In their respective roles, Eriksson will define and execute on the platform’s strategic roadmap, while Faucher will operationalize Ridgeline’s scale through its next phase of growth and beyond.
Eriksson brings 25 years of experience in fintech, most recently serving as Global Managing Director of Wealth and Investment Technologies at SS&C Advent. While there, he led teams spanning portfolio accounting, client communications, trading, compliance, and data management for global markets.
Faucher joins Ridgeline after an 18-year career at Workday, most recently as Senior Vice President of Revenue Operations, Strategy, and Planning. She will leverage her diverse experience across enterprise SaaS to help Ridgeline achieve its strategic and performance goals.
“Daniel and Lisa are two of the most impressive leaders I’ve encountered in their respective spheres,” said Dave Blair, CEO. “They are joining us at a pivotal time; their combined experience intersects perfectly with Ridgeline’s ambitions to revolutionize investment management technology. I look forward to working with them to accelerate the value we can deliver to our customers while redefining the future of the industry.”
“[Ridgeline Founder] Dave Duffield asked me the main reason I joined, and it’s simple: the people; their attitude and the energy here was impressive. This is a place where you can do great work, and I believe my passion for people, progress, and drive will fit in very well,” said Eriksson.
Added Faucher, “Ridgeline is on the tipping point of exponential growth and will become the leader in the industry; it has all the right ingredients. We are moving fast and I’m excited to be a part of the next chapter.”
