Why Altruist

Altruist describes itself as the third-largest custodian by advisors served, with nearly 5,000 advisors trusting it to safeguard client assets. Built as a fully integrated digital brokerage platform from the start, it is now extending that with Hazel, an AI assistant for advisors that handles note-taking, email drafting, and meeting summaries with Salesforce and Redtail integrations. Much of the current hiring push centers on the Hazel team in San Francisco.

Day to day, this is an in-person culture: teams work a structured hybrid schedule, three days per week in offices in Los Angeles, San Francisco, or Dallas. The careers page spells out the values plainly: Kindness (listen, understand, respect one another), Brilliance (stay hungry, keep a growth mindset), and Grit (a bias toward action and a laser focus on the mission).
