UX Researcher II
Brooklinen, New York, NY, United States
Overview
At Brooklinen, we believe that comfort creates happiness — and that starts with truly understanding our customers. We’re looking for a thoughtful, curious, and collaborative UX Researcher II to help our Product Design team make better, faster, and more customer‑informed decisions.
In this role, you’ll execute and support research that brings the voice of the customer into product development and experience design. You’ll report to our Director of Product Design and partner closely with Product Design, Product Management, Engineering, and Brand to shape digital experiences that feel intuitive, seamless, and grounded in how our customers actually shop and live.
This is an ideal opportunity for someone with a strong foundation in UX research who is excited to grow their craft, contribute to meaningful work, and develop into a more strategic research partner over time.

Research Execution
Execute moderated and unmoderated UX research studies, including usability testing, interviews, and surveys
Develop research materials such as discussion guides, surveys, and usability test plans
Help validate concepts, flows, and experience improvements before development

Communicate research outcomes through concise readouts, presentations, and written summaries
Ensure research insights are reflected in product and design decisions
Contribute to research across key digital customer journeys (e.g., navigation, PDPs, cart, checkout, search), in close partnership with Product and Design
Help the team better understand not just how customers shop, but how they make decisions in the context of their everyday lives
Balance rigor with speed, delivering thoughtful insights in a fast‑paced environment
What Success Looks Like
Independently execute research studies end‑to‑end with strong attention to detail and quality
Build strong working relationships with Product Design, Product, and Engineering, and become a trusted partner in bringing the customer perspective into decisions
Deliver research findings that are consistently clear, actionable, and easy for stakeholders to apply
Contribute to faster, more confident product decisions by balancing rigor with speed
Demonstrate strong judgment in selecting appropriate research methods and continue to grow your craft over time
Help improve key moments across the digital experience, supporting a more seamless and intuitive customer journey
