Job Description

Your environment

As a UX Researcher, you’ll conduct research across our product areas,
exploring AI-powered features to build the next generation of ITSM

Your work will span discovery and validation, helping teams decide

Your job

  • Planning and execution of qualitative and quantitative research
    end-to-end, helping product teams understand user behaviors,

  • Selection and application of appropriate research methods for each
    question; including interviews, usability tests, surveys, and other
    qualitative and quantitative methods
  • Collaboration with Product Managers and Designers throughout Generative
    and Evaluative research activities, from framing research questions
    to turning findings into decisions
  • Recruitment of participants, moderation of sessions, and analysis
    of data into clear, actionable findings
  • Presentation of research findings clearly to Product Managers,
    UX Designers, and Engineering teams
  • Maintenance of research documentation and contribution to the
    shared research repository
  • Contribution to ResearchOps; including participant recruitment

    such as scripts and consent forms
  • Support for lightweight research run by others (PMs, Designers)
    where appropriate, with the right guidance and guardrails
