About 9fin
The world's largest asset class, debt, operates with the worst data. Technology has revolutionized equity markets with electronic trading, quant algos and instantaneous news. However, in debt capital markets, the picture is completely different. It still behaves like it's in the 1980s; trillions of dollars of trades are placed over the phone, news is slow, and corporate credit information is imperfect and scattered. Our mission is to change this.
9fin's proprietary technology delivers fast and comprehensive financial, credit, legal & ESG analysis. Our clients are able to make faster, more informed decisions, win more business and most importantly, save time. Our fast growing list of clients include 9 of the top 10 Investment Banks, leading Asset Managers, Hedge Funds and Law Firms.
About this role
We are seeking two Senior Product Designers to join our UK based Private 9fin and Leveraged Finance team. These are both key roles, focused on shaping the future of 9fin. You'll be designing user experiences that will change how our customers work with complex financial information.
Every day is different, but here are a few things you might have worked on recently if you were already part of the team:
Designing an advanced filtering interface that helps users quickly find and act on specific financial information across multiple data sources.
Improving existing tools based on user feedback and usage data. For example refining data visualisation components to make complex financial relationships clear and actionable.
Refactoring an admin interface to maximise confidence and reduce time on task.
Creating and testing clickable prototypes, then using feedback to refine your ideas before development.
Running discovery interviews to understand how users currently work, then distilling those insights into clear user journeys.
Working with engineers to optimise complex workflows, ensuring efficiency without sacrificing functionality.
Contributing to our design system to ensure consistency across new features.
Leading workshops with the team to align on user needs and map out potential solutions.
To be effective, you don't need any knowledge of the Debt Capital Markets industry, but you should be eager to learn and excited to dive deep into this product area.
You'll be joining a cross-functional team with a PM and multiple engineers, where you'll have significant autonomy to shape both the vision and execution of new features. While visual polish is important, your focus will be on creating intuitive, efficient user experiences that solve real problems.
