Description:
Remote role. Must be based in the Denver, CO area to accommodate the 1–2 week per quarter onsite requirement in Greenwood Village
We are seeking a seasoned, dedicated UX Researcher who thrives at the intersection of human behavior and product strategy. This is a pure research and strategy role—ideal for a specialist who is passionate about uncovering deep user insights and has no desire to pivot into UI/UX design.
You will act as a strategic partner to our product teams, functioning with a high degree of autonomy to lead end-to-end research initiatives. Beyond execution, you will serve as a UX Evangelist, teaching stakeholders the value of research and translating complex data into actionable business strategies.
Due to client requirements, applicants must be willing and able to work on a w2 basis. For our w2 consultants, we offer a great benefits package that includes Medical, Dental, and Vision benefits, 401k with company matching, and life insurance.
Rate: $50-60/hr. w2
Responsibilities:
- End-to-End Research: Lead the planning, execution, and analysis of multi-method research studies, including usability testing, surveys, and in-depth interviews.
- Strategic Influence: Translate research findings into high-level strategy and present insights to stakeholders at all levels of the organization.
- Evangelism: Actively promote a research-first culture, educating cross-functional partners on methodologies and the ROI of user insights.
- Mixed Methods: Utilize both qualitative and quantitative data to provide a holistic view of the user experience for client-facing products.
- Autonomy: Manage project timelines, recruitment, and stakeholder expectations independently with minimal supervision.
Experience Requirements:
- Experience: 5+ years of experience as a Dedicated UX Researcher. (Candidates with a "Generalist" or "UX Designer" background will not be considered)
- Methodology: Expert proficiency in usability testing, survey design, and interviewing techniques.
- Client-Facing Product Focus: Proven track record of conducting research for external-facing, consumer, or B2B products.
- Soft Skills: Exceptional communication and presentation skills; ability to manage complex stakeholder personalities and "sell" the value of research.
- Organizational Mastery: Strong time-management skills with the ability to manage multiple workstreams simultaneously.
Preferred Qualifications
- Consulting Background: Experience working within a top-tier consultancy (e.g., Slalom, McKinsey, etc.) is a significant plus.
- In-Person Testing: Experience conducting in-person interviews or lab-based usability testing.
Education Requirements:
- Bachelor's degree in graphic design or a computer-related field, or equivalent experience.
Submission Requirements (Non-Negotiable)
- Portfolio: A link to a true website portfolio is required. We cannot accept Word documents or PDF portfolios. Your portfolio must demonstrate clear research case studies, methodologies used, and the business impact of your findings.
W2 employees of Eliassen Group who are regularly scheduled to work 30 or more hours per week are eligible for the following benefits: medical (choice of 3 plans), dental, vision, pre-tax accounts, other voluntary benefits including life and disability insurance, 401(k) with match, and sick time if required by law in the worked-in state/locality.
