Compliance & QC Specialist

The Mortgage Talent Network • Portland, OR

About The Position

We represent an established multi-state residential mortgage banker that's adding a Compliance & QC Specialist to a small, focused compliance team. This is the seat that quietly keeps the regulatory machine running — and gets the recognition for it. You'll anchor three high-impact functions for the company (daily quality control, NMLS licensing operations, and advertising compliance review), reporting to a Chief Compliance Officer who knows what good looks like and gives you the room to deliver it. If you've been the person at your shop who tracks every state filing, hunts down every advertising violation before it becomes a finding, and keeps the QC pipeline clean — this is the role that puts that work front and center.

Why this role is worth a look:
Direct CCO partnership — you're not three layers down, your work goes straight up
Real ownership across three functions — QC, licensing, and advertising review, not a boxed-in scope
Cross-trained partner — neither of you ever feels stuck taking time off
Visibility into branch operations and origination — not strictly back-office
Established lender with strong compliance discipline already in place — you're inheriting a working program, not rebuilding from scratch

Requirements

• Two or more years in an office environment — banking, mortgage, regulation, or marketing all count
• Working knowledge of RESPA, TILA, ECOA, the SAFE Act, and UDAAP — you don't need to be a lawyer, but you need to know what these are and how they touch what you do day to day
• Strong analytical skills and excellent written and verbal communication
• Comfort with computers, social media, and the variety of channels lenders advertise through
• Detail-oriented operator who solves problems independently and prioritizes across multiple workstreams
• 2+ years in an office environment, preferably banking, mortgage, regulation, or marketing (Required)
• Working knowledge of RESPA, TILA, ECOA, SAFE Act, and UDAAP (Required)
• Strong analytical, written, and verbal communication skills (Required)
• Strong attention to detail and independent problem-solving (Required)
• Proficient with computers and familiar with social media and advertising channels (Required)
• Authorization to work in the United States is required.

Nice To Haves

• Hands-on experience inside a mortgage QC platform
• Direct NMLS administration experience — individual originator and branch licensing
• Hands-on mortgage QC platform experience (Preferred)
• NMLS individual and branch licensing administration experience (Preferred)

Responsibilities

• Selecting daily pre-fund files for QC review based on risk factors and targets, sending them to the QC vendor, and chasing deficiencies with responsible parties until everything mitigates cleanly inside the QC platform.
• Handling the monthly state reporting that keeps company licensing in good standing, and being deep in NMLS for the team — running individual originator and branch license applications across jurisdictions, resolving deficiencies, and keeping pre-licensing and continuing education on track.
• Reviewing marketing material against federal and state advertising rules and logging every approval.
• Proactively auditing Loan Officers' online presence — websites, social, paid ads — for compliance issues, then partnering with the Chief Compliance Officer and Branch Managers to clean up anything that surfaces.
• Building and maintaining the in-house resource that loan officers lean on for state-specific advertising requirements.
• Pulling marketing archives and assembling files quickly when examiners or auditors call.
• Picking up special projects from the CCO as they come up.
• Cross-training with a peer so the team has full coverage year-round.
