About the role

This role will be part of a small, dedicated UX Research team. You will get a lot of variety and see a lot of impact. We cover 25 sports and have products for web, mobile, and connected TV. This is an opportunity to investigate a wide range of users in multiple verticals using a varied set of methodologies and to do research that directly impacts users and products and results in real, tangible changes. You will perform both generative and evaluative research. Studies will be both moderated and unmoderated, as appropriate. You will help determine what is appropriate. Generative studies may include interviews for persona and journey map development, longitudinal diary studies, card sorts, tree tests, etc. Evaluative studies may include baseline studies of existing products and iterative validation of new and improving products. Eventually, you may be conducting onsite contextual inquiries at locations ranging from dirt race tracks to cheer competitions. We will probably co-invent some hybrid solutions to get at tricky questions. All research source material and reports will live in a tagged repository, where an actively managed taxonomy of tags will help keep insights and artifacts persistently available and relevant. You will own the taxonomy. On the quantitative side, you will help analyze behavioral analytics, design and interpret surveys, and interpret and present quantitative results from unmoderated usability studies. You will be mentored and you will be expected to mentor more junior researchers.
