This will be hard

Palo Alto

New York

Mortgages have failed America. They’re the only financial instrument still manufactured on an assembly line. Slow, error-prone, inefficient, and massively expensive.

Vertical SaaS can’t solve it. And Silicon Valley doesn’t get it. $20B in investment has only made origination more expensive.

When we set out to turn mortgages into an API call, the “experts” said we were insane. But determination and AI have made it possible.

Pylon is a team of outsiders-turned-mortgage-nerds. We’re opinionated, spiky founder-types who are the best at what we do. We ship quickly and say what we think. We’re a home for renegades looking to do their life’s work.

We show up every day to prove the doubters wrong. We thrive on it.

Join us.

CEO

Customer obsession

Hold yourself and others accountable to overdelivering for our customers. They are our top priority.

Outcomes over optics

Bring a relentless focus on outputs to ensure you’re doing the work that matters most. We’re allergic to incrementalism and window dressing.

Contrarian and correct

Be highly opinionated and be right more than you’re wrong. We default to first principles and have a bias toward questioning industry consensus.

Craftsmanship in everything

Obsess over the details. The real estate economy depends on the infrastructure we’re building, so every pixel and every line of code matters.

Engineering at Pylon

Mortgages might be the hardest problem in all of tech. Real money, real stakes, real regulatory complexity. Many have tried and failed.

At Pylon, we’re vertically integrating the whole mortgage stack. Our engineers own entire systems, not tickets. We leverage AI+ML and operations research to solve the messy, real-world challenges everyone else calls impossible.

If you want to build infrastructure that actually moves the American economy, join us.
