Founded by visionary entrepreneur Dave Duffield (co-founder of both PeopleSoft and Workday), the company was created to modernize an industry held back by outdated, disconnected technology. Powered by a single, real-time data set and embedded AI, Ridgeline helps firms automate complexity, accelerate collaboration, and deliver tailored client experiences at scale, without added headcount or risk. Ridgeline is headquartered in Lake Tahoe, with offices in New York, Reno, the Bay Area, and Dublin, Ireland, and is recognized by Fast Company as a "Best Workplace for Innovators," by Frost & Sullivan as a "Technology Innovation Leader," and by The Software Report as a "Top 100 Software Company." ## Why this role exists As a Solutions Consultant at Ridgeline, you will play a critical role in driving sales success by providing functional and technical expertise during the sales cycle. This role offers the chance to engage with leaders across the asset management industry, showcase Ridgeline’s unified cloud-native platform, and directly influence the adoption of modern investment management solutions. You’ll collaborate with cross-functional teams to deliver exceptional client experiences, from RFP to deployment. At Ridgeline, how we work matters as much as what we build. Ridgeliners act like owners, choose growth over comfort, and communicate with transparency. We assume positive intent, bias toward action, and bring solutions—not just problems.

In select locations (including the San Francisco Bay Area, CA, and the New York City Metro Area), the typical starting range is $211,000–$264,000 OTE.
