Software Engineer

Are you passionate about building highly accurate, calculation-intensive financial systems where correctness, scale, and transparency are critical? Do you enjoy solving complex quantitative challenges involving large datasets, financial calculations, and analytics infrastructure? Are you looking for an opportunity to help shape the next generation of investment performance and analytics technology?

Ridgeline is seeking a Senior Software Engineer to help scale our investment performance and analytics platform. This role sits at the intersection of software engineering, quantitative financial analytics, and investment technology. You will design and build sophisticated systems that power performance measurement, attribution, and reporting across complex investment portfolios.

The investment performance domain includes nuanced financial methodologies, complex asset behaviors, and institution-grade reporting requirements. Candidates who have worked on investment analytics or other quantitative financial platforms tend to ramp most successfully in this environment.

While experience with performance measurement systems is highly valuable, we recognize candidates may come from adjacent areas of investment technology. Engineers with experience in portfolio analytics, risk systems, portfolio accounting, market data, trading systems, or other quantitative financial platforms are encouraged to apply.

By joining Ridgeline, you'll help redefine investment management technology while working alongside a team committed to collaboration, learning, and technical excellence.

Our hybrid model is 3 days in office per week.

Relocation assistance is available for qualified candidates.

You must be authorized to work in the United States without sponsorship.

The Impact You Will Make**

You'll play a key role in designing and evolving Ridgeline's investment performance and analytics platform, building systems that support sophisticated reporting workflows and help investment managers make informed decisions. Working in a fast-paced, collaborative environment, you'll partner closely with product, strategy, and engineering teams to design scalable solutions, drive technical decision-making, and influence the direction of a growing platform.

In this role, you'll contribute throughout the software development lifecycle, from requirements gathering and design reviews through implementation, testing, and deployment. You'll develop systems capable of supporting complex asset classes including fixed income, derivatives, private equity, and other alternative investments, while helping optimize critical calculations such as time-weighted returns (TWR), internal rates of return (IRR), and performance attribution methodologies.
