Maven is building a new direct-to-consumer business, and we're making decisions every week that should be informed by real user insight: how women think about GLP-1 care, what makes a virtual clinic feel trustworthy, where our funnel loses people and why. We are looking for a part-time user researcher to own research end to end for our consumer team.

This is a hands-on contract role for someone who can operate independently: you'll scope studies with product and design, recruit participants, run the research - either in-house or using a third party platform, and bring back insights the team actually uses. You'll also help us level up, shaping our tooling and research process as the team grows.

This is a part-time contract engagement of approximately 10-20 hours per week, for an initial 6-month term with intent to extend or expand for the right person. The role is fully remote and open to candidates anywhere in the US.

• A track record of running research end to end with minimal oversight, ideally as a contractor, consultant, or solo researcher

• Strong synthesis and communication: you turn
