Details
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 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, the BQuant user experience must evolve to meet changing customer needs and expectations.
Responsibilities
- Drive early ideation and execution of enhancements to BQuant across programmatic and graphical interfaces.
- Address user problems such as managing compute usage, integrating AI code assistants, application publishing workflows, and API design.
- Participate in ideation exercises that shape the longer-term product vision.
- Collaborate closely with engineers to execute design concepts.
- Define and lead user research projects to inform design decisions.
- Apply new technologies and tools to improve and accelerate the design process.
- Work with cross-functional partners (UX designers and researchers across Bloomberg, product managers, engineers, sales and customer-facing teams, and program managers).
Requirements
- Undergraduate or Graduate degree in HCI, Interaction Design, Information Architecture, Visual Communication, or other design-related field.
- 4+ years of experience in several of the following: user research, designing for complex user workflows, service design, product design, interaction design, UI and visual design, and prototyping.
- Familiarity with core concepts and interaction design challenges related to cloud computing and IDEs.
- Track record of applying User-Centered research and design practices and tools to solve challenging design problems.
- Excellent communication and presentation skills.
- Curiosity and aptitude to research existing and emerging best practices in HCI/UX.
- Enthusiasm for shaping the user experience across all product surfaces, not just graphical interfaces.
- Financial domain experience is an advantage but not essential.
Portfolio
Applicants should be prepared to submit two detailed design projects showing artifacts across the full project lifecycle (user research, personas, sketches, user journeys, task flows, wireframes, storyboards, success metrics, etc.). Detailed wireframes illustrating step-by-step workflows for complex solutions are requested.
Compensation & Benefits
Salary Range: 160,000 - 210,000 USD Annual + Benefits + Bonus
The company offers a comprehensive benefits plan and total rewards that may include merit increases, incentive compensation (exempt roles only), paid holidays, paid time off, medical, dental, vision, short and long term disability benefits, 401(k) with match, life insurance, and various wellness programs.
