About Noah Holdings

Noah Holdings (NYSE: NOAH) is the world's leading wealth management group serving the global Chinese community, founded in 2005 and listed on the New York Stock Exchange. The firm serves high-net-worth and ultra-high-net-worth clients across mainland China, Hong Kong, Singapore, the United States, Japan, Canada, and beyond, offering diversified financial solutions spanning private equity, fixed income, secondary markets, and cross-border asset allocation. With USD 20 billion in assets under management, Noah serves as the premier bridge connecting Chinese wealth to global capital markets.

Role Overview

At a defining inflection point where AI is reshaping wealth management at its core, Noah Holdings is seeking a visionary Chief Technology Officer who combines strategic foresight with engineering execution. Reporting directly to the CEO, the CTO will own the company's entire global technology agenda — from AI strategy to platform architecture, data and risk infrastructure, and a 200+ person engineering organisation. This is a rare opportunity to be the technology architect of the next chapter of the world's leading Chinese wealth management platform.

Key Responsibilities

Define and execute the company's technology strategy, ensuring full alignment with Noah's global business expansion and AI transformation agenda; act as a key strategic advisor to the CEO and Board on technology matters
Lead the deployment of large language models and AI capabilities across wealth management use cases, including intelligent advisory, client profiling, risk prediction, and compliance automation, driving differentiated product competitiveness
Architect and build the company's fintech core systems — including iCRM, trading platforms, and data infrastructure — to support compliant, cross-border operations across multiple jurisdictions
Oversee cloud architecture and infrastructure modernisation to ensure high availability, scalability, and regulatory compliance across global nodes (mainland China, Hong Kong, Singapore, and beyond)
Establish a data-driven risk management framework, advancing quantitative risk models and intelligent monitoring platforms aligned with local regulatory requirements in each market
Build and lead a 200+ person high-performing engineering organisation; create talent pipelines, cultivate engineering culture, and attract top-tier technical talent to Noah
Partner with business, product, compliance and operations leadership to ensure technology and business objectives are tightly aligned; manage technology budgets and resource allocation

Requirements

Must-have

15+ years of technology experience, including at least 5 years in a senior technology leadership role (CTO, VP Engineering, or equivalent)
Proven track record in fintech systems building with deep understanding of wealth management, asset management, or financial services business logic and regulatory requirements
Hands-on experience taking AI/LLM products from concept to scale in financial services — not just evangelism but real production deployment
Extensive people leadership experience managing 200+ engineers, with a demonstrated ability to drive complex technology programmes cross-functionally and on time
Business-fluent in both Mandarin and English (written and spoken); proven ability to work effectively across cultures and time zones

Nice-to-have

First-hand experience scaling a fintech startup from zero to one or through a high-growth phase; comfortable making high-stakes technology decisions under resource constraints
Practical knowledge of technology compliance and data privacy across multiple jurisdictions, especially HK, SG, and mainland China
Prior CTO experience at a listed company or in a Pre-IPO environment, with familiarity of governance requirements that come with public company status

What We Offer

The world's leading Chinese wealth management platform at a historic AI inflection point
A direct seat at the strategic table — working alongside the CEO to shape the next decade of Noah
Global exposure across HK, SG, mainland China and beyond with genuine cross-border business depth
A highly competitive compensation package including a long-term incentive programme aligned with company performance
A high-performance, flat culture with real decision-making autonomy and meaningful technology investment
