  • Deliver a diverse range of generative and evaluative research projects from end to end, expertly leveraging a variety of qualitative and quantitative research methods
  • Establish and develop relationships with cross-functional product squad members (ie. Product Designers, PMs, Eng) and leaders, while growing a culture where product decisions are deeply rooted in consumer needs.
  • Collaborate effectively with the CX, Data Analytics, and Market research teams, leveraging data from various organizational sources to inform research initiatives.
  • Design, craft, and and facilitate workshops and/or labs, with internal and external participants
  • Scale UX research by upskilling and empowering designers to perform research through coaching of UXR methodology.
  • Partner with other UXRs to co-create the research practice (ie. culture, operations, impact), through building new pathways, systems, and ways of working.
  • Demonstrate ethical considerations in user research. Uphold data privacy and user rights throughout the research process.

And a little bit of…

  • Flexing your skills and previous experiences from other industries and/or roles to not only innovate our product, but also how we do research
  • Learning new skills and engage in thought leadership, inside and outside of the organization
  • Participate in conferences, courses, and activities to enhance skills

  • Experience with a broad set of quantitative research and analysis methods, including task performance-based analysis, multivariate testing, and various statistical data analysis approaches (cluster, conjoint, factor, etc)
  • Experience building, facilitating, and leveraging remote/in person workshops for the purposes of strategic alignment, research, and/or ideation.
  • Proven ability to strategically identify, scope, and prioritize impactful research projects alongside cross-functional stakeholders and leaders
