We are seeking an experienced freelancer to design and develop a comprehensive macroeconomic dashboard to support professional macro and FX analysis. This dashboard will track and present key economic indicators across major economies, including the United States, Australia, New Zealand, Canada, Eurozone, United Kingdom, Japan, and Switzerland.
Core indicators will include inflation metrics, GDP and GDP components, central bank interest rates, 2-year government bond yields, and economic data surprise indices. The objective is to create a clean, intuitive, and highly functional dashboard that enables efficient monitoring of macroeconomic trends, relative country performance, and directional macro themes.
The dashboard must include a dedicated trend analysis section where key macroeconomic indicators can be visualized as time-series line charts. This section should allow clear monitoring of directional trends over time.
At minimum, this should include line charts for: • Inflation (CPI and/or Core CPI) • GDP (QoQ) • Central bank policy interest rates • 2-year government bond yields
The trend section should: • Display historical time series with clean, professional formatting • Allow country selection (or comparison between multiple countries) • Clearly show directional trends, turning points, and relative positioning • Automatically update as new data becomes available
The ideal candidate will have a strong background in macroeconomics, finance, and data visualization, with proven experience building professional dashboards using Excel, Power BI, Tableau, Python, or similar tools. Experience sourcing, structuring, and maintaining economic datasets from reliable providers such as FRED, central banks, statistical agencies, OECD, or commercial providers is highly desirable. The dashboard should be designed for reliability, clarity, and easy ongoing updates.
Key responsibilities include designing the dashboard architecture, sourcing and integrating economic data, structuring the backend data framework, building clear and professional visualizations, and ensuring the system can be efficiently updated as new economic data is released.
Screening Questions (required): 1. Briefly explain how you would approach designing and building this macroeconomic dashboard. What tools and structure would you use? 2. What data sources would you use to obtain reliable macroeconomic data for the listed countries? 3. How would you structure the data and dashboard to allow efficient ongoing updates? 4. Which platform would you recommend for this project (Excel, Power BI, Tableau, Python, or hybrid), and why? 5. Please provide examples of similar financial, economic, or macro dashboards you have built.
