About the role
The SVP of Development and Enterprise Architecture leads the evolution of eMoney Advisor’s engineering organization into an AI-first, platform-driven, and product-centric ecosystem. This leader is responsible for redefining how software is built, delivered, and operated by embedding AI, automation, and data intelligence across the entire software development lifecycle. This role leads both Development and Architecture, partnering closely with Product Leadership and other Business leaders to deliver differentiated wealth management and financial wellness solutions, ensuring engineering teams understand what, why, and the expected outcomes of every initiative. Ensure development leaders can clearly articulate the customer problem being solved, the strategic rationale, and the business benefits of their work. Foster a culture where engineers actively participate in solution design and innovation, not simply execution. The SVP will build and scale high-quality, intelligent platforms, systems, and services that are extensible, resilient, secure, and continuously evolving. As a key member of the Technology leadership team reporting to the Head of Technology, this role is accountable for driving engineering strategy, accelerating delivery through AI-enabled practices, and creating sustainable competitive advantage through technology innovation.
