The ideal candidate combines strong mortgage industry knowledge with hands-on systems administration expertise and a passion for improving processes, integrations, and user experience.
What You’ll Do
Own Encompass administration end-to-end, including business rules, user and security setup, milestone and channel configuration, and audit preparation.
Administer and support core vendor platforms — including Optimal Blue, Lender Logix, Argyle, and Insellerate (Addy AI) — and serve as the Encompass-side point of contact for MSP interface points, ensuring smooth operation and integration with Encompass.
Serve as implementation project manager for new systems and programs, including the APS program (Encompass build from the ground up) and Encompass TPO setup to support the correspondent lending channel.
Provide integration support across LOS, PPE, POS, and servicing platforms, coordinating with IT, vendors, and internal stakeholders on connection points and data flow.
Serve as the primary point of contact for Encompass360 daily use, troubleshooting, and updates.
Act as a liaison between staff, clients, IT, and third-party integration partners.
Communicate system changes and updates to staff and clients.
Develop, maintain, and optimize reporting within Encompass.
Recommend and implement process or system improvements to support efficiency and compliance.
What We’re Looking For
2+ years of experience with Encompass360 administration and/or IT support.
Experience administering or supporting additional mortgage technology platforms, such as Optimal Blue, POS systems, or similar LOS-adjacent vendor tools, strongly preferred.
Strong understanding of the mortgage lifecycle (origination, processing, underwriting, closing, post-closing, and secondary).
Experience supporting system implementations, vendor integrations, or technology project management is a plus.
Excellent problem-solving, organizational, and communication skills.
Ability to manage multiple concurrent projects and adapt quickly in a fast-paced, compliance-driven environment.
Encompass360 certification preferred.
