Job Description

Role Overview  
As a Part‑Time Residential Mortgage Loan Underwriter Consultant at JazzX AI, you will leverage your deep expertise in underwriting to build AI-technology to support mortgage underwriting activities.

Contract Duration: 3–6 months (potential to extend up to 12 months) 
Time Commitment: up to 20 hours/week (flexible) 
Key Responsibilities

    • Document underwriting rationale, risk profiles, and exception handling. 
  • Process Mapping & Rule Development
    • Deconstruct end-to-end underwriting workflows—from borrower qualification and income/asset verification to AUS findings and final approval.
    • Identify critical decision points and edge cases crucial for AI modeling. 
  • Model Validation & Feedback
    • Blind-test AI-generated underwriting recommendations against manual assessments.
    • Provide granular feedback to engineering teams to fine-tune decision rules and confidence thresholds. 
  • Knowledge Transfer & Training
    • Create clear, actionable guides on complex topics (e.g., compensating factors, manual AUS overrides, GSE compliance).
    • Host virtual workshops or Q&A sessions to transfer domain knowledge to cross-functional teams. 
Required Qualifications  
  • Experience: 5–10 years in residential mortgage underwriting at a senior or specialist level.
  • GSE Mastery: Deep, hands-on knowledge of Fannie Mae DU and/or Freddie Mac LP guidelines.
  • Analytical Acumen: Proven ability to assess borrower credit, income, assets, and collateral with accuracy and consistency.
  • 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. 
Preferred Qualifications  
  • Experience at large retail or independent mortgage lenders (e.g., Wells Fargo, Rocket Mortgage, Chase).
  • Background in manual underwriting, AUS overrides, or secondary market delivery.
  • Familiarity with post-closing QC, servicing reviews, and secondary market delivery processes.
