About the role

  • About Pylon America's $13T mortgage market is one of the most important financial systems in the world.
  • But while every other financial instrument has been simplified to an API call, mortgages are still assembled by hand.
  • We're backed by Peter Thiel, Conversion Capital, QED, Citi, Fifth Wall, and the founders of Ramp, Blend, and Mercury.

Responsibilities

  • It underwrites the middle class and is the mechanism through which millions of families build wealth.
  • Publicly traded companies and the country's largest originators are already building on Pylon.
  • Join us in building America's mortgage rails.
  • Build integrations across the mortgage ecosystem. You'll connect Pylon to external partners - each with their own APIs, data formats, quirks, and reliability characteristics. No two are the same.
  • Own solutions from development to deploy to maintenance. You build it, you ship it, you keep it running. Integrations are only as good as their uptime, and that's your responsibility.
  • Be self-directed and versatile. The integrations surface is wide. You'll need to context-switch between partners, prioritize what matters, and drive projects forward without waiting for someone to hand you the next task.
  • External partner APIs (REST, SOAP, file-based - the full spectrum)
  • Wants to own features from design to development to deployment to maintenance

Company info

  • We're looking for Back End Engineers to join our Integrations team.
  • This team connects Pylon to the outside world - the partners, services, and data sources that make a seamless mortgage experience possible.
  • We have a critical, multi-month project ahead: building out a ton of integrations.
  • Credit bureaus, title companies, insurance providers, document services - mortgage touches everything, and we need to plug into all of it.
  • This is a rare opportunity to work across the entire mortgage domain and understand how all the pieces fit together, fast.
  • Work on everything. This role touches every part of the mortgage process. You'll gain a comprehensive understanding of how mortgage works - not in theory, but by building the connective tissue that makes it function.
  • Move fast on a high-impact project. This isn't a "someday" initiative. We're building these integrations now, and each one we ship unlocks new capabilities for our customers.
  • We started from zero and created the first vertically integrated mortgage platform that turns origination into a single API.
