CRE Debt Originator – VP, Commercial Real Estate (Remote)
Gumption, Atlanta, GA, United States
You've closed CRE financing deals. You know how to work with borrowers, navigate a lender matrix, and get a transaction across the finish line. Now imagine doing all of that with better technology, a stronger lender network, and economics that actually reflect your production. That's Gumption.
We're a capital markets platform built by CRE owners for CRE owners — and we're growing fast. We use AI and deep lender relationships to cut financing timelines in half and deliver best-in-market terms. We're looking for a proven CRE debt producer to own a market and build something big with us.
If you've spent time closing commercial real estate loans — as a mortgage broker, a bank CRE originator, a CMBS or agency loan officer, or a debt fund originator — this role was written for you.
About the Role This is a production role. You'll own origination from first call to close — sourcing opportunities, structuring debt, managing lender relationships, and driving your own pipeline. You'll have the backing of Gumption's AI-powered platform, a curated lender network, and a lean team that moves fast and cuts through the noise.
What You'll Be Doing
Source and close financing transactions:
Originate, structure, underwrite, and close debt transactions across CRE asset types — multifamily, industrial, retail, office, mixed‑use, and more. Bridge, CMBS, agency, construction, and balance sheet — you know the products.
Own your pipeline:
Leverage your existing relationships and build new ones with sponsors, property owners, funds, family offices, and CRE professionals. This is high‑activity origination — calls, emails, relationships.
Lead financial analysis:
Size debt, stress‑test deals, and interpret financial models including cash flow projections, sensitivity analyses, and valuations. Fluent in NOI, DSC, LTV, and IRR.
Prepare deal packages:
Draft sharp, accurate investment memoranda and lender packages that move fast.
Use the edge we've built:
Leverage Gumption's AI platform, lender matching tools, and CRM to work smarter and close more.
Who We're Looking For We want a producer — someone who has independently originated and closed commercial real estate loans, not just supported a team that did. We're specifically targeting candidates from:
Commercial mortgage brokerages (you've brokered and closed your own deals)
Bank, credit union, or insurance company CRE lending teams
CMBS, agency (Fannie/Freddie/HUD), or bridge lender origination desks
Debt funds or private credit platforms with direct borrower relationships
You Should Have
4+ years of hands‑on CRE debt origination — real origination, not just transaction support
A track record of independently closing deals (deal sizes of $2M+; annual production of $20M+ preferred)
Existing borrower or intermediary relationships you can bring to a new platform
Deep familiarity with CRE underwriting, capital stack structures, and lender criteria across asset types
Bachelor's degree in finance, real estate, accounting, or equivalent; CCIM, CFA, or CAIA is a plus
Why Gumption?
Base + uncapped upside:
Unlike most origination roles that are commission‑only, we offer a base salary plus uncapped commission — downside protection while you ramp, and no ceiling on what you can build.
The tech actually works:
Our AI platform pre‑underwrites deals, matches lenders, and eliminates the friction that slows deals down everywhere else. You'll close more, faster.
We move fast:
No bureaucracy. No politics. No committee approvals that kill momentum. We operate with an extreme sense of urgency — because time kills all deals.
High‑agency, flat team:
You own your market. We're not micromanagers. Produce results, earn the autonomy.
Health coverage:
Comprehensive medical benefits included.
The offices are legit:
Chattanooga (gym, sauna, cold plunge) and Birmingham (renovated warehouse, golf simulator). Remote to start, with the option to anchor in a market.
Apply on LinkedIn. You can also send your resume to careers@gumption.dev.
Gumption is proud to be an equal opportunity employer. We welcome candidates of all backgrounds and experiences and are committed to building a diverse, inclusive workplace.
