The final step to buying a home is called the closing ceremony. This is one of the more painful parts of the buying process. Historically this involves a large number of emails or phone calls between the buyer and title company, meeting a notary in person on your closing day, and reviewing and signing a large number of documents with the notary. Our job is to reduce the friction in the closing ceremony. This involves supporting online scheduling, guiding a borrower through the closing documents before the day of signing, and allowing the borrower to interact with a notary remotely. All of these features involve building new workflows, working with vendors to provide features such as remote notarization, and working with our lenders to integrate their existing systems into Blend Close. How you’ll contribute:
Collaborate with cross-functional teams to understand and translate business requirements into technical specifications & code
Work with product managers and UI/UX designers to implement new features and enhancements
Design & develop applications to scale while considering maintenance, resiliency, and robustness
Implement responsive user interfaces and ensure a seamless user experience across all devices with accessibility in mind
Identify and troubleshoot software defects and issues, ensuring timely resolution
Participate in code reviews to maintain code quality and ensure best practices
Encourage great habits to enhance team practices by participating in code reviews & offering peer mentorship and guidance
