About the role

  • Altruist is in the midst of an exceptional growth phase, and we're hiring a Solutions Engineer.
  • In this role, you'll be a key technical and workflow subject matter expert for RIAs who are evaluating, adopting, or expanding their use of Altruist.
  • This is an ideal role for someone who understands advisor operations in the real world, loves working directly with advisors and operations teams, and wants to grow into a senior solutions/enterprise role over time.

Responsibilities

  • Develop deep, hands‑on expertise in the Altruist platform across account opening, trading and rebalancing, billing, reporting, digital onboarding, and client/advisor experience.
  • Maintain up‑to‑date knowledge of product releases, APIs, integrations, and best practices relevant to RIAs, and translate those into clear recommendations for how firms can operate more efficiently on Altruist.
  • RIA technology consulting & solution design
  • Partner with Client Development to conduct discovery sessions with RIA stakeholders (owners, COOs, operations leaders, advisors) to understand business models, client segments, service models, and operational pain points.
  • Design target‑state technology architectures that center Altruist as the core custodial and operating platform, alongside key third‑party systems (CRM, portfolio accounting, planning, analytics, digital onboarding, e‑signature).
  • Support the development of actionable technology and migration roadmaps, including quick wins, phased implementations, and change‑management plans tailored to each firm.
  • Sales engineering, demos, and pre‑sales support
  • Deliver customized demos and presentations that speak directly to the realities of RIAs (e.g., ACAT workflows, trading/rebalancing, reporting, billing, digital onboarding, and advisor/client experiences) and show how Altruist improves them.

Requirements

  • Build a strong understanding of how Altruist integrates with key third‑party systems (CRM, portfolio accounting, planning, analytics, digital onboarding, document management).
  • Travel as required during the pre‑ and post‑sales process (estimated ~10-25%, depending on client needs and territory).
  • 3+ years of experience in RIA/wealth management, custodial services, or advisor‑focused fintech, with direct exposure to advisor technology and operations.

Nice to have

  • Prior experience at a custodial platform, TAMP, or advisor‑focused fintech provider.
  • Experience designing or implementing integrated technology stacks, including CRM (e.g., Salesforce, Redtail, Wealthbox), portfolio accounting, planning software, and digital onboarding tools.
  • Relevant industry credentials (e.g., CFP®, CPA, CIMA®, PMP, or technology/operations designations).
  • Stunning, amenity-filled office spaces in Culver City, CA, San Francisco, CA, and Dallas, TX.
  • Financial guidance program (includes counseling on navigating debt, tracking personal spend, saving and planning goals, home-purchasing preparedness, etc.).
  • One month work from anywhere policy (with the exception of a few countries).
