on the Home Lending team, you'll help build and grow Upstart's 2 newest products: HELOC and Mortgage. Millions of homeowners are locked into long-term low-interest mortgages and looking for a way to access their equity. By securing a loan against their house, we can lend them fast, affordable credit for remodels, big purchases, or paying off debt.

You'll work closely with cross-functional partners, working across the whole stack. You're a self-starter that's able to leverage tools in your toolbelt to pave your own path forward to progress and deliver work with quality, testability, resiliency, and maintainability in mind. The tech stack includes AWS, Kafka, Spring Boot, Kubernetes, and Kotlin.

The role offers competitive compensation, comprehensive benefits, and the opportunity to work in a digital-first environment with quarterly in-person collaboration sessions. The team values high-empathy collaboration, out-of-the-box thinking, and a strong focus on quality and maintainability.

As a digital-first company, most Upstarters live and work anywhere in the United States, with physical offices in San Mateo, California; Columbus, Ohio; and Austin, Texas. The company culture emphasizes mission-driven work, enabling access to effortless credit based on true risk assessment through innovative AI technology.
