Are you a compliance expert with a passion for transforming complex credit rules into simple, actionable guidance? We are seeking a highly detailed and experienced Senior Credit Policy Specialist to serve as our subject matter expert, ensuring our policies remain cutting-edge, compliant, and clearly communicated across the organization.

What you will do:

  • Serve as a subject matter expert on credit policy, providing guidance and clarification to internal and external stakeholders.

  • Continuously monitor and assess updates from agencies, investors, and regulators to ensure policies remain accurate and compliant.

  • Summarize and distribute announcement updates, and support cross-departmental compliance with credit policy standards.

  • Review and incorporate new or clarified guidance from agencies and investors into the company's proprietary knowledgebase, ensuring all credit policy information is accurate, current, and easily accessible to staff.

  • Conduct research and analysis to support inquiries from various departments, including but not limited to Products, Underwriting, and Legal, ensuring accurate and timely guidance.

  • Translate complex guidance into clear, actionable policies and resources (checklists, forms, job aids).

  • Conduct a 120-day review cycle to verify that all agency and investor guidelines remain accurate, up to date, and aligned with the latest credit policy and regulatory changes.

  • Work within FHA Connection and VA WebLGY to troubleshoot and resolve issues and support guideline implementation.

  • Monitor and manage the Credit Policy Scenario email inbox, reviewing and responding to policy-related inquiries and scenario requests from internal departments. Research, interpret, and provide clear, compliant guidance based on current agency, investor, and regulatory policies.

  • Lead investor and product rollouts by developing structured content — including matrices, guidelines, libraries, and PDFs — organized within the knowledge base for easy comparison and access (approx. 200 articles per investor/product).

  • Coordinate training reviews and act as SME during release calls, when appropriate.

What we are looking for:

  • 4+ years of underwriting and/or credit policy experience.

  • Solid knowledge and understanding of VA, FHA, USDA guidelines and/or Non-QM guidelines and eligibility requirements.

  • Knowledge and understanding of FNMA and FHLMC guidelines and eligibility requirements.
