BlackRock

For the past two years, I have been contracted with Aladdin WealthTech, a finTech company within BlackRock. I am a Senior UI Designer. My role oversees optimizing and maintaining our design systems while also designing products that help financial advisors build strategic plans and portfolios for their clients.

I work with teams across engineering, product, and research that are spread across the United States, London, and India. One of my favorite aspects of this position is the cross-functional collaboration. This communication plays a such a huge role in the success of our design system and products.

The projects I work on are not fully public facing. Below is a snapshot and quick description. To see the full project, please email me at kimberlysmunn@gmail.com to receive a password.

Design Systems

Aladdin WealthTech utilizes two different design systems that service two product platforms. Each requiring different branding needs. I have been involved in the migration and expansion of our design systems from sketch to Figma. I have also collaborated with my team on establishing our governance processes.

Investment Quality

The Investment Quality tool provides advisors with information regarding the health of their funds across portfolios so they are able to make informed decisions to take action. I was brought on during the wire-framing process to help develop the look and feel of this tool through Ul. I also had the pleasure of being involved in user testing during development.
