Who Should Apply
Five-plus years of market research or analytics experience makes you a strong fit. You excel at applying both qualitative and quantitative methods to real-world questions and can translate ambiguous aims into testable hypotheses. This role suits professionals who can critique AI-generated outputs and produce rigorous, decision-ready research deliverables. It is less suitable for candidates seeking full-time in-house roles or those without experience in AI data contexts or remote contractor environments.
