Software engineer - EQx (Switzerland)

I work with the Foundation for Value Creation, the Swiss foundation that publishes the Elite Quality Index under the academic leadership of three University of St. Gallen institutes. It is a political-economy index, published since 2020, ranking 151 countries by how far each country's elites create value for society rather than extract it. I took over its digital products: the public index site and the private console alongside it.

  • End-to-end ownership of the user experience across both products.
  • Direct contact with the index directors, designers and the people behind the rating model.
  • Product-level prioritisation: deciding what ships for each client milestone.
  • Remote work with an international team on an applied research project.
