About Valon

Valon is the AI-native operating system for mortgage servicing. Mortgage servicing underpins US home ownership yet runs on software that pre-dates the internet; Valon built a system of record that unifies workflows, data and money movement in one platform that scales with complexity. $100B+ in mortgages run on the platform, with 3x lower servicing cost and higher customer satisfaction.

Founded in 2019, Valon has about 300 people, has raised $230M+ from Andreessen Horowitz and WestCap, and holds $500M in signed contracts.

The Role

Valon is hiring Deployment Strategists (3-6 years) to own live enterprise deployments of ValonOS for the largest mortgage servicers in the country. This is for a high-horsepower operator from consulting, banking, investing or a high-growth startup who wants to move from making recommendations to owning outcomes end to end, deploying eight- and nine-figure enterprise contracts.

What You Will Do

• Own enterprise deployments from understanding a client's operation through platform configuration, adoption and measurable business results.
• Spend time on-site with customers observing workflows, digging into data and solving operational problems.
• Partner with engineering and product to turn messy legacy workflows into scalable software.
• Make decisions with incomplete information across deployments that all look different.
• Build the playbooks, tooling and processes that make future rollouts faster.

What You Bring

• 3-6 years in strategy consulting (MBB), investment banking, private equity, hedge funds or a high-growth startup
• Undergraduate degree from a top-20 university (or international equivalent)
• Demonstrated, daily AI fluency with AI tools and coding agents
• Built playbooks, tooling or processes from scratch
• High agency and ownership; comfortable in ambiguity
• Career stability (promotions within a company are a strong plus)
• Hybrid in NYC or SF 3-4 days a week and 10-20% domestic travel
