Brace

Why Brace Exists - Our Mission:

If you are a borrower in danger of defaulting on your home loan, the industry currently handles it with paper applications through the mail, multiple phone calls, and 150+ pages of legal forms. This process takes weeks. Homeowners regularly miss deadlines and risk losing their homes. The biggest player in the industry uses fifty-year-old software written in Cobol. Everyone of us knows a family that has gone through this.

Brace’s SaaS solution allows homeowners to apply for relief in minutes, including uploading documents and signing digitally. During the worst of COVID's financial impact, our solution helped our clients assist over 100k of their borrowers. We made a positive difference in people’s lives!

Our tech stack is mostly Java, Vert.x Futures based, with some Elixir and Python for spice; it's hosted on AWS using Terraform and Kubernetes, sitting on a PostgreSQL database. The frontend is React/Typescript/Json Schemas from scratch. We have interesting third party integration challenges, and lots of room for you to bring your opinions and shape our tech.
