Senior Product Researcher / Senior UX Researcher

What You'll Build

You'll build ApprovalMax's customer research practice while serving as a hands-on execution partner for PLG initiatives. This is a hybrid role: approximately 50-60% research, 30-40% campaign execution, with 20-30% of your time dedicated to in-product campaign management.

What makes this unique: you'll move from insight to action. You won't just identify problems and recommend solutions – you'll build and deploy the campaigns that test your hypotheses and drive measurable outcomes.

You'll have high autonomy, direct influence on product strategy, and the chance to shape how customer insights drive decisions in a growing B2B SaaS company where scrappy, actionable insights matter more than perfect methodologies.
