• Lead cross-functional delivery (Technology, Product, Operations, vendors): manage plans, cutovers, dependencies, risks, test readiness, and releases.
• Lead developing the platform roadmap (modernization, cloud enablement, integration/API strategy).

• Platform Architecture, Integration & Data

• Provide technical oversight for architecture and integrations across OMS/EMS platforms, custodians/brokers, market data providers, and downstream reporting (APIs, messaging, streaming).
• Advance the private investments technology stack, integrating into portfolio management workflows (subscription/commitments, capital calls/distributions, valuations, Schedule K1s/documents, data onboarding).
• Integrate private investments data/events into enterprise portfolio workflows and consumers (analytics, performance/attribution, operations, accounting, risk, reporting), aligning data models and controls.
• Govern data lineage, quality, and timing across investment processes (pricing, benchmarks, performance, attribution).

• Operations, Risk & Service Management

• Own and report on platform stability/reliability and operational readiness: resilience, performance/latency, capacity, and recovery planning for market-hours workloads.
• Implement observability (monitoring, alerting, logging, tracing) and service level objectives/service level indicators; drive stability/backlog initiatives.
