What is a part-time user researcher?

A part-time user researcher is a professional who studies how people use products or services, typically working fewer hours than a full-time position. They gather insights through interviews, surveys, usability tests, and observations to help companies improve their products and user experiences. Part-time user researchers often collaborate with design, product, and development teams, but have flexible schedules or reduced workloads compared to full-time roles. This job is ideal for those seeking work-life balance or supplementing other commitments while contributing valuable research expertise.

How does a part-time user researcher typically collaborate with product and design teams?

Part-time user researchers often work closely with product managers and designers to prioritize research initiatives and communicate user insights. Despite working fewer hours, they are expected to coordinate key research activities, such as usability testing or user interviews, within tight project timelines. Effective collaboration usually involves regular check-ins, sharing findings in accessible formats, and being proactive in aligning research goals with team objectives. This collaborative approach ensures user feedback is integrated into product decisions, even when the researcher is not present full-time.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a part-time user researcher, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Part Time User Researcher, you need a solid understanding of research methodologies, data analysis, and user-centered design, often supported by a degree in psychology, HCI, or a related field. Familiarity with tools like UserTesting, Optimal Workshop, and analytics platforms, as well as experience in conducting interviews and usability tests, is typically required. Strong communication, adaptability, and empathy help you connect with participants and collaborate effectively with design and product teams. These skills enable you to generate actionable insights that directly improve user experience and product success.

How much do part time user researchers get paid?

Part-time user researchers typically earn between $20 and $50 per hour, depending on experience, location, and the complexity of projects. Compensation can vary based on whether they work freelance or for a company, and some roles may include flexible schedules or remote work options.

Is part time user research still in demand?

Part time user research roles remain in demand as companies prioritize understanding user needs to improve products and services. These positions often require skills in usability testing, data analysis, and familiarity with research tools, making them valuable in various industries including tech and e-commerce.

Through Maven Enterprise, the company partners with more than 2,300 employers and health plans to provide end-to-end women's and family health programs spanning fertility and family building, maternity and newborn care, parenting and pediatrics, and menopause and midlife — improving clinical outcomes, reducing healthcare costs, and expanding equitable access to high-quality care at scale.

Learn more at mavenclinic.com

An award-winning culture working towards an important mission – Maven Clinic is a recipient of over 30 workplace and innovation awards, including:

  • TIME 100 Most Influential Companies (2023, 2026)
  • Fortune Change the World (2024)
  • CNBC Disruptor 50 List (2022, 2023, 2024)
  • Fortune Best Workplaces for Millennials (2024)
  • Fortune Best Workplaces in Health Care (2024)
  • Fast Company Most Innovative Companies (2020, 2023)
  • Fortune Best Workplaces NY (2020, 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024)

About the Role:

Maven is building a new direct-to-consumer business, and we're making decisions every week that should be informed by real user insight: how women think about GLP-1 care, what makes a virtual clinic feel trustworthy, where our funnel loses people and why. We are looking for a part-time user researcher to own research end to end for our consumer team.

This is a hands-on contract role for someone who can operate independently: you'll scope studies with product and design, recruit participants, run the research - either in-house or using a third party platform, and bring back insights the team actually uses. You'll also help us level up, shaping our tooling and research process as the team grows.

This is a part-time contract engagement of approximately 10-20 hours per week, for an initial 6-month term with intent to extend or expand for the right person. The role is fully remote and open to candidates anywhere in the US.

What You'll Do:

  • Partner with product and design to identify the questions worth answering and scope research that answers them
  • Own the full study lifecycle: research plans, participant recruiting, moderation, analysis, and synthesis
  • Run both qualitative and quantitative work, from user interviews and usability sessions to surveys, choosing the right method for each question
  • Share insights in ways that travel: crisp readouts to the working team and digestible takeaways for the broader org
  • Help define our research tooling and process, recommending what we should adopt, drop, or change

What You'll Bring:

  • 5+ years of user research experience, including consumer products
  • True mixed-methods range: you've designed and fielded surveys with sound methodology and you're a skilled interviewer and moderator; you're familiar with AI-augmented methods and tools.
  • A track record of running research end to end with minimal oversight, ideally as a contractor, consultant, or solo researcher
  • Strong synthesis and communication: you turn messy data into clear, decision-ready insights
  • Comfort in a fast-moving environment where research has to keep pace with weekly ship cycles
  • Experience in healthcare, tele-health, or another trust-sensitive consumer space is a plus
  • Experience researching subscription products or conversion funnels is a plus
  • Experience standing up research practices or tooling at an early-stage team is a plus

The hourly rate for this role is $90 - $120 per hour. Individual pay decisions are based on qualifications, experience, and skillset. This is a 1099 contract position and is not eligible for Maven employee benefits.

This role requires active work authorization in the US.

Maven embraces a flexible and inclusive work environment. This role is open to candidate in: AZ, DC, DE, FL, GA, HI, IL, KS, MA, MD, ME, MI, MN, MO, NC, NJ, NM, NV, NY, OH, OR, PA, SC, TN, TX, VA, VT, and WI. Maven is committed to supporting remote team members with the tools and collaborative culture needed to thrive regardless of location. This policy reflects our belief that great work can happen anywhere and that flexibility enables our team to do their best work.

At Maven we believe that a diverse set of backgrounds and experiences enrich our teams and allow us to achieve above and beyond our goals. If you do not have experience in all of the areas detailed above, we hope that you will share your unique background with us in your application and how it can be additive to our teams.

Benefits That Work For You

Our benefits are designed to support your health, well-being and career development, helping you thrive both personally and professionally. We remain focused on providing a competitive benefits package for our employees. On top of standards such as employer-covered health, dental, and insurance plan options, we offer an inclusive approach to benefits:

  • Maven for Mavens: access to the full platform and specialists, including care for mental health, reproductive health, family planning and pediatrics.
  • Whole-self care through wellness partnerships
  • Hybrid work, in office meals, and work together days
  • 16 weeks 100% paid parental leave and new parent stipend (for Mavens who've been with us for 1 year+)
  • Annual professional development stipend and access to a personal career coach through Maven for Mavens
  • 401K matching for US-based employees, with immediate vesting

These benefits are applicable to Maven Clinic Co., US-based, full-time employees only. 1099/Contract Providers are ineligible for these benefits.
