Mortgage servicing and loan origination platform for residential and commercial lending
Planet Home Lending operates a mortgage banking platform handling $140 billion in servicing portfolio while managing loan origination across FHA, VA, USDA, jumbo, and Non-QM programs. The tech stack is enterprise-Microsoft-centric (Office, Azure, 365, Intune) with Encompass as the core mortgage system and ServiceNow for workflow automation. Current hiring is broadly distributed across engineering, ops, finance, and marketing with mid-to-senior level focus, while active projects cluster around compliance training, IT asset management, bankruptcy case handling, and marketing automation—suggesting internal operational scaling rather than product innovation.
