Lead end-to-end research studies using mixed methods to inform product decisions, drive user insights, and communicate findings to cross-functional teams.
At Favor, we’re doing more than providing consumers with the best on-demand delivery experience. We’re building a community of Runners who can work how they want, when they want. And we’re doing all this while growing local businesses and partnering with Texas’ most beloved grocer, H-E-B. We put people in the center of everything we do. Our Product team advocates for our diverse users and our business, finding creative ways to serve them both.
We’re looking for a mixed-methods Senior UX Researcher with strong quantitative research skills. This role will work within a user-centered product organization to lead high-impact research and drive user insights that have a positive impact on the lives of customers, Runners, merchants, and businesses.
What you'll do:
- Plan and execute end-to-end research studies using a variety of methods (user interviews, quantitative surveys, sentiment measurement, MaxDiff, PCA/conjoint), and other research methods to gather insights into user behavior, needs, and preferences within the delivery services domain.
- Collaborate closely with cross-functional teams (including product managers, designers, engineers, marketers, and data analysts) to identify research objectives, design research plans, and develop user-centric solutions.
- Create and maintain research artifacts such as research briefs, discussion guides, usability test scripts, and research reports; ensure findings are effectively communicated and documented.
- Advocate for the user by actively participating in design reviews, brainstorming sessions, design sprints, and other collaborative activities; champion user-centric insights throughout the organization.
- Present results regularly to cross-team creative peers, engineers, and key stakeholders.
Skills you have:
- A degree in the social/behavioral sciences, human-computer interaction (HCI) or a related discipline or comparable formal training, certification, or work experience.
- 5+ years of relevant UX research experience.
- High-level knowledge of qualitative and quantitative research methods; excellent analytical skills with the ability to synthesize complex data and draw meaningful insights.
Who you are:
- Strong understanding of user-centric design principles and methodologies with a demonstrated ability to translate research findings into actionable recommendations.
- Ability to lead teams through a wide range of complex and ambiguous research and user-centered design tasks.
- Strong communication and presentation skills with the ability to effectively convey research findings and recommendations to diverse stakeholders.
- Proven ability to work collaboratively in a cross-functional team environment and foster a user-centric design culture.
