We’re looking for an experienced, Senior UX Researcher to join our UX Research Team and help us explore, understand and reinvent everything from the way money works to a bunch of even more ambitious things we can’t talk about yet. We’re looking for an inquisitive, independent explorer who believes in a tomorrow where cryptocurrency spreads wealth, inclusively and enables new forms of creativity.

UX research is fundamental in helping us understand how we can serve our clients needs and delight them along the way. By joining our team you will help to discover and define those needs and work cross-functionally to help teams to meet and exceed them.
We’re looking for a Senior UX Researcher who is resolute about making sure their research makes a positive impact. A researcher who is experienced, well-rounded, detailed, passionate and flexible.
The UX Research Team is a small, in-demand team within a fast-paced company, so the ideal candidate will need to be comfortable to hit the ground running and be flexible to the team – and the business’s – needs.

Act as the voice of our clients and make sure that we’re constantly solving real problems for them while delivering high quality, delightful experiences
Support Krakenites across multiple teams as a research partner, identifying where research can be most helpful, most impactful and where research is not the appropriate response to a problem
Support Krakenites in self-serving research to the point that they can conduct their own lightweight evaluative research while educating peers in research methodologies and helping to evangelize across the company
Skills you should HODL
Minimum of 8 years of experience in lead UX Research roles, with a proven track record of delivering impactful research outcomes
Extensive experience in an array of research methodologies
Excellent communication, presentation and storytelling skills, with the ability to effectively convey research findings to diverse audiences
