User Experience

Remote - Quebec, Canada

At HubSpot our core value is to Solve for the Customer. The UX team lives this everyday as we strive to better understand, serve, and delight our customers. We help more than 125,000 small and medium-sized businesses grow their businesses everyday!

If you’re a UX Research Principal interested in working in a fast-paced SaaS tech environment and excited to drive forward strategic research projects with demonstrated impact - we’d love to hear from you.

What’s UX Research like at HubSpot?

  • You will be part of a community of 40+ researchers from a Head of Research, Directors, and other peers.
  • You will be empowered to show up as your authentic self and be based where you can do your best work: at home, in the office, or any mix of both.

In this role you’ll get to:

  • Inform and execute against UX research roadmaps for a core product and experience, addressing aspects of software.
  • Provide thought leadership to partners and decision makers at all levels of the organization, effectively communicating durable insights through writing, presentations, and conversations to build consensus and persuade action based on findings.
  • Contribute to the creation of customer experience tools and frameworks (archetypes, journey maps, UX benchmarks).
  • Collaborate with other researchers across Hubspot to raise the bar for research and align on best practices.

We are looking for:

  • Emotional resilience and self-organization - since we work in fast-paced environments where you can pave the way through ambiguity.
  • Deep knowledge of mixed research methods and the ability to apply research methods appropriate to the questions at hand and adapt methods as needed to align organization and product needs.
  • Ability to work with and influence partners to explore ambiguous spaces and create meaningful and usable solutions.
  • Business expertise: ability to understand business drivers and provide research consultation.
  • Entrepreneurial and curious mindset, strong communication and interpersonal skills.
  • Strong facilitation skills - Hubspot’s culture gives us the opportunity to work with small autonomous teams so there is a need of alignment both async and through group meetings.
