Principal Product Manager

The U.S. mortgage market is a $14 trillion pillar of the economy — and much of it still runs on fax machines, overnight shipping, and manual workflows. Snapdocs is changing that. Our platform currently powers 20% of all real estate closings in the country, and we’re just getting started. We design workflow software and AI‑driven automation that connects lenders, settlement teams, notaries, and investors — eliminating friction, reducing risk, and delivering a faster, simpler closing for every borrower. Our customers range from the largest mortgage lenders to independent title companies. They trust us because we solve real operational pain with empathy, rigor, and reliability. We’re backed by Sequoia, Y Combinator, and F‑Prime, and we’re building for the long term. The Opportunity A mortgage closing is one of the biggest financial decisions most people make. Yet, the infrastructure behind it is held together with email threads and manual follow‑up. Lenders, settlement companies, notaries, and secondary market participants need to coordinate across different systems and processes to complete a mortgage closing. This multi‑party workflow results in high costs, frequent errors, and slow closing times. Snapdocs is on a mission to make those handoffs disappear. Snapdocs powers 1 in 4 mortgage closings. We are series D‑backed, connected to thousands of lenders and title companies, and trusted with some of the most compliance‑sensitive transactions in financial services. We’ve built the operating standard for mortgage closing automation. Now we’re extending the platform. The Role This role has a dual mandate.
