Research Collaborator III
Onsite
Summary:
At our company, our goal is to explore, innovate and design novel interfaces and hardware subsystems for the next generation of virtual, augmented, and mixed reality experiences. Our team of researchers is evaluating novel interaction techniques and user interfaces to improve human experiences in the augmented world. We are looking for a motivated Study Coordinator to join our team and support the human subject research studies we are conducting. The chosen candidates will work with a diverse and highly interdisciplinary team of researchers and engineers and will have access to cutting edge technology, resources, and testing facilities. We are specifically looking for candidates with experience in supporting human behavioral experiments.
Virtual Reality Audio Research at our company brings together a world-class team of researchers, developers, and engineers to create virtual sounds that are perceptually indistinguishable from reality, and redefining human hearing. These two initiatives will help us to connect people by allowing them to feel together despite being physically apart, and allow them to converse in even the most difficult listening environments.
We are seeking someone to manage our user studies and data processing efforts in support for research programs across both initiatives. Ideal candidates will have strong skills in behavioral data collection, experimental and survey research, study participant scheduling, and debriefing. They will also be excellent communicators, knowledgeable about user research, institutional review board procedures, and passionate about human perceptual research. They should also be comfortable in a flat, fast moving organization, excited to collaborate, and focused squarely on impacting audio experiences in AR and VR. They will participate in developing research studies, data collection methods, and data management for a variety of concurrently running studies. Duties will also include ensuring that studies have the appropriate level of research assistant support, overseeing participant recruitment, coordinating facilities and equipment usage, and coordinating with the activities of the larger audio team and research organization.
As a Study Coordinator, your key responsibilities are to facilitate the smooth collection of data and ensure strict compliance with documentation for research studies involving human participants. You will be at the heart of both in-person and remote studies, taking charge of their organization, planning, execution, and data collection. Working with our staff, you will ensure that every aspect of the study setup and protocols aligns with industry-leading standards of safety, privacy, and security.
