Senior Product Designer

Participant recruiting infrastructure for the research industry.

We’re building the best research panel in the world - join us! Since our founder recruited the first participants to the panel on the NYC subway, we’ve built a panel of more than 3m participants across 150 countries - making Respondent the industry’s most diverse participant panel. Right now the research industry is going through an enormous change, and we’re at the forefront of it. As AI makes it easier to run high-quality research with 1,000s of participants at once (instead of 10s), we’re seeing demand for our participants grow at lightning speed. Our customers include Microsoft, Dropbox, P&G, and 500 others, and we fuel the research industry with high-quality participants via an integration with software partners including Maze, Rally, and Great Question.
