Senior Loan Officer: GoodLeap in Irvine

Good Leap is hiring a Senior Loan Officer, Mortgage for its Irvine, California mortgage sales team. The full-time, on-site mortgage lending role in Irvine pays $16.90 an hour plus commission. The role originates home loans through Good Leap's in-house mortgage banking operation. The position serves a sales professional with two to five years of mortgage experience.

Inside sales experience is preferred, and a bachelor's degree in business or finance is preferred but not required when equivalent work experience applies. The role includes the ability to obtain a Mortgage Loan Originator license after hire under the SAFE Act.

Loan origination starts with a complete borrower profile. A loan officer reviews income, assets, liabilities, credit history, property details, and the purpose of the financing before recommending a loan structure. The conversation also covers loan term, down payment, interest rate, closing costs, and the documents needed to verify each part of the application.

Good Leap's mortgage sales team receives inbound pre-screened leads from its internal lead-generation group. The field's mortgage job openings often combine customer conversations with pipeline control and sales measurement. Established sales quotas and time limits require clear prioritization when several borrowers need an update at once.

• Originate home loans through the mortgage banking operation
• Meet customer expectations and assigned sales quotas
• Manage competing priorities within established time frames
• Handle additional duties assigned by a supervisor or manager

Loan officers and mortgage agents build reliable files by matching every stated financial fact to a supporting document. Pay records, bank statements, tax information, identification, credit data, and property records each answer a different underwriting question. A missing or inconsistent item can delay a decision, so the loan officer records open items and tracks each response.

Mortgage lending careers also require accurate disclosures, consistent treatment of applicants, privacy controls, and timely handoffs to processing and underwriting. A licensed originator follows the employer's procedures for documenting recommendations and preserving communication records. State-specific licensing rules can add education, testing, background-check, and renewal duties when the job covers more than one jurisdiction.

Good Leap's financing operations have helped more than one million homeowners and facilitated more than $30 billion in financing since 2018. Good Leap's financing operations support home-efficiency products such as solar panels, batteries, energy-efficient heating and cooling systems, roofing, and windows.

Good Leap operates as a technology company with financing and software products for sustainable home improvements. Its direct mortgage banking operation underwrites and funds loans across conventional, government, jumbo, and non-QM programs. The mortgage team therefore works within both a lending business and a technology organization.

An on-site mortgage sales team shares information across loan officers, processors, underwriters, closers, compliance staff, and managers. The Senior Loan Officer keeps borrower questions, loan conditions, and promised follow-ups visible as a file moves between those functions. The work requires concise notes because each handoff can affect the next review.

The Irvine, California workplace puts customer communication beside sales operations. A loan officer balances phone conversations, digital documentation, pipeline updates, and internal escalations during the same business day. A clear record of the borrower's goals and the loan structure prevents later conversations from starting with incomplete information. The team keeps a shared handoff record for conditions, borrower questions, and escalation status.

Good Leap provides continual education and training for its teams. A new loan officer typically develops product knowledge alongside supervised file reviews, quality checks, and coached customer conversations. The first months of mortgage sales work require careful use of the CRM, consistent follow-up habits, and accurate escalation of questions that require underwriting or compliance guidance.
