Employer job description
From Vanguard's posting. “We” and “our” refer to the employer.
We are seeking a senior technology leader to serve as Head of Advice Portfolio Construction Technology—building and scaling the platforms that translate client needs into investment outcomes for millions of investors. This role sits squarely at the intersection of investment domain expertise and modern technology leadership, spanning risk profiling, asset allocation, portfolio construction, and ongoing portfolio management.
This is a rare seat for a leader who pairs deep investment acumen with proven engineering leadership. As Vanguard evolves rules-based toward next-generation, risk-optimization-driven portfolio construction, this leader will build in-house capability—not simply integrate vendors—and shape a multi-year transformation at scale. The current scope includes a budget of approximately $25M.
- A high-visibility platform leadership role driving the technology behind personalized advice and wealth management.
- Direct influence over the transition from rules-based to risk-based, optimization-driven portfolio construction.
