He didn't. The primary role of the messiah for Jews is to serve as King, to usher in the messianic era of peace. There is still war, and there isn't a messianic kingdom, so Jesus didn't fulfill the role of Jewish messiah.
Did Jesus convert?
No Jesus did not convert. The Old Testament tells us of a new covenant that God was giving to the Jewish people in "time to come". When Jesus (the Son of God) came to earth in human form that "time had come" Jesus simply instituted the new covenant. It was the Jewish people who failed to recognize the Messiah and follow Him into the new covenant.
