Generation Home set out to re-engineer the traditional mortgage product, a mission that required blending sophisticated financial engineering with seamless consumer technology. To build and scale the platform, they faced a critical execution gap: the need for engineers and product managers capable of operating within high-stakes, compliance-heavy environments without sacrificing the velocity required for a Series A venture.
We built a sourcing strategy focused on regulated fintech resilience.
We prioritized candidates who understood the dual demands of high-growth lending platforms: the technical rigor of financial-grade reliability and the regulatory complexity of mortgage compliance workflows. Our strategy utilized direct sourcing from leading fintechs and established regulated lenders to identify builders comfortable with high-stakes infrastructure. By performing technical and product screenings calibrated for compliance-heavy environments, we ensured every candidate could navigate institutional rigor without sacrificing shipping velocity. Through close partnership with engineering and product leadership, we provided clear market benchmarking to position Generation Home as the primary destination for elite fintech talent, securing a core team capable of re-engineering the mortgage lifecycle at scale.
