UI/UX DESIGN

Digital Product at Caspian One encapsulates all aspects of the UX and UI tech community - from initial research and design, to building platforms, data visualisation projects, shifts towards serverless architecture and more.


 

Caspian One has a successful history in sourcing and placing design skills in Canada.

As example, at the front of RBC's technological advancements is 'RBC Venture Labs' - where we secured contract employment for their Lead UI/UX Designer - who as of August 2020, has again extended her contract.

Alternatively, and more recently, we have been working closely with Paytm and are now in the latter stages of the process with a UI/UX Designer for their Global Growth Marketing platform.

In the financial technology markets many developers pursue careers in UI/UX due to the greater interaction with people across the business. There tends to be higher levels of feedback and engagement, which can result in greater insights around what is and isn’t working, along with increased levels of job satisfaction and fulfilment.

This is also supported by the types of projects undertaken, as they can often be perceived as more creative and exciting - for example, taking thousands of numbers on a trading platform and using this data to build interactive and AI driven graphs, charts and easy to digest visuals.

Generally demand is not just for a JavaScript developer, but someone with JS + a niche subset. Examples include JavaScript + Node.js / + React Redux / + Angular / + Python, and so-on. In particularly high demand are people with JavaScript + AWS or experience and understand around Cloud-based programs, as-well-as JavaScript capabilities as they relate to quantitative development.
