Job description

This is a fully remote role open to candidates in Europe, Latin America, Asia and North America.

Loansure builds the data-driven Loan Acquisition System behind direct mail and lead generation for mortgage lenders. We are standing up an internal AI agent capability: orchestrated AI agents doing real production work, starting with marketing copy production and expanding across the business. A cross-functional agile team of engineers, data scientists, and business SMEs is already in motion, alongside an external delivery partner running a proof of concept. This role owns keeping all of it on track.

This is a hybrid project and delivery role. You will run the agile process for the agent team, may assist with writing PRDs and hold vendor delivery to those specs. You operate with a high degree of autonomy; we expect you to surface risk early, keep executive-level status honest, and never let a proof of concept drift from its acceptance criteria.

Position Responsibilities:

• Own the agent team delivery plan and roadmap milestones; keep progress, risks, and decisions visible to executive stakeholders
• Run scrum for a cross-functional team: sprint planning, backlog management, standups, retros
• Manage delivery partner engagements end to end: milestone tracking, deliverable acceptance, scope and change control
• Define and enforce the Definition of Done for agent workflows moving from proof of concept to production
• Coordinate model, tooling, and platform decisions across engineering, data science, and business owners

Qualifications:

• 5+ years in project, product or technical program management delivering software; comfortable ramping fast as a contractor
• Hands-on familiarity with LLM and agentic systems: prompting, evaluation frameworks, and orchestration tooling (e.g., n8n, LangGraph, or agent SDKs from Anthropic or OpenAI)
• Experience managing vendor delivery: SOW scoping, acceptance criteria, milestone-based engagements
• Strong agile facilitation across mixed technical and non-technical teams
• Writing executives actually read: concise status, clear asks, no filler

Nice to have

• Mortgage, fintech, or other regulated-industry experience
• Marketing operations or direct mail production background
• Working familiarity with SQL, Snowflake, or AWS
