Only W2 candidates are eligible for this position. Third-party or C2C candidates will not be considered.
Day to Day Responsibilities
  • Build and maintain research operations infrastructure, including standard operating procedures, recruitment templates, screeners, consent language, intake workflows, scheduling guidance, and reusable study resources.
  • Coordinate customer access so interview requests are well-planned, appropriately routed, and not duplicative or conflicting across teams.
  • Manage research vendors, procurement workflows, contracts, purchase orders, budget tracking, and recurring vendor performance follow-ups.
  • Administer research tools and platforms such as UserTesting, UserZoom, and VoxPopMe, including access, usage guidance, renewals, and optimization opportunities.
  • Partner with Privacy, Legal, Compliance, Procurement, and cross-functional teams to support consent, safe data handling, adverse-event reporting, documentation, and retention expectations.
  • Identify practical ways to use AI-enabled workflows and automation to improve research speed and consistency without compromising rigor, privacy, or compliance.

What makes you successful:
  • You have 2-5+ years of experience in Research Operations, Design Operations, Product Operations, research program management, or a related operations role supporting User Research, UX Design, or Product teams.
  • You are a systems thinker who can turn ambiguous, high-friction workflows into clear, scalable, and well-documented operating models.
  • You have hands-on experience with research platforms such as UserTesting.com, UserZoom, Great Question, VoxPopMe, or similar tools.
  • You bring strong project-management discipline, including ownership of timelines, dependencies, handoffs, budgets, documentation, and follow-through across multiple concurrent workstreams.
  • You understand the end-to-end research lifecycle well enough to anticipate operational needs for interviews, usability testing, concept evaluation, surveys, customer trials, and mixed-method studies.
  • You are comfortable working in a regulated or privacy-sensitive environment and can collaborate effectively with Legal, Privacy, Compliance, Procurement, and business stakeholders.
  • You are exceptionally organized and detail-oriented, especially with customer data, consent records, incentives, vendor deliverables, tool permissions, and research documentation.
  • You communicate clearly with researchers and non-researchers by creating templates, playbooks, and guidance that make complex processes easier to follow.
  • You are curious about AI, automation, and emerging research tools, and you know how to balance speed with human judgment, research quality, and compliance review.

Work related years of experience
