The Opportunity:
We're seeking a Senior UX Researcher to lead end-to-end research that shapes product strategy, informs design decisions, and deepens our understanding of user needs across multiple product lines. In this role, you'll drive mixed-methods research from foundational discovery to rapid, iterative testing-to uncover motivations, pain points, and opportunities that guide measurable product and business outcomes.
You'll also play a key role in strengthening research operations by building scalable systems, improving documentation, and evolving a robust research repository that elevates insight quality and accessibility across the organization. As a cross-functional partner, you'll work closely with Product, Design, Engineering, and Marketing to embed user empathy into strategy, influence roadmaps, and cultivate a culture centered on continuous learning and evidence-based decision-making.

โ€ข Design studies that address key product risks - value, usability, feasibility, and viability
โ€ข Translate findings into clear, actionable insights that guide strategic decisions and measurable outcomes.
โ€ข Balance deep research with lean, iterative testing to support product agility and continuous learning.
2. Strengthen Research Operations
โ€ข Maintain and enhance the participant panel, consent workflows, and research documentation systems.
โ€ข Develop reusable research frameworks, templates, and toolkits to make research more efficient and consistent.
โ€ข Evolve a research repository that promotes knowledge sharing and long-term organizational learning.
โ€ข Establish standards for insight tagging, storage, and discoverability to reduce duplication and scale research impact.
3. Cross-Functional Collaboration & Communication
โ€ข Partner with Product, Design, Engineering, and Marketing to define user-centered goals and success metrics.
โ€ข Integrate research insights into product strategy and roadmap prioritization.
โ€ข Present insights clearly to executive and cross-functional audiences, influencing both product and business direction.
โ€ข Champion user empathy and customer-centric culture across the organization.
What you bring to the role:
  • Bachelor's or Master's degree in Human-Computer Interaction (HCI), Psychology, Anthropology, or a related field.
  • 5+ years of UX or product research experience, ideally in consumer tech, wearable, or health/wellness domains.
  • Proven success conducting end-to-end research from discovery through validation and post-launch evaluation.
  • Expertise in mixed methods research (interviews, usability testing, surveys, diary studies, fieldwork).
  • Strong synthesis, storytelling, and stakeholder communication skills.
  • Experience supporting beta programs in agile environments.

Preferred Skills:
  • Proficiency with tools like UserTesting, Dovetail, Figma, Quantilope, or similar research/repository platforms.
