You'll play a critical role in helping your team understand user needs and will drive impact at all stages of product development, ensuring products are useful, usable, and helpful. You will explore user behaviors and motivations by conducting primary research, including: field studies, interviews, diary studies, ethnography, surveys, usability testing, and logs analysis. You will also grow within a supportive UXR community offering mentorship, regular meetups, and exclusive internal tools.

We are building intuitive and helpful experiences that seamlessly integrate into daily life, powered by technologies. In this role, you will advocate for user empathy, empowering teams to develop innovative solutions that fundamentally enhance the user experience in the home.

The Google Home team focuses on hardware, software and services offerings for the home, ranging from thermostats to smart displays. The Home team researches, designs, and develops new technologies and hardware to make users' homes more helpful. Our mission is the helpful home: to create a home that cares for the people inside it and the world around it.

Individual pay is determined by factors including job-related skills, experience, and relevant education or training.
