Own the B2B research agenda end-to-end: design and run interview-heavy studies with enterprise buyers, IT administrators, and shared-domain users to surface non-conversion blockers, admin reactions to the 4.0 Credit system, and feature requirements (collaboration, integrations) that justify enterprise adoption — then translate findings directly into prioritized product requirements for the PM team. Build and sustain a dedicated B2B research panel: source, recruit, and maintain an ongoing network of enterprise decision-makers and IT admins to support a continuous, low-friction research cadence rather than one-off studies. Establish the monthly Insights Cadence: set the research calendar based on the highest-priority product and growth questions across B2B and consumer monetization; deliver structured, decision-ready reports to PM, Growth, and leadership stakeholders on a recurring basis — benchmarking methodology and output quality against research practices at leading SaaS companies (e.g. Figma, Notion, Atlassian); identifying gaps and drive continuous improvements in user research. Partner with the Growth and Monetization team on consumer research: design and execute pricing and willingness-to-pay studies, identify friction points in the consumer-to-team upgrade funnel, and provide the qualitative context that backend data alone cannot supply. Use AI to accelerate synthesis and scale output: apply LLMs, automated tagging, and scripting to compress the time from raw data to insight — freeing capacity for higher-judgment work like moderation, cross-functional alignment, and strategic framing.       Skills, qualifications and experience we look for 3-5 years of mixed-methods user research experience with at least 3 years dedicated to B2B SaaS, enterprise software, or productivity tools; must have independently owned studies from recruitment through synthesis to stakeholder delivery — not supported execution. Proven B2B panel development: demonstrated track record of sourcing and maintaining an ongoing research network of enterprise buyers, IT administrators, or technical decision-makers (not one-off participant recruitment). Deep qualitative expertise in interview-heavy methods: contextual inquiry, field research, executive moderation, and usability testing; must be capable of moderating C-suite or IT-admin sessions
