Taking The Long View

Building a financial advisory platform is an expansive undertaking. To address this challenge, Ridgeline is betting on people, partnerships, and technology. Core systems are what we’re tackling first. Specifically, portfolio accounting and trade order management. Soon after, we’ll add breadth across the front, middle, and back offices. Our applications will remove the need for integrations and will lay the groundwork for universal workflow and automation.

While it’s daunting to build an enterprise technology stack from scratch, we see an enormous opportunity to deliver a modern infrastructure supporting our applications. Technology and architecture are fundamental to our strategy. We’ve made a big bet on a serverless architecture built on Amazon Web Services. We’re using modern languages and frameworks (Python, Go, React), and we’re dedicated to design thinking and agile software development. We’ve got substantial technical challenges to solve, but we’ve assembled a world-class engineering team unencumbered by legacy technology.
