Job Description
Selene Finance LP is hiring a Doc-To-Data Analyst to help lead complex, loan-level investigations across mortgage servicing and loan boarding activities. This role focuses on reconciling data, resolving discrepancies, escalating high-impact exceptions, and driving corrective and preventive actions that strengthen operational controls and data quality.
Based in Dallas, TX, this onsite position partners with offshore associates, cross-functional stakeholders, Technology, and vendors to diagnose issues, validate mapping and transformation logic, and guide reconciliations through resolution and closure.
Responsibilities
- Act as the primary escalation point for offshore associates, prioritizing issues based on complexity, risk, aging, financial impact, and operational urgency.
- Lead complex investigations involving data discrepancies, mapping defects, reconciliation breaks, loan boarding issues, and system behavior, including conflicting documentation and unresolved audit findings.
- Perform advanced root cause analysis to determine whether issues stem from source data, documentation, business rules, mapping, extraction logic, system configuration, workflow execution, or manual processing.
- Select appropriate resolution paths, coordinate cross-functional stakeholders, and drive escalated issues through resolution and closure.
- Develop corrective and preventive action recommendations, monitor implementation, and help reduce recurring exceptions and control gaps.
- Lead complex reconciliations across source documentation, transfer data, Doc-to-Data outputs, boarding files, servicing system records, and downstream reporting.
- Interpret and validate code breakers, data dictionaries, field definitions, mapping specifications, transformation logic, and business rules to identify data conversion or reconciliation issues.
- Validate correction strategies and work with Technology, vendors, and business stakeholders to test and confirm mapping, system, or process changes.
- Perform or oversee complex loan audits involving multiple data sources, conflicting documentation, significant financial exposure, or unresolved boarding concerns.
- Lead investigation and resolution of complex, aged, unsupported, or high-risk corporate advance reconciliation items.
- Identify trends across exceptions, audits, and reconciliations to uncover systemic issues, emerging risks, control gaps, and automation opportunities.
- Develop and maintain reporting on exception volumes, audit findings, root causes, aging, resolution timeliness, reconciliation performance, and data quality.
- Translate analytical findings into clear, leadership-ready summaries covering issues, risk exposure, root causes, and recommended actions.
- Support improvements to KPIs, controls, procedures, workflows, reporting, automation, training materials, and audit-readiness standards.
- Mentor Business Analyst I and offshore team members on investigations, reconciliations, documentation standards, escalation quality, and analytical techniques.

- Experience supporting loan transfers, servicing conversions, data migrations, data mapping, or similar complex data activities preferred.
- Experience with corporate advance, escrow, cash, financial, or servicing-related reconciliations preferred.
- Advanced Microsoft Excel skills including lookup functions, PivotTables, data validation, exception analysis, and large-dataset reconciliation.
- Ability to interpret code breakers, data dictionaries, mapping specifications, transformation logic, business rules, and data conversion concepts.
