Blend is a diverse team of problem solvers who believe that the world’s financial resources should be more accessible. Our cloud banking platform is used by Wells Fargo, U.S. Bank, and over 330 other financial services firms to acquire more customers, increase productivity, and deliver end-to-end digital experiences. Our software enables our customers to process an average of more than $5 billion in loans per day, making it possible for consumers to reach their financial goals faster and lead better lives. Come do work that matters.
Blend's home lending platform connects to the loan origination systems (LOS) at the center of our customers' operations. When those integrations are deep and reliable, loan teams work in one system, data moves without rekeying, and our clients' sales and fulfillment operations run faster. When they aren't, lenders swivel between systems and every deployment slows down.
This role owns Blend's LOS integrations as a product: the strategy, the roadmap, and the partner relationships behind how Blend connects to our clients' LOS.
MISSIONMake our LOS integrations a reason lenders choose Blend. Own the roadmap, delivery, and quality of our two-way LOS integrations, deliver on committed timelines and strategic-account requirements, and build integration architecture we reuse across clients rather than rebuild for each one.
RESPONSIBILITIES- Own the LOS integration strategy and roadmap, including completion of Encompass two-way sync, Empower two-way sync per the committed roadmap, and the forward path for NetOxygen, Vesta, Loancrate, and others
- Represent Blend in partner and client integration meetings, onsites, and working sessions in US time zones (travel required)
- Work with product partnerships on LOS vendor coordination, bringing technical requirements and roadmap commitments into partner conversations
- Disposition integration requests from strategic accounts, weighing client commitments against roadmap
- Define technical requirements for new integration capabilities, including field mappings, sync behavior, error handling, and data quality
- Partner with the technical product owner on our globally distributed engineering team, who owns backlog execution and sprint operations for the integration scrum team
- Keep a single source of truth for integration scope, status, and open items per client program, and support delivery teams through user acceptance testing and go-live on integration-dependent programs
- Home lending product leadership (reporting relationship)
- Technical product owner on the globally distributed engineering team, who runs the day-to-day backlog while this role sets the broader integration strategy and represents Blend with partners and clients
- Engineering leadership and the integration scrum team
- Product Partnerships Manager, on LOS vendor relationships and commercial coordination
- Customer success managers and delivery leads on strategic-account integration requests
- Deep mortgage technology experience is required, not preferred. You have worked directly in the LOS ecosystem — Encompass, Empower, NetOxygen, Vesta, or MeridianLink — and you know MISMO standards firsthand
- You are the expert we're hiring, and we expect you to teach. Our team cannot train someone on the mortgage software ecosystem; this person raises the organization's fluency in LOS integrations from day one
- 5+ years of product management experience, with meaningful time on technical or integration-heavy products
- Reads API specs, data schemas, and field-level mapping documents comfortably, and holds their own in technical design discussions
- Can set integration strategy while staying in the weeds with engineering, with a track record of shipping against committed external timelines
- Writes requirements engineering can build from without rework
- US-based, comfortable collaborating across global time zones, and willing to travel to client and partner sites
Compensation:
- Base Salary Range: $118,000 – $139,000 (This applies to full time hires. Final offer determined by multiple factors, including but not limited to function, level, geographic location, job related knowledge, skills, and experience.)
- Bonus (if applicable): Eligibility is contingent upon both company performance against established goals and achievement of individual performance objectives.
- Equity : Meaningful Restricted Stock Units in public company stock (NYSE: BLND) so you share in Blend’s long-term growth and success.
We offer a comprehensive and competitive benefits package designed to support your health and work-life balance.
Health & Wellbeing- We offer medical, dental, and vision benefits, with a generous employer contribution that helps keep your medical insurance costs low.
- Company-paid life, short-term, and long-term disability coverage
- Generous PTO, holidays, and maternity/parental leave
- Employee Assistance Program (EAP): mental health, legal, childcare & eldercare, financial planning, college search, and more
- Voluntary benefits: accident, critical illness, hospital indemnity, identity theft, and legal insurance
- Monthly wellness stipend for fitness, mental health, and well-being
- Additional perks: Milk Stork, pet insurance, and paid volunteer time off
- 401(k) retirement plan with company match
- Pre-tax savings: healthcare & dependent care FSAs, Limited Purpose FSA, and HSA
Skills Required
- Deep mortgage technology experience with direct work in LOS ecosystems (Encompass, Empower, NetOxygen, Vesta, MeridianLink) and firsthand knowledge of MISMO standards.
- 5+ years of product management experience, including significant time on technical or integration-heavy products.
- Ability to read API specifications, data schemas, and field-level mapping documents and participate in technical design discussions.
- Proven track record setting integration strategy while working closely with engineering and shipping against committed external timelines.
- Ability to write clear, buildable technical requirements that engineering can implement without rework.
- US-based and willing to collaborate across global time zones and travel to client and partner sites in US time zones.
- Subject-matter-expert mindset able to teach and raise organizational fluency in LOS integrations.
