As a UX researcher in the Augmented Reality space, you'll have the opportunity to partner directly with a single, tightly integrated pod with significant freedom to operate with the time, people and space necessary for conceiving, building and launching brand new products. Research is paramount to this organization's success - formative research is needed to identify the right latent needs or problems in the world to tackle with product solutions, iterative design research is needed to mold early product ideas into testable prototypes, and creative evaluative research is needed to improve and prepare those products for market.

* Collaborate closely with researchers, designers, PMs & engineers to identify, define and deliver meaningful products into the world
* Collaboratively and independently develop and execute research roadmaps

We are a team in charge of driving consistent UX KPI measurement programs. This means using strong statistical/survey rigor + experience working with product teams to come up with guidance we can apply across the org. Guidance will be written up and communicated via a Wiki (for researchers and XFN).

Candidate will get to apply their expertise to wide variety of teams driving a lot of impact, high visibility, and aligning a very disparate set of measurement workstreams. This will drive a strategy for launch readiness which will help improve the quality of all of our HW devices (and greatly influence the direction of our teams for years to come).
