Junior Underwriter

Are you the type of person who wants to understand why a loan gets approved, not just collect documents? American Mortgage Services is a growing mortgage brokerage seeking a detail-oriented Underwriting Assistant / Mortgage Loan Analyst to support our Loan Officers and Operations Team. This position is ideal for someone who enjoys analyzing income, assets, credit, and loan scenarios while helping move loans efficiently from application to closing. Unlike a traditional Mortgage Loan Officer Assistant role focused primarily on administrative tasks, this position plays a critical role in evaluating loan files, identifying potential issues early, and helping structure loans for success before they ever reach underwriting. The ideal candidate understands how mortgage loans work, enjoys solving problems, and takes pride in catching details that others miss. What We Are Looking For We're not looking for a document chaser. We're looking for someone who wants to understand the complete mortgage process and can think critically through loan scenarios, anticipate underwriting concerns, and help our team deliver a smoother borrower experience. If you're currently an MLOA or processor and feel capable of contributing at a higher level, we'd love to speak with you. Benefits Competitive compensation Paid holidays and time off Health benefits available Career growth opportunities Supportive team environment Stable company with strong referral and repeat business Why Join Us? At American Mortgage Services, we believe great operations professionals are the backbone of every successful loan. You'll work alongside experienced mortgage professionals who value teamwork, accountability, and continuous growth while helping families achieve homeownership every day. #J-18808-Ljbffr
