Job description

You could work anywhere. We know you are talented and looking for something inspiring and impactful. A place where you will make a difference and have a great time doing it!

By choosing Sagent, you can be part of our mission to make loans and homeownership simpler and safer for all consumers.

Sagent powers servicers and consumers. You power Sagent!

Manager Software Development

About the Business:

Sagent powers America’s top banks and lenders to make loans and homeownership simpler and safer for consumers – and you power Sagent! We bring the modern experience customers now expect from loan originations to loan servicing. Servicing is where lifetime customer relationships are managed and grown – and Sagent is helping banks/lenders change “customer for life” from tagline to reality. Our platform lets customers manage their home-owning lives from anywhere while giving servicers lower costs, scale compliance, and higher servicing values through full market cycles.

Sagent is a joint venture that combines Fiserv Inc.’s decades of market-leading fintech expertise with Warburg Pincus’ skill in growing technology companies. We hire innovators and doers to disrupt the last and most complex frontier of lending and housing. We’re growing fast and need you to help shape our future.

About the Role:

Sagent is seeking an experienced Development Manager to lead the development team for our Dara product(s) while advancing our culture and practices. The team is building our next-generation servicing system and default products. The systems will be used by lenders and servicers in the consumer and mortgage lending markets in the United States. As an agile development manager, you will be working on with a global development team using modern technologies, tools and frameworks to develop advanced, enterprise business components that can run on Microsoft Azure platforms and Google Cloud.

Some key skills we look for in leadership team are as follows:

• A communicator: Whether written or oral, your communication skills are outstanding in any context. Your interactions with stakeholders and coworkers move business forward in a dynamic, exciting, entrepreneurial working environment. You are as good – maybe better – at listening and taking notes as you are at talking and writing.
• A problem-solver: You’re a results-oriented multi-tasker who runs toward a challenge. You’re able to work on multiple projects simultaneously and think independently. You are personally committed to completing a project with a conscientious attitude and good follow-through. You see to it that all assignments are completed correctly and uphold department and company standards. You hold the team accountable for their deadlines and commitments.
• A leader: As a member of the technical management team, you are respected, and your counsel is sought by developers and nontechnical partners. You advise senior management and help socialize business and technical strategic decisions to the front-line engineers. You are an evangelist for coding best practices and styles, unit testing standards, and good documentation. You are an effective manager of people and embrace all responsibilities – pleasant and otherwise – associated with performance management and ensuring your team has what it needs to succeed. You are a self-starter with a positive attitude who people want to follow.
• Accountable: You are the greatest critic of what you deliver. You are proud of your work, and you stand by it. You are humbled but not defeated by failure and accept it as a critical part of learning. You are honest and never blame or project frustrations onto others. You are willing to go above and beyond to accomplish your goals.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead a global cross-functional engineering team (dev, qa, devops disciplines) to deliver scalable SaaS solutions in cloud environments (AWS, Azure, or GCP)
• Own technical design decisions and guide Development teams through AGILE SDLC.
• Oversee architectural design, coding standards, DevOps integration, CI/CD pipelines, and software delivery lifecycle.
• Collaborate with Product, Architecture, and Business stakeholders to align technology with business strategy and roadmap.
• Lead Engineering teams in Increment and Sprint Planning.
• Ensure platform security, compliance (e.g., SOC 2, GDPR), scalability, and performance.
• Drive modernization and cloud migration initiatives for legacy mortgage systems.
• Mentor senior engineers, foster a high-performance culture, and support career development.
• Own delivery metrics with Agile delivery managers, resource planning, and risk management.
• Experience leading API Governance initiatives such as Unit Test Coverage using SonarQube and or API standards, etc.
• Experience with Azure DevOps, git, maven or shell scripting
• Perform other duties as required

Required Qualifications:

• 8+ years of experience in software engineering, with 4+ years in technical leadership/management roles.
• Deep expertise in cloud-native architecture and SaaS platforms (preferably AWS).
• Strong experience in the mortgage or financial services domain – loan servicing systems, document management, SAAS platforms.
• Proficiency in modern programming languages (e.g., Java, .NET, Node.js, Python, React, SQL) and microservices architecture. (event driven architecture experience is a plus)
• Experience with API development, event-driven systems, and integrations with third-party platforms.
• Familiarity with security and compliance standards relevant to fintech/mortgage.
• Strong people leadership, communication, and stakeholder management skills.
