🏢 About GoodLeap

GoodLeap is a fast-growing fintech company that has facilitated $27 billion in financing for sustainable home upgrades since 2018. They leverage AI-driven tools to streamline the loan process, making them a leader in the green home improvement space. Working here means contributing to environmental sustainability while being part of a dynamic, remote-first team.

About This Role

As a Contract Review Specialist, you will be the gatekeeper ensuring that home improvement contracts meet compliance standards before loans can proceed. Your attention to detail directly impacts the speed and accuracy of funding, helping homeowners access solar, roofing, and other upgrades quickly. This role is critical in maintaining GoodLeap's reputation for reliable and efficient service.

💡 A Day in the Life

You start your day by logging into the Origin portal to review a queue of home improvement contracts submitted by approved partners. Each contract is checked against GoodLeap's guidelines for completeness, accuracy, and compliance. You resolve discrepancies by communicating with partners or internal teams, aiming to clear cases for NTP and funding. Throughout the day, you meet productivity quotas and may work overtime during busy periods to ensure loans close on time.
