Equity Smart Home Loans (ESHL) is a technology-driven mortgage brokerage and real estate organization. We are building a modern infrastructure for residential lending and real estate services, with a strong focus on automation, integration, and team empowerment. Our IT team plays a vital role in driving innovation and enabling scalable growth across all departments.

As we restructure our IT department, we are seeking a strategic and operationally skilled IT Manager to oversee and drive our internal technology initiatives.

The IT Manager will lead the planning, execution, and coordination of IT operations across the company. You will oversee system administration, software provisioning, onboarding automation, and cross-departmental technical projects. This role is not about deep technical specialization in a single area, but about project management, systems logic, and strategic implementation across our tech stack. You’ll supervise a team that includes a virtual assistant (VA), an IT Support Coordinator, and a Web Developer.

This role requires a tech-savvy operations leader who can bridge technical and business goals, help implement AI-driven automation, and serve as a partner to other departments.

• Maintain a working knowledge of our full tech stack including: Google Workspace, RingCentral, LendingPad, Fannie Mae/Freddie Mac integrations, internal portals, and various websites.

• Provision and manage software and user licenses, ensuring role-based system access across departments.

• Collaborate on the configuration and integration of business-critical systems; act as a facilitator, not necessarily the system owner.

• Lead cross-departmental tech-related projects with defined milestones, timelines, and deliverables.

• Propose and implement tech improvements, including automation and AI-driven solutions for business processes.

• Monitor and help reduce system sprawl by identifying underutilized platforms and recommending consolidation or sunset plans.

• Work closely with department heads to understand technology needs and coordinate implementations accordingly.
