WORK HISTORY

ABOUT JEFF ENGELHARDT

As a senior technology and operations executive within global asset management, I have built my career at the intersection of investment operations, data management, enterprise platforms, and data architecture. I specialize in leading complex, regulated environments through large-scale transformation while maintaining platform stability, operational continuity, and investor confidence. Throughout my career, I have guided global organizations through high-stakes migrations, integrations, and divestitures supporting hundreds of billions in assets under management. I have led enterprise platform transitions across the US and Europe, unified fragmented data ecosystems, and enabled scalable operating models that support growth, acquisitions, and evolving regulatory demands. My work has consistently focused on aligning technology execution with investment, trading, compliance, and reporting priorities. My leadership style is collaborative, precise, and execution-focused. I am known for dismantling silos, isolating root causes others miss, and building trust across geographically distributed teams. I lead with transparency and accountability, empowering technologists and business partners to deliver reliable outcomes under pressure while positioning organizations for long-term expansion and innovation. Some of my accomplishments include: Leading a $115B AUM platform migration across 11 global franchises while maintaining uninterrupted investment operations. Directing global data architecture supporting €180B AUM, enabling unified investment, risk, and regulatory reporting across seven regions. Reducing TBA trading deadline from 48 hours to a 6-hour pre-expiration window through workflow automation and DTCC/EPN integration. Completing a full US divestiture and platform separation in under 18 months with no incremental staffing. Sustaining exceptional team stability, with average staff tenure exceeding 17 years during multi-year transformation initiatives. I bring a steady, pragmatic approach to technology leadership—one grounded in deep operational fluency, disciplined execution, and respect for the complexity of global asset management platforms. I am always open to conversations with peers, partners, and organizations navigating large-scale platform change, integration, or modernization.
