About the Role

We are seeking an experienced User Research Lead to lead research initiatives that shape product strategy and user experience across our AI-enabled ecosystem. You will design and execute research that uncovers user needs, evaluates usability, and identifies growth opportunities—working closely with R&D, product marketing, data, and engineering teams in a lean startup environment.

What You Will Do

  • Lead end-to-end research projects (generative, evaluative, usability, competitive benchmarking) across the product lifecycle.
  • Collaborate with product managers, engineers, and designers to integrate research insights into product roadmaps and AI-driven features.
  • Translate complex findings into clear, actionable recommendations for leadership and cross-functional teams.
  • Build scalable research frameworks to support fast iteration cycles in a startup environment.
  • Apply both qualitative and quantitative methods (interviews, surveys, analytics, diary studies, A/B testing).
  • Ensure products are localized and culturally relevant, with a focus on global and Chinese-speaking markets.
  • Mentor junior researchers and help establish a research operations playbook for consistency and efficiency.

Minimum Qualifications

  • 5+ years of experience in user research, UX research, or customer insights, preferably in technology / AI products.
  • Strong expertise in both qualitative and quantitative methods, including survey design, data analysis, and experiment design.
  • Ability to work independently and manage multiple projects simultaneously.
  • Proficient in English with the ability to conduct research and present findings in both languages.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience with tools such as UserTesting, Miro, Figma, or AI-driven research platforms is a plus.
  • Proven track record in startup or high-growth environments, comfortable with ambiguity and rapid pivots.
  • Exceptional communication skills — able to influence stakeholders at all levels.
