Experience Designer

WHO WE ARE? 

For over 50 years, we have worked closely with investment and asset managers to become the world’s leading provider of integrated investment management solutions. We are 2,900+ colleagues with a broad range of nationalities, educations, professional experiences, ages, and backgrounds in general. SimCorp is an equal opportunity employer. We are committed to building a culture where diverse perspectives and expertise are integrated in our everyday work. We believe in the continual growth and development of our employees, so that we can provide best-in-class solutions to our clients. While striving to deliver client value, we believe it is vital to consider our people and our planet in every business decision we make. Acting responsibly is not optional. It is essential. 

WHY THIS ROLE IS IMPORTANT TO US 

SimCorp is seeking a Experience Designer with strong web design and UX skills to collaborate on our new Cloud stack as well as existing desktop functionality. We invite you to join our journey to Cloud, continuously innovating solutions from desktop to cutting-edge Web technologies. Experience Design is a practical, intentional, and integrative approach to creating life-centred products & services that not only work well but work well for people. It's the creative transformation of intent into outcome: positive, measurable change in human behaviour that drives business results. 

SimCorp's Global Experience Design team is a shared capability: our team structure is centralized but our engagements are distributed. We're responsible for product & service design excellence and we set the standards for quality human experiences across complete product-service offers. Experience Designers with SimCorp are versatile and resourceful. They're capable craftspeople with a range of skills and the ability to zoom in and out of details. They're also emotionally intelligent facilitators and activists able to adopt a strategic perspective when needed. Each member of our team is expected to be proactive and autonomous while also contributing to our collective work of constantly improving our in-house design practice, nurturing our community, and scaling an organizational culture of continuous learning that centres on people and outcomes. 

As a SimCorp Experience Designer you collaborate with business leaders, technologists, and other colleagues across disciplines. You facilitate cross-discipline creative collaboration, scale design, and conduct design research. You also have significant autonomy to ideate, prototype, and contribute to a Design System. With fellow SimCorp’ers you’ll iteratively design and deliver coherent solutions that are effective, meaningful, and fulfilling for people
 
WHAT YOU WILL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR 

Over the next year, a key priority is to continue expanding the SimCorp suite of portfolio management tools. Your challenge will be helping craft improved experiences for established business functions. The ability to understand current flows and find improvements will be key to your success. You’ll play a role in design system enhancement and its tactical implementation by collaborating closely with our Noida UI development team. In addition, you’ll help the organization adapt its thinking about design and user experience (and the inclusion of users in the design process) as we seek to create compelling, cohesive interaction patterns for our core user types. In return, you’ll learn about the unique challenges supporting institutional investors and work alongside incredibly talented, knowledgeable product and development partners.
