What they’ll do - Coordinate research activities such as recruiting, scheduling, participant communications, consent, incentives, session setup, recording, transcription, file organization, and study closeout. - Review existing research and other evidence across tools and repositories, identify what’s useful or missing, and share concise findings and implications. - Support research sessions through preparation, note-taking, observation, probing, tagging, synthesis, and clear reporting. - Manage several well-scoped tasks or workstreams at once, making priorities and capacity visible. - Keep useful learning from projects in reusable guides, templates, checklists, prompts, repository entries, or process improvements. - Explore and document new tools and workflows, including AI-assisted approaches, with appropriate care for output quality and risks. What we’re looking for - Proactive, concise communication: shares progress, next steps, blockers, and questions without needing to be chased. - A collaborative, low-ego approach; dependable ownership; and a willingness to support both visible and behind-the-scenes work. - Strong organization, attention to detail, and reliable follow-through. - Comfort with desk research, reviewing evidence, and turning findings into useful summaries rather than simply sharing links. - Curiosity and confidence learning tools such as Dovetail, Figma, Miro, Excel, Teams transcripts, survey tools, and research repositories.
