Functional Analyst

KB Tech Limited, part of the European Energy Exchange (EEX) Group, provides mission-critical trading infrastructure for energy commodities and financial markets globally. With over 20 years of experience and a lean, start-up mentality, we are a collaborative team of 28 staff looking for self-driven individuals to join our design and decision-making processes.

The Role: Solution Designer

We are seeking an experienced Solution Designer to own the translation of client requirements into clear, implementable solutions. You will take early-stage, often "rough" concepts and shape them into fully defined functional solutions, including user flows, high-fidelity UI designs, and comprehensive requirements that development and testing teams can deliver against.

Key Responsibilities

• Client Engagement: Gather and challenge requirements from clients and Product Management to ensure feasibility and alignment with platform capabilities.
• Solution Design: Translate business needs into end-to-end functional designs, defining system behavior, edge cases, and data interactions using bespoke artifacts where needed.
• UX/UI Design: Create user flows and produce high-fidelity UI designs that align with existing patterns while ensuring usability in complex, data-driven interfaces.
• Delivery Readiness: Collaborate with developers and testers to refine requirements, support estimation, and ensure features are "ready" for development.
• Requirement Management: Manage feedback cycles and incorporate technical feedback through to formal sign-off.

Skills & Experience

• Strong experience in Functional/Business Analysis or Solution Design roles.
• Proven ability to turn ambiguous or incomplete ideas into actionable functional designs.
• Proficiency with Azure DevOps, Jira, or similar delivery and backlog tools.
• Desirable: Practical experience in UX/UI (high-fidelity mock-ups, design systems).
• Desirable: Hands-on experience with Energy or Commodity trading platforms.
• A mindset that balances user experience, functional correctness, and delivery practicality.
