Our award-winning products help our global community gain a deeper knowledge of their readiness, activity, and sleep quality by using their Oura Ring and its connected app. We've helped over a million people understand and improve their health by providing daily insights and practical steps to inspire healthy lifestyles.

Empowering the world starts with living our values and empowering our team. As a quickly growing company focused on helping people live healthier and happier lives, we ensure that our team members have what they need to do their best work — both in and out of the office.

We’re looking for a Research Coordinator to join our Research Operations team in Oulu. This team leads a variety of research studies, both internal and external, to develop new features and continue to enhance the accuracy of our algorithms. Our partnerships often lead to scientific publications and provide public validation of Oura’s health sensing capabilities.

You will support our team with ongoing human research studies, both internally and with external partners. Through the work, you will develop an end-to-end understanding of data collection, from writing protocols to running studies to monitoring data quality.

This is a mostly onsite role based in Oulu, which will involve commuting into our office multiple times per week.

What you will do:

• Run in-person data collections, ensuring high-quality, high-integrity data
• Co-author protocols and SOPs in collaboration with researchers and data scientists
• Manage prototypes and research equipment, troubleshooting functionality issues
• Track study milestones, proactively flag blockers, and keep studies moving on time
• Perform manual data QC and collaborate with engineers to build automated checks
• Ensure compliance with research ethics, GCP, and Oura’s internal standards
  
  

We would love to have you on our team if you have:

• 1+ years of experience in human research studies (e.g., biology, psychology, cognitive science, biomedical engineering)
• Bachelor’s degree in a relevant field
• Familiarity with research ethics and good clinical practice
• Strong attention to detail and confidence managing timelines, tools, and documentation
• Fluency with Google Workspace, MS Excel, iOS, and Android
• Bonus: experience with biosignals (PPG, spectroscopy), and/or coding (Python, SQL)
