About the job

About Valon

At Valon, we are pioneering an AI-native operating system tailored for regulated finance, beginning with mortgage servicing. As a Series C company backed by a16z, we are on a mission to revolutionize industries that were previously deemed too complex for innovation.

Instead of relying on outdated legacy systems, we took a bold step by establishing our own mortgage servicing business, managing over $110 billion in loans. This approach has allowed us to gain profound insights into the complexities necessary to develop effective software solutions for regulated industries.

The results are impressive. We have transformed mortgage servicing from a low-margin business into one with margins exceeding 60%, all while significantly enhancing customer experiences. Major enterprise contracts are now being deployed across the industry.

Our flagship platform, ValonOS, streamlines every process, making it structured and programmable, perfectly suited for the AI era. By centralizing operations within one system enriched with data, our AI agents do more than automate tasks; they continuously enhance operational efficiency. Mortgage servicing is just the beginning of our vision to transform regulated industries and beyond.

Engineering at Valon

Our engineering team is dedicated to powering a software ecosystem that disrupts the outdated and highly regulated mortgage sector. We have laid the groundwork for a modern mortgage servicing platform capable of managing billions of dollars at scale, but this is only the start. At Valon, we encourage you to produce your best work in an environment filled with exceptional talent from renowned companies like Stripe, Jane Street, Meta, and Google, who share a deep commitment to their work and each other. Although our challenges are complex, you will enjoy a high degree of autonomy to learn, execute, and maximize business impact.

Our headquarters are located in New York City, and we are thrilled to announce the opening of a new office in San Francisco this year. We fully support remote work options!

In this pivotal role, you will oversee a team of 4+ engineers across one or more teams, collaborating closely with your team members as well as product, design, and operations teams to shape the future of Valon. You will empower your team through mentorship, strategic planning, strong technical leadership, and business insight to ensure maximum impact and value. Additionally, you will work alongside your peers to define the engineering culture and direction at Valon.
