This role is central to supporting Hometap’s mission of enabling homeowners to access the equity in their homes without taking on debt, through innovative home equity investment solutions.
As Counsel, you will partner closely with cross-functional teams, providing nuanced legal and regulatory guidance on matters ranging from data privacy and artificial intelligence to dispute resolution.

The remaining 30% of your responsibilities will focus on commercial and vendor agreements. You will draft, review, and negotiate technology contracts, vendor arrangements, and strategic partnership agreements, collaborating with finance, technology, and operations teams to ensure compliance and manage third-party risk.
The ideal candidate brings a J.D. from an accredited law school, active bar membership, and at least four years of relevant legal experience, including in-house exposure. Experience in consumer financial services, fintech, mortgage lending, or other highly regulated, consumer-facing industries is strongly preferred. You are adept at structuring and negotiating commercial agreements, comfortable navigating new legal domains, and skilled at translating complex requirements into clear, actionable guidance for business partners.
This is an opportunity to make a meaningful impact on Hometap’s growth and the lives of homeowners, working in a collaborative, mission-driven environment recognized for innovation and workplace culture.
