You will:

  • Advocate research findings to diverse audiences through written reports, infographics, zoom conferences, and in-person presentations
  • Engage with stakeholders to identify problems, test ideas, and refine workflows
  • Be a leading voice and contributor in the evolution of our research design and strategies
  • Stay current with UX best practices and share findings with the team and community


You have:
  • 3+ years of professional experience in Human-computer Interactions, Anthropology, Human Factors, Psychology, Sociology, or a related field
  • Proven successful experience integrating UX research into a product's design lifecycle
  • Experience conducting field research such as (but not limited to) usability studies, contextual inquiry, surveys, and interviews
  • Experience conducting product research across a variety of industries and/or verticals
  • Strong understanding of the advantages and limitations of various different research methods and strategies
  • A deep knowledge of when and how to apply research strategies
  • An excellent communicator who is able to articulate complex research findings to uninitiated stakeholders in order to drive product success
  • A thoughtful and critical mind that challenges the status quo and strives for continuous improvement


Bonus skills:
  • Experience working with highly collaborative, cross-functional teams
  • Ability to present research findings in engaging and compelling ways
