Remote Mortgage Loan Officer; California

Position: Remote Mortgage Loan Officer (California) About The Team At Zillow Home Loans, we’re at the forefront of revolutionizing the home financing experience. As part of Zillow Group’s Fin Tech division, you’ll help reshape how consumers buy, sell, and finance homes while working in a collaborative, high‑energy environment. We’re a team of innovators, problem solvers, and creative individuals pushing the boundaries of the mortgage industry. Mortgage Loan Officers at Zillow Home Loans drive their success through one of two specialized lending teams. One team leverages a high volume, lead‑driven, phone‑based environment for Loan Officers who excel at high‑frequency conversion and scaling customer relationships quickly. The other team focuses on a consultative, market‑based model for those who thrive on building long‑term strategic partnerships with Zillow Preferred Agents. Both teams are core to our purchase‑focused mission and are equally backed by Zillow’s industry‑leading technology, brand, centralized operations, and leadership support. Whether you find your edge in data‑driven, lead‑responsive execution or in nurturing a local professional network, both paths offer a high‑impact career within the Zillow ecosystem. About The Role This is an opportunity to grow your career as a purchase‑focused Mortgage Loan Officer originating home loans for customers introduced through Zillow’s ecosystem. You’ll guide borrowers from first contact through funding while delivering a best‑in‑class customer experience. Based on your background and strengths, you may operate in either a high‑volume, digitally driven environment or a relationship‑based, market‑focused model. Success in this role comes from responsiveness, execution, and performance in a structured, metrics‑driven organization—supported by Zillow’s brand, platform, and operational scale. This role is “remote” with restrictions. Your designated remote location is defined as your principal place of residence, which must be physically located within the state listed above California.
