About the Role

We’re looking for a research-native, customer-facing expert who operates at the intersection of pre-sales consulting and post-sales onboarding. This is not a traditional onboarding role. You’ll act as a trusted advisor to research and insights teams, helping them envision what’s possible before they buy and realize value immediately after they do.

From early discovery calls to hands-on onboarding, you’ll own the full research adoption journey. You’ll combine the mindset of a researcher, the storytelling of a sales engineer, and the execution of an onboarding lead.

What you’ll do

Partner with Account Executives on late-stage deals and strategic opportunities

Lead deep discovery sessions with research, UX, and insights teams

Translate ambiguous research needs into clear solution architectures and use cases

Design and deliver compelling demos, pilots, and proof-of-concepts

Own onboarding for enterprise customers, guiding them from purchase → first value → scaled adoption

Run tailored sessions on:

research design best practices

workflows and implementation

data quality and insights generation

Build repeatable onboarding frameworks for research-led customers

Partner with Customer Success to ensure long-term adoption and expansion

Act as a thought leader for research practices internally and externally

Champion the voice of the research customer across Product, Sales, and Marketing

What you bring

Experience in research (e.g., user research, UX research, market research, behavioral science, social science, analytics, or insights roles - This can be from academia, agencies, consultancies, or in-house teams)

OR experience in a customer-facing SaaS role with strong exposure to research or data-driven customers

Strong communication and facilitation skills — you’re comfortable leading workshops, asking probing questions, and translating complex ideas clearly

A structured, analytical mindset with strong project management skills

Comfort working with data, research outputs, and product usage signals to guide decision-making

Empathy for researchers and an understanding of their challenges, constraints, and success criteria

A collaborative, cross-functional approach — you enjoy working with Sales, Product, and Engineering to improve customer outcomes

PhD or equivalent experience in a research-heavy field (e.g. UX research, behavioral science, social sciences, HCI, data science, etc.)
