Byhiras is a start-up and a fund management product with clients like the Greater Manchester Pension Fund. It is a platform that if you were a fund manager you could use to track how your investments were fairing. The platform does so by helping the fund manager understand where their investments were making money – in which geographies, currencies, seasonality, commodities or instruments and so on. And where they weren’t. This way the fund manager could observe trends, build up investing patterns and use only the ones that were working for them. Amongst other things the platform also allows fund managers to see the costs that they were paying to external suppliers for functions the fund did not have in-house, and how these costs compared to what the rest of the industry was paying.

Stakeholder management, research, design and developer collaboration:
• I worked with the founder, business analyst and quantitative analyst to understand the requirements, as well as the wider product roadmap
• These stakeholders served as my client and product managers, SMEs and user representatives. I conducted qualitative research by interviewing them and workshopped solutions with them
• I designed the prototypes and worked with the wider engineering team to run technical feasibility on them and iterated the designs as necessary
• Produced the necessary UI designs and worked with developers to implement them
