Wealth Management Advisor – Strategy, GTM & Product

Advisor – Wealth Management Strategy, GTM & ProductAbout Us

We are building a new operating model for the next decade of wealth management: a unified, connected, and agentic operating system designed to automate the most manual, fragmented, and compliance-heavy workflows across large RIAs and wealth management firms.

Our initial focus is on high-friction back-office and compliance workflows, including client onboarding, KYC readiness, account opening, documentation review, NIGO prevention, compliance review, and post-onboarding operational updates.

We believe the next generation of wealth management infrastructure will not be another static workflow tool. It will be an intelligent operating layer that connects systems, understands firm-specific requirements, coordinates workflows across teams, and helps advisors, operations, and compliance teams move work from intake to completion with far less manual effort.

We are looking for a senior Executive Advisor with CEO, COO, CTO, President, Head of Operations, Head of Technology, or equivalent executive-level experience at a large RIA, wealth management firm, broker-dealer, custodian, or wealthtech platform.

Role Overview

This is a strategic advisory role for a senior wealth management executive who understands how large advisory firms operate, make technology decisions, evaluate vendors, run pilots, and adopt new operating models.

The ideal advisor has firsthand experience leading or overseeing operations, technology, compliance, platform strategy, advisor experience, or enterprise transformation inside a large RIA or wealth management organization.

You will work directly with the founder to help shape the company’s pilot strategy, go-to-market motion, product roadmap, strategic positioning, and fundraising narrative.

Key ResponsibilitiesExecutive Market Guidance

Advise on how large RIAs and wealth management firms evaluate new technology, including buyer priorities, decision-making processes, budget ownership, implementation concerns, and adoption barriers.

Help us understand the executive-level pain points around operational scale, advisor productivity, compliance burden, client onboarding, workflow fragmentation, and technology modernization.

Provide insight into how CEOs, COOs, CTOs, Chief Compliance Officers, and operations leaders think about AI, automation, platform risk, vendor selection, and ROI.

Pilot Strategy & Design Partner Development

Help identify the right early design partners and pilot customers among large RIAs, enterprise wealth firms, aggregators, broker-dealers, custodians, or platform providers.

Advise on pilot structure, including target customer profiles, use cases, success metrics, implementation scope, pricing assumptions, stakeholder mapping, and conversion strategy.

Help define what evidence large firms need before moving from a pilot to a broader commercial deployment.

Go-To-Market Strategy

Advise on our GTM strategy for the wealth management market, including customer segmentation, executive messaging, sales motion, channel partnerships, strategic alliances, and enterprise adoption paths.

Help refine our positioning around an agentic operating system for wealth management, with emphasis on operational leverage, compliance risk reduction, workflow accuracy, advisor productivity, and scalable client service.

Identify potential strategic partners, including custodians, technology platforms, consultants, enterprise RIAs, aggregators, broker-dealers, and wealth management infrastructure providers.

Product Roadmap & Workflow Prioritization

Provide executive-level feedback on the product roadmap, especially around which workflows matter most to large wealth management firms and which capabilities create the strongest wedge.

Advise on product priorities across client onboarding, KYC, account opening, documentation review, NIGO prevention, compliance workflows, CRM updates, custodian workflows, and operational exception management.

Help translate real executive and operational pain into product requirements, pilot milestones, enterprise readiness criteria, and long-term platform opportunities.

Fundraising & Strategic Narrative

Help sharpen our fundraising story by strengthening the market thesis, wedge strategy, competitive positioning, platform narrative, and long-term category vision.

Advise on how to communicate the opportunity to venture investors, strategic investors, and potential partners.

Provide feedback on pitch materials, market sizing, investor positioning, GTM assumptions, and enterprise adoption strategy.

• Wealthtech or fintech executive with deep experience selling into or building for large RIAs and enterprise wealth firms
• Strategic advisor with direct relationships across the wealth management executive ecosystem

• Large RIA operations and organizational structure
• Client onboarding and account opening workflows

What We Are Looking For

We are looking for a senior, practical, and highly credible advisor who can help us answer questions such as:

• What are the most painful operational and compliance workflows inside large RIAs?
• Which workflows are urgent enough for firms to adopt a new AI-native operating layer?
• Who is the real buyer inside a large RIA: CEO, COO, CTO, CCO, Head of Operations, or Head of Advisor Experience?
• What does a successful pilot need to prove?
• What objections will large firms raise around AI, compliance, security, integrations, and workflow control?
• How should we position the company to executives, design partners, strategic partners, and investors?
• Which product roadmap gives us the strongest wedge into large wealth management firms?
• Which partners or channels could accelerate credibility and distribution?

Engagement Structure

This is a flexible advisory role. The engagement may be structured on an hourly, monthly, or project-based basis depending on fit and scope.

We are open to working with former or current senior executives who can contribute strategic insight, industry credibility, product feedback, pilot guidance, and high-quality introductions.

Why Join Us

Large wealth management firms are facing rising client complexity, growing compliance expectations, advisor talent shortages, fragmented technology stacks, and increasing pressure to deliver high-touch service at scale.

At the same time, many of the most important back-office and compliance workflows remain manual, document-heavy, exception-driven, and spread across disconnected systems.

We are building an AI-native operating layer for wealth management — one that can connect systems, understand documents, reason through workflows, and help firms complete complex operational and compliance tasks with greater speed, accuracy, and control.

This is an opportunity to help shape a new category in wealth management technology and influence the product, GTM strategy, and executive narrative from the earliest stage.

To Apply

Please share a brief summary of your executive experience in wealth management, RIA operations, wealthtech, fintech strategy, enterprise technology, or platform transformation.

We are especially interested in candidates who have held CEO, COO, CTO, President, Head of Operations, Head of Technology, or similar senior leadership roles at large RIAs, wealth management firms, custodians, broker-dealers, or enterprise wealth platforms.
