About the opportunity

We are looking for a Lead User Researcher to join N26’s UX Team. 

In this role, you will be an integral part of our UX Core function, working closely with Research, Data, and Strategy specialists from various parts of the business. Together, you will ensure a strong organizational culture of experimentation and exploration by enabling insights-informed continuous learning. You will report to our UX Core Lead.

This is us

N26’s UX Team is part of the larger Product & UX organization. We are a multidisciplinary team of 40+ talented individuals (known as “UXers”), who practice Product Design, User Research, UX Writing, and Design Operations. Most of our UXers are distributed across various cross-functional teams, looking after different product verticals. We are led by our UX Director and our team is based in Berlin and Barcelona.

UX Core is a centralized function within our UX Team that establishes the foundation for all UX work to happen. UX Core is responsible for UX Operations and Design System, while also serving as incubator for new disciplines, such as Content Design.

UXers within UX Core work on strategic initiatives that directly contribute to our Product, Tech, and UX (known internally as “PTX”) OKRs, without shying away from hands-on work when needed. Simply put, UX Core provides the time, space, and tools to boost creativity, innovation, and efficiency for the larger team and organization.
