We’re hiring a UX Researcher to help shape the future of mobility at FREE NOW. We are aiming to build a sustainable mobility experience for all of our customers, integrating multiple services onto our platform, so they have tons of choice when it comes to getting around their cities. You will partner with some of our cross-functional teams to lead research efforts on specific topics in this role. You'll be working in an environment that truly understands the value of providing a good experience, and your research will directly impact how we build our products.

As the UX Research team, we seek to improve product value throughout the entire customer experience by understanding the ‘how and why’ of people’s movement. To do this, we provide research insights at every stage of the product life cycle and collaborate with stakeholders across the business.    

If you are passionate about the craft and process of building world-class products, you love helping your peers to grow, and you’d geek out on solving real problems for our customers, you’ll fit right in.

This role will work exclusively on the FREE NOW product offering.

Location

If you’d like to, you can work completely remotely (regardless of the COVID-19 situation). We also have offices for our product teams in Hamburg, Berlin & Barcelona, so whether you thrive when surrounded by your peers, or you do your best work home alone, with a pet on your knee, we’ve got you covered. We’d love to hire absolutely everywhere, but right now, we have a few restrictions on where you can be based and the time zone we’d like you to work to, based on where the majority of the team is based. You would be working closely with our teams in Hamburg & Berlin, so we would need you to be able to work from one of the 11 countries where we have a legal entity**
