As the product manager for Finicity’s Mortgage Verification Service, Layton Checketts has been instrumental in bringing a one-touch solution for digital asset, income and employment verification successfully to market. Checketts worked tirelessly, collaborating with lenders, ecosystem partners and others to create a solution that allows consumers to permission bank and payroll data quickly and easily so lenders can verify assets, income and employment. Checketts spent a significant amount of time over the past year understanding current workflows, identifying pain points and then creating a valuable solution for both lenders and borrowers. He worked with stakeholders to develop a roadmap and priorities and went through multiple iterations with engineering, design and the client to arrive at the best outcome. Throughout the process, Checketts took feedback where needed but also educated others about how to adopt a digital-first mindset. In his short two-year tenure at Finicity, Checketts has moved from a scrum master to a product lead.
