Be Mindful + Think Critically

Trust + Be Trusted

Collaborate + Communicate

Take Initiative

Get Stuff Done


We back up these Core Values with behavior, which in turn reflects our beliefs and inspires others to do the same.


Our Mission is to reinvent mortgage lending by providing end-to-end automation through our robotic operating platform. Essentially, we help small-to-medium mortgage lenders automate the repetitive parts of the loan process and free up humans to do what they do best. We like to think that we’re on the verge of a change in mortgage lending, and our products and culture reflect that.


Our Vision is to realize the full potential of automation and enable a superior customer and mortgage lender experience. Our current BOTs are only the beginning – we can’t wait to see how we can continue to improve human lives through technology.


We attract people who like working with the latest technology and enjoy creating advanced automation. We like to have fun at work and take pride in creating great software. We are committed to the professional and personal growth of our employees. We celebrate and respect each other as humans first and employees second. While we are still in startup growth mode, we are poised to do great things and need your help. Work with us!

What's next:



We'll review your resume and if we like what we'll see, we'll invite you to complete our short coding challenge. Even though it should only take a few hours, we'll give you until the end of the next business day to submit your answer. Then we'll pass it along to our engineers to grade, and if you pass, you'll start the interview process!
