Mortgage lender modernizing lending operations with technology and transparency
Novus Home Mortgage operates a residential lending platform backed by Ixonia Bank, built around streamlining the mortgage process through tech and transparency. The tech stack reveals heavy reliance on legacy mortgage infrastructure (Encompass LOS) paired with Microsoft/HR systems (Workday, ADP, Paylocity), with no visible adopts or migrations — suggesting integration and operational efficiency remain the focus rather than modernization. Active hiring concentrates in ops and finance roles, pointing toward scaling loan origination and back-office execution.
