Job Details

Summary
Kuda is a money app for Africans on a mission to make financial services accessible, affordable and rewarding for every African on the planet.

We’re a tribe of passionate and diverse people who dreamed of building an inclusive money app that Africans would love so it’s only right that we ended up with the name ‘Kuda’ which means ‘love’ in Shona, a language spoken in the southern part of Africa.
We’re giving Africans around the world a better alternative to traditional finance by delivering money transfers, smart budgeting and instant access to credit through digital devices.
We’ve raised over $90 million from some of the world's most respected institutional investors, and we’re rolling out our game-changing services globally from our offices in Nigeria, South Africa, and the UK.

Role Overview

We’re looking for a Senior UX Researcher to lead our user insights efforts and help us design delightful, intuitive, impactful and scalable experiences.

As a Senior UX Researcher, you will be a key advocate for the voice of the user. You will collaborate closely with product managers, designers, and stakeholders to uncover actionable insights that inform product strategy and design decisions. Your research will guide the creation of innovative and impactful digital solutions that align with both user needs and business goals.

Responsibilities

Research Planning & Execution:

  • Design and conduct qualitative and quantitative research studies (interviews, surveys, usability tests, etc.).
  • Develop comprehensive research strategies to address key product and business questions.

User Insights:

  • Synthesize research findings into actionable insights and communicate them through compelling reports, presentations, and workshops.
  • Advocate for the user throughout the product development lifecycle.

Collaboration:

  • Partner with product managers, designers, data analysts, and engineers to prioritize research questions and integrate findings into product strategies.
  • Facilitate design thinking workshops and co-creation sessions to inspire product innovation.

Methodology Development:

  • Innovate and standardize research methodologies and best practices.
  • Develop scalable research frameworks to support rapid testing and learning cycles.

Stakeholder Engagement:

  • Present research findings to senior stakeholders and influence product strategy with user-driven insights.
