Desirable

• We're looking for a Qualitative UX Researcher (6 month contract) to own the voice of the user across Suno's current user, subscriber, and power user experience
• This role is focused on Suno's mobile apps — understanding how casual users and professionals alike use Suno, what keeps them engaged, and what's missing
• You'll work closely with PMs, designers, and engineers to bring user signal into every product decision as it's being shaped
• You'll be embedded in fast-moving teams and responsible for scoping, executing, and synthesizing research at the pace of the product org
• We move fast, decisions happen daily, and research is most valuable when it arrives in time to shape those decisions
• This role is ideal for someone who thrives with high ownership and self-drive in that kind of environment
• Lead end-to-end qualitative research — interviews, usability tests, diary studies — primarily for mobile, but also web and platform experiences
• Develop and deploy surveys that complement qualitative findings and provide lightweight validation for hypotheses
• Collaborate closely with Product, Design, and Engineering to scope research, identify learning goals, and quickly synthesize findings into actionable insights
• Deliver research at the speed of the product team, not on a separate research timeline
• Advocate for the user across all touchpoints — from onboarding to creator tools to content discovery
• Help establish and evolve research best practices and scalable processes to support rapid experimentation and growing demand
• This is a 6 month contract, and there will be an opportunity to convert into a full-time position in the future
