Senior Software Engineer - UI

About Us

Lendi is Australia's #1 online home loan platform and we're building technology to take the hard work out of home loans. We're passionate about how tech can revolutionise our industry and solve a key pain point in peoples' lives.

Current technology for borrowers and mortgage professionals is comically outdated and inefficient. We're changing the landscape in two ways: first, by giving borrowers the tools that give them control of the most important financial decision of their lives. Second, by saving mortgage professionals from the drudgery of today's tools and making their jobs both interesting and meaningful.

Our developers and engineers are the key people leading that revolution.
