We believe exceptional companies are built by exceptional teams, and we're intentional about it.

What’s the role?

We’re looking for a Staff Quantitative UX Researcher to help define and raise the quality of experiences across Etsy. You will lead a quantitative research and measurement practice — grounded in rigorous survey design, statistical analysis, and experimental methods — to help build buyer and seller experiences that are usable, distinctive, and polished.

You’ll benchmark core Etsy buyer and seller flows using validated metrics and longitudinal data, identify the most consequential usability gaps, and help teams understand — with statistical confidence — whether modernization efforts are significantly improving the customer experience.

This is a highly collaborative and influential individual contributor role. You will work across Etsy with Product, Design, Engineering, Analytics, and Research, translating quantitative evidence into clear priorities, standards, and recommendations. You will own a cross-functional measurement program, not simply a series of individual studies.
