Lead Technologist

SVP, Front Office Technology · Neuberger

Event-driven trading, risk, and agentic-AI platforms across financial services.

About

I lead Private Markets Front Office Technology at Neuberger, running engineering for the firm's Alternatives business.

My path here was unusual. I started in 2012 as a support analyst and worked nearly every seat in financial technology on the way up: QA, BA, project manager, developer. Along the way I onboarded traders in Hong Kong on a new EMS, built real-time signal pipelines for quant desks, stood up risk factor models, supported fixed income and hedge funds, and built research systems that won a $1B+ institutional mandate. The FRM came somewhere in the middle. The work has spanned equities, fixed income, and alternatives. And front, middle, and back office along the way.

That breadth is the difference. I can sit with a portfolio manager and talk through basis risk or scenario analysis, then build the system that calculates it. And I know what the trader, BA, and support analyst on the other end need from it, because I've been the BA and the support analyst, and I've built the systems the trader depends on.

The last few years have been the harder problems: replacing batch data warehouses with event-driven architecture, getting agentic AI from prototype to production, modernizing CI/CD across forty-plus services. Most of it cuts across teams, which means the real work is building alignment among technologists who don't report to me (about a hundred of them on the current roadmap).

Lately I spend more time on where the industry is headed: what AI changes about research, risk, and operations; how investment platforms get rebuilt; what kind of engineering organization can keep up. Invited to speak at KubeCon 2025 and RedHat Summit 2026 on some of this. Always up for a conversation.

Selected Work

$1B+ Institutional mandate secured via a quantitative research platform built as sole technical contributor.
100% Audit pass-rate maintained across all applications since 2019, with zero material findings through annual DR.
100+ Technologists aligned across data, risk, engineering, and investment functions through cross-team roadmaps.
40+ Services migrated to GitOps via an Azure DevOps → ArgoCD → Kubernetes blueprint.

Larry is very dedicated and driven to produce highest quality results.

How I Work

  • Build for the people on both ends.

    The trader, the BA, and the support analyst all need different things from the same system. Having been the BA and the support analyst, and having built the systems the trader depends on, shapes every architectural decision.

  • Speak both languages fluently.

    Sit with a portfolio manager and work through basis risk or scenario analysis, then build the system that calculates it. Engineering credibility starts with the business problem, not the framework.

  • Influence beats authority.

    Most cross-functional work involves technologists who don't report to me. Building alignment is the real job. And the multiplier on everything else.

Currently

  • Reading Co-Intelligence: Living and Working with AI by Ethan Mollick
  • Building Agentic systems
  • Watching Anthropics developer conference
  • Listening Behind The Tech with Kevin Scott
  • Thinking about How far can generative AI go in transforming workflows?
