CRE Loan Underwriter

Fully remote role with a growing private lending platform. Base salary range: $110k–$125k all-in.

About the role

You will own credit decisions from first look through close on bridge, DSCR, and fix-and-flip transactions. This is not a traditional bank underwriting seat: you will underwrite real risk, move fast, and build the credit case yourself.

• Underwrite across the full deal lifecycle—initial screening through closing
• Write your own credit and debt memos rather than handing analysis off
• Work directly with borrowers, brokers, and internal stakeholders in a client-facing capacity

Requirements

• Experience underwriting outside a traditional bank—debt fund, bridge lender, or CMBS platform
• Comfort evaluating higher-LTV, faster-moving deals rather than the safest, slowest paper
• Ability to own a deal end-to-end, build the credit memo yourself, and move at the pace private credit requires
• CMBS exposure is a strong plus
• DSCR and fix-and-flip lending experience is a strong plus

What this role is not

This is not a fit for someone whose underwriting experience is entirely within a bank’s credit committee process or who is accustomed to long close timelines and conservative LTVs. We need someone already comfortable in the faster, riskier end of CRE lending.

Schedule

Start date: end of August. Fully remote, reporting into a small, hands-on lending team.
