Director, Title Risk Assessment and Automation Solutions - freddiemac

At Freddie Mac, our mission of Making Home Possible is what motivates us, and it’s at the core of everything we do. Since our charter in 1970, we have made home possible for more than 90 million families across the country. Join an organization where your work contributes to a greater purpose.

Freddie Mac is seeking a highly experienced Director, Title Risk Assessment and Automation Solutions to lead the development, evaluation, and enhancement of automated solutions that assess title risk for single-family mortgage loans. This leader will help define how Freddie Mac identifies loans with low title risk that can be purchased with confidence, while maintaining appropriate standards for clear and marketable title, risk management, consumer protection, and regulatory compliance.

This role requires deep subject matter expertise in the title insurance and mortgage industries, including title data sources, title search and examination processes, title underwriting standards, title defects, curative workflows, and automated title decisioning. The successful candidate will understand both the business and technical components of title risk assessment, including how to evaluate available title-related data, obtain and govern that data, and develop or vet rules-based, analytics-based, and model-supported title risk engines.

The Director will work closely with teams across Freddie Mac, including Credit Risk Management, Collateral Policy, Legal, Fair Lending, Modeling, Technology, Seller Engagement, Operations, Oversight, and FHFA-facing stakeholders. This leader will also engage with lenders, title vendors, settlement service providers, data vendors, and technology providers to understand market capabilities and drive responsible innovation.

The Single-Family Credit Risk Management team proactively identifies, assesses, and mitigates credit risk to support Freddie Mac’s mission while maintaining a prudent risk profile. We leverage data, analytics, policy, technology, and risk management expertise to support liquidity, stability, affordability, and sound risk management in the single-family mortgage market.

Within this broader mission, title risk assessment plays a critical role in determining whether loans are supported by clear and marketable title and whether title-related risks can be identified, measured, mitigated, and monitored in a scalable and responsible manner.

As a key leader within Single-Family Credit Risk Management, you will be responsible for helping Freddie Mac shape and execute its title risk assessment strategy.

Responsibilities include:

• Support the Vice President of Collateral Risk Management in developing and executing Freddie Mac’s title risk assessment strategy in alignment with Single-Family, Credit Risk and Enterprise objectives.
