About The Role:

• User Research: Conduct research to deepen our understanding of our user personas, discover opportunities to solve problems that matter, and propose solutions that will generate value for our customers.
• Prototyping and Testing: Plan and conduct tests to validate the usability and value of your solutions as quickly as possible. Iteratively improve the user experience until we’re confident it will help our customers rapidly and confidently take action.
• Cross-functional collaboration: Collaborate with product managers, engineers, and other stakeholders to refine product strategy and create user-centric solutions to the most important customer problems.

You Are Likely To Succeed If:
