Polarsteps, Amsterdam
Looking for a new adventure? You’ve come to the right place.
We're an Amsterdam-based team of 100 (and counting) with 25+ nationalities amongst us! A varied bunch of “Citizens of The World” with a wide range of skills and hundreds of thousands of kilometers under our travel belts. And we have something important in common (other than our very well-worn passports): We want to change the way people travel.
And that's exactly what we're doing, with the travel app to plan, track, and relive trips in a smart and beautiful way.
Polarsteps has over 23 million users already, but, for us, this is just the beginning. We have big plans for the future, and so we need even more talented and enthusiastic people to help us on our journey.
Want to know more about us? Here https://careers.polarsteps.com/ you go.
We’re a small team, doing big things.
We pride ourselves on being user-centric, providing a seamless, top-quality user experience for every one of our travelers. And it is this that has got us ratings of 4.8* and 4.7* on the app stores (where we’ve been featured multiple times).
As the company grows, we need to strengthen our ability to deliver insights to teams through User Research, a core competency of the company. Which is why we need you! We already have a User Research Lead who has been building out our processes and team, and now we are looking to increase our capacity and bring more insights to our product team.
As a Senior User Researcher, you will be part of the Design + Brand organisation, embedded directly into Product teams to ensure insights impact decision-making. You'll act as a strategic navigator, helping teams understand what insights mean for where we are taking the company. You will champion a culture of learning and listening throughout your product area(s) to enable user-centric product development.
We're at an early-mid stage of research maturity. We have good buy-in and some processes in place, but you'll be expected to own your own ResearchOps (recruiting, scheduling, tooling) without dedicated support. If you thrive in a self-directed, low-overhead environment, you'll love it here.
What your journey at Polarsteps will look like day-to-day.
What we’re hoping you’ll bring with you.
Some cool things to make the journey extra sweet.
At Polarsteps, we believe the best products are built by people as diverse as the travelers using our apps! That's why we specifically encourage people underrepresented in the tech industry to apply for a role with us. Because we believe that diversity — be it age, race, sexual orientation, physical ability, ethnicity, or gender identity — makes both the world and the workplace better.
