Optimal Blue VP of Product Management Tiffany McGarry Named 2025 HousingWire Tech Trendsetter
Optimal Blue leader recognized for driving client-driven innovation and advancing AI-powered mortgage technology
PLANO, Texas (Nov. 3, 2025) – Optimal Blue is proud to announce that Tiffany McGarry, vice president of product management, has been named a 2025 HousingWire Tech Trendsetters Award recipient. The annual award honors technology leaders whose vision and execution are shaping the future of the housing economy.
“I’m honored to be recognized as a HousingWire Tech Trendsetter,” said McGarry. “For me, innovation is about listening to our clients and turning their feedback into technology that truly makes a difference in their day-to-day work. I’m proud to help deliver solutions that empower lenders to adapt, compete, and thrive in a rapidly changing market.”
With more than 15 years in the industry, McGarry brings a rare blend of capital markets expertise and client service experience to her role, ensuring that every innovation is grounded in real-world impact. Since joining Optimal Blue in 2011, she has played a pivotal role in developing and launching technology that empowers lenders to adapt, compete, and thrive. McGarry helped advance Optimal Blue’s historical pricing capability, enabling the Optimal Blue® PPE to retain every ratesheet and lenders to price from any past point with complete accuracy. This work created the comprehensive dataset that underpins Optimal Blue’s data analytics and benchmarking, establishing the company as the definitive source for mortgage pricing and performance analysis.
Her leadership has been instrumental in bringing new tools to market, including Rules Optimizer, which streamlines investor relationships and automates complex workflows. She also guided the development of two AI-powered solutions: Ask Obi, a conversational executive AI assistant that delivers instant insights across a client’s Optimal Blue data, and Originator Assistant, which helps originators structure competitive deals and identify pricing opportunities.
McGarry’s focus on client outcomes is evident in the recent launch of a PPE enhancement that automates best efforts locks via API, saving capital markets teams valuable time and reducing errors. Her approach – listening to clients, collaborating across teams, and translating feedback into product innovation – has resulted in modern technology that lenders trust and rely on every day.
