Senior Interaction Designer - Quant & Analytics

Description & Requirements

• Who are we?
• Bloomberg is the global leader in business and financial data, news, and insights. Using the power of technology, we connect the world’s decision-makers to accurate information on the financial markets and help them make faster, smarter decisions.
• What is the challenge?
• Bloomberg’s Python-based data science platform, BQuant, helps our customers carry out financial analysis at scale. Combining the power of Python and cloud computing with Bloomberg’s proprietary data and APIs, BQuant lets financial professionals break free from the limitations of spreadsheet-based workflows, whether through creating applications or building and testing models in code. As AI transforms the competitive landscape, we need to continue evolving the BQuant user experience to keep pace with the changing needs and expectations of our customers.
• What will you do?
• We are looking for an Experienced UX Designer to help drive forward the early ideation and eventual execution of enhancements to BQuant. BQuant is a complex product, so your projects will address a wide range of user problems, ranging from managing compute usage and integrating AI code assistants through to application publishing workflows and the design of APIs. You’ll participate in ideation exercises that shape the longer-term vision for the product, while also collaborating closely with engineers on the execution of your design concepts.
• You will combine strategic and detailed-oriented user experience design skills with an ability to define and lead user research projects. Over time, your awareness of Bloomberg’s rich product ecosystem will grow, helping you to contextualize your design proposals and find cross-platform synergies that can create value for our customers. You will find ways to apply new technologies and tools to improve and accelerate the design process itself, and you will have an opportunity to shape a range of product interfaces, both programmatic and graphical.
• Who will you work with
• To effectively tackle these challenges, you will partner closely with:
• Other UX designers and researchers working on BQuant and across the wider suite of Bloomberg products
• Product Managers and Engineers on the BQuant team
• Sales and other customer-facing teams who provide valuable insights into customer opportunities and pain points
