ABOUT OUR COMPANY:
The crushing weight of debt is something that we believe holds people back from reaching their dreams and making a splash in the world. So in 2013, after seeing our friends and family struggle with student loans, we created Splash Financial.
Over the years, our mission has expanded to include helping people with other forms of debt - such as refinancing credit cards, which are at all time highs in the US. And we’ve been able to refinance $6+ Billion in loans through our network of Splash, powered credit union and bank partners who leverage our marketplace and automated loan processing technology. And we’ve raised over $135 million from investors like partners of DST Global, Citi Ventures, TruStage Ventures, Northwestern Mutual Future Ventures, Detroit Venture Partners and more.
But at our core, we’re still that little company from Cleveland with a big dream: to make people more powerful than their debt and we’re just getting started.
ABOUT OUR WORKPLACE:
Splash is remote-first, and proud of it — though our collections team works in-person at our Arizona location.
We spend our days simplifying financial products and getting them into the hands of people who need them most. Right now, we’re focused on building financial technologies that fundamentally transform how the industry lends.
Although Splash has been around since 2013, we still operate like a startup — fast-paced, nimble, and full of heart. We’re good people who care deeply about doing meaningful work, and we approach challenges with creativity, passion, and urgency.
And to hire the best, we provide the best: great health insurance, competitive salaries, and unique benefits like quarterly meet-ups and access to engagement tools that keep us connected — even from afar.
At Splash, everything we do is guided by our values:
- Own It – We take full accountability and follow through on commitments.
- Raise the Bar – We move fast, innovate faster, and push through barriers.
- Say the Hard Thing – We speak up with honesty, respect, and a desire to solve problems and make things better.
- Elevate Each Other – We win as a team by lifting each other up.
These values show up in how we work and how we connect — whether we’re collaborating on big projects or bonding over everyday moments. Yes, we even have Slack channels for #kids-and-pets and #food, because we believe being human makes us better teammates.

Tips for Your Remote Mortgage Specialist Job Search
Tailor your resume for loan volume
Mortgage specialist resumes live or die on production numbers. Quantify your closed loan volume, average loan size, and pull-through rate by quarter. Hiring managers in this field scan for those figures before reading anything else on your resume.
Get your NMLS license current before applying
Most residential mortgage specialist roles require an active NMLS license with your state endorsement. Confirm your license is current and your continuing education hours are logged before submitting applications, so nothing stalls an offer at the background-check stage.
Apply early to roles that fit
Migrate Mate lists mortgage specialist openings from across the United States in one place, so you can find roles that match and apply directly to each listing.
Target openings that match your loan type
Retail bank postings, wholesale lender roles, and credit union positions reward different experience. Filter your search by loan type, whether conventional, FHA, VA, or jumbo, so your application matches what that employer actually underwrites and originates.
Prepare a pipeline scenario for interviews
Interviewers at mortgage companies routinely ask you to walk through how you build and work a referral pipeline. Prepare a concrete example covering your referral sources, follow-up cadence, and how you convert a lead into a closed loan.
Negotiate commission structure, not just base pay
Most mortgage specialist compensation packages blend a base with a per-loan or basis-point commission. Before accepting an offer, ask how splits are calculated on purchased versus refinance loans and whether there is a minimum monthly production threshold to retain your draw.
Remote Mortgage Specialist Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get a remote mortgage specialist job?
Target companies that already run distributed teams, since they hire remotely by default and know how to onboard someone they never meet in person.

Apply to the openings above that match your experience.

Can you get a remote mortgage specialist job with no experience?
Yes, but it is harder than an on-site role, because remote work expects you to operate independently from the start. Entry-level remote mortgage specialist openings do exist, especially at remote-first companies, and a portfolio of real work helps more than a long resume. Applying broadly to the roles that fit improves your odds.
