Job Description

We offer a flexible working policy that supports a healthy balance between personal and professional well-being. This role requires in-office presence on Tuesdays & Thursdays to collaborate, connect, and learn from peers - while also maintaining the flexibility for meaningful work-life balance. 

Being a Senior UX Researcher at iManage Means… 

At iManage, we build software that helps knowledge professionals work smarter. As a Senior UX Researcher, you will uncover insights that inform product decisions, improve interaction design, and support trusted AI experiences across our enterprise platform. 

You will work closely with product managers, designers, engineers, and other cross-functional partners to understand complex workflows, identify opportunities, and reduce product risk through research. This role is a strong fit for someone energized by enterprise software, AI-powered experiences, and turning ambiguity into clear direction. 

iM Responsible For…

  • Planning and conducting generative and evaluative research across the product lifecycle, from discovery through release 
  • Identifying user needs, pain points, behaviors, and workflow opportunities in complex enterprise environments 
  • Partnering with product, design, and engineering to inform roadmap and design decisions, improve usability, and reduce product risk 
  • Choosing the right research methods for each question, including interviews, usability studies, surveys, diary studies, and benchmarking 
  • Synthesizing qualitative and quantitative data into clear, actionable insights for product and design teams 
  • Creating artifacts such as personas, journey maps, and recommendations that help teams act with confidence 
  • Contributing to a high-quality research repository that supports insight reuse and stronger research operations 
  • Using AI-enabled tools to support synthesis and insight management while maintaining rigor, sound judgment, and appropriate data sensitivity 

iM Qualified Because I Have… 

  • 3+ years of experience conducting UX research for digital products, ideally in B2B, SaaS, or enterprise software 
  • Strong qualitative research skills and experience using mixed methods to answer product and design questions 
  • Experience partnering with product managers, designers, engineers, and other stakeholders across multiple initiatives 
  • The ability to research complex workflows and translate findings into clear recommendations for product design decisions 
  • Experience with moderated and unmoderated research 
  • Strong communication, facilitation, and storytelling skills, with the ability to tailor insights to different audiences 
  • Experience contributing to research planning and prioritization 
  • Comfort with ambiguity, iteration, and balancing immediate product needs with longer-term opportunities 
  • A demonstrated ability to advocate for users while working within technical, organizational, or domain constraints 
  • A bachelor's degree in Human-Computer Interaction, Human Factors, Psychology, or a related field 

Bonus Points If I Have…

  • Experience researching AI-powered product experiences 
  • Experience using AI-assisted tools in research workflows 
  • An understanding of responsible AI considerations such as privacy, governance, bias, and enterprise data sensitivity 
  • Experience in legal tech, knowledge management, document management, or other complex or regulated domains 

Don't meet every qualification listed above? Studies show that women and people of color are less likely to apply to jobs unless they meet all qualifications. At iManage, we are committed to building a diverse and inclusive environment, and encourage everyone to show up as their full authentic selves. We welcome those that come with a growth mindset and a hunger for learning; so, if you are excited about this role but your past experience doesn't align perfectly with every qualification we encourage you to apply anyways!

  • Join a supportive, experienced team with an inclusive, encouraging, and vibrant culture.
  • Have flexible work hours that allow me to balance my ‘me time’ with my work commitments.
  • Collaborate in a modern open plan workspace, with a gaming area, free snacks, drinks and regular social events.
  • Focus on impactful work, solving complex, real challenges utilizing the latest technologies and protocols.
  • Own my career path with our internal development framework. Ask us more about this!
  • Learn new skills and earn certifications with access to unlimited courses in LinkedIn Learning.
  • Join an innovative, industry leading SaaS company that is continuing to grow & scale!

iManage Is Supporting Me By...

  • Creating an inclusive environment where I can help shape the culture not just by fitting in, but by adding to it.
  • Providing a market competitive salary that is applied through a consistent process, equitable for all our employees, and regularly reviewed based on industry data.
  • Rewarding me with an annual performance-based bonus.
  • Offering comprehensive Health/Vision/Dental/Life Insurance, and a 401k Retirement Savings Plan with a company match up to 4%.
  • Giving access to HealthJoy, a healthcare concierge service, to help me maximize my health benefits.
  • Granting enhanced leave for expecting parents; 20 weeks 100% paid for primary leave, and 10 weeks 100% paid for secondary leave.
  • Providing me with a flexible time off policy to take the time off that I need. Be it for vacation, volunteering, celebrating holidays, spending time with family, or simply taking time to recharge and reset.
  • Caring for my mental health and well-being with multiple company wellness days and free access to the Healthy Minds app for mindfulness, meditation and more.
The overall US annual base salary range for this position is $90,000–$130,000. Individual compensation for each candidate depends on factors such as qualifications, experience, and candidate location.
