Ideal Candidate
You are naturally curious and genuinely enjoy talking to users, whether that's a hospice nurse, a care coordinator, or a clinical admin. You know how to ask the right follow-up questions to eliminate ambiguity, listen for what's not being said, and turn a messy set of interview notes into a clear, actionable set of insights.
You're a highly organized communicator who brings order to complexity, comfortable running a study independently once you have a brief and communicating directly and efficiently in both writing and cross-functional conversations. You care about rigor and clean documentation as much as you care about the story the research tells, and you're curious about using AI to sharpen your research process along the way.
Primary Responsibilities
- Plan and conduct user research: including interviews, contextual inquiry, usability testing, and concept evaluation, using both qualitative and quantitative methods as appropriate.
- Partner with Product Managers and UX Design to scope out research questions, validate assumptions, and determine the right research approach across concurrent team initiatives.
- Help build and maintain reusable templates and formats for research artifacts (briefs, discussion guides, decks, reports) to bring consistency and efficiency to how research is planned, run and shared.
- Synthesize research and existing customer insight into actionable themes and recommendations, maintaining an organized, lightweight repository that Product and Design can reference.
- Communicate findings to cross-functional teams through presentations, written summaries, and working sessions.
- Build and maintain relationships with users/customers, supporting recruiting, scheduling, and easier access to participants over time.
Skill Requirements
- Strong written communication skills and ability to translate research findings and data into structured documentation.
- 1–3 years of experience in a dedicated UX research role, or a research-adjacent role with a strong portfolio.
- Comfort and ability to talk with both non-technical users (e.g., nurses, care coordinators) and technical/admin users with equal ease.
- Preferred Experience: Prior exposure to healthcare or another regulated/compliance-sensitive industry (e.g., fintech, gov’t).
- Experience with AI tools and an understanding of AI-assisted research tools (e.g., transcript analysis, synthesis aids) and research repositories/tools.
Other Requirements
- Ability to work 100% remote.
- Ability to travel for internal company summits (twice annually) and product summits (twice annually).
Benefits
- 100% Remote Environment
- Medical, Dental, Vision, Accidental
- Company paid: Short Term Disability, Long Term Disability and Life Insurance
- 401k Match after 1 year of tenure (4%)
- 3 weeks of PTO
- Closed for 15 Holidays
- 5 Wellness Days
Applications accepted until November 30, 2026 or until position is filled.

Tips for Your Remote UX Researcher Job Search
Show async research skills in your portfolio
Remote ux researcher roles go to candidates who prove they can run studies, synthesize findings, and communicate insights without a room full of stakeholders. Include written research reports, unmoderated study designs, and Dovetail or Notion-based synthesis artifacts alongside your slide decks.
Apply early to remote roles that fit
Migrate Mate lists remote ux researcher openings from across the U.S. in one place, so you can find roles that match your skills and apply directly without sifting through listings mixed with on-site requirements.
Target companies built around remote product teams
Remote-first SaaS companies and distributed fintech or healthcare platforms hire ux researchers remotely as a default, not an exception. Check whether a company's product and engineering teams are fully distributed before you apply, because that predicts how well set up they are to onboard and support a remote researcher.
Demonstrate written communication in your application
Remote research teams evaluate how clearly you write before they ever meet you. A concise cover note that frames a past research problem, your method, and the outcome you drove signals exactly the written synthesis skill remote ux roles require day to day.
Remote UX Researcher Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get a remote ux researcher job?
Target companies with fully distributed product teams, where remote ux researchers are the norm rather than the exception. Remote employers screen for strong async communication, the ability to run unmoderated studies independently, and clear written synthesis of findings. A portfolio that shows end-to-end research process, not just outputs, gives you a concrete edge over candidates who list tools without showing thinking.
Which companies hire remote ux researchers?
Remote ux researcher roles are posted by Deckers Brands, Renaissance Learning, and Rula and others right now, based on current remote listings on Migrate Mate as of September 2026. Remote-first SaaS companies, fintech platforms, and distributed healthcare technology teams tend to post the most consistent volume of remote ux researcher openings.
Can you get a remote ux researcher job with no experience?
Yes, but remote entry-level ux researcher roles are harder to land because employers expect you to work independently from day one without in-person mentorship. Early career candidates do best targeting smaller remote-first startups or tech companies with structured onboarding. A portfolio showing self-directed projects, volunteer usability studies, or course capstones demonstrates you can own research without hand-holding.
Do you need a degree for remote ux researcher jobs?
Not always. Remote employers weigh portfolio quality, demonstrated research skills, and the ability to communicate findings in writing far more heavily than a specific degree field. A background in psychology, human-computer interaction, or design helps, but candidates who show rigorous mixed-methods work and clear synthesis in their portfolio compete effectively regardless of what their diploma says.
Which industries hire the most remote ux researchers?
Most remote ux researcher openings sit in Technology & Software, Retail, and Human Resources, per current remote listings on Migrate Mate as of September 2026. Those sectors run large distributed product teams that rely on continuous research to ship features across a global user base without co-located design sprints.
