About the Role

Superbet is building the future of gaming experiences, and we need a visionary lead to architect our AI-first UX Research Operations function from the ground up. This is a rare opportunity to define how AI transforms research at scale - moving from traditional qual/quant methods to intelligent, automated insight generation that keeps pace with our global expansion. 

You'll be the bridge between cutting-edge AI capabilities and human-centered research excellence, building systems that allow our product teams to make confident, data-informed decisions 10x faster than traditional research allows. 

This is not a traditional ResearchOps role. We're looking for someone who sees AI as the primary research infrastructure, not just a productivity tool. 

You bring methodological mastery, creative curiosity, and the kind of presence that makes participants forget they're being observed and leaders believe you shape company wide narratives. You also bring a future positive mindset: you are actively integrating AI tools into your workflow to do more, faster, without sacrificing the depth that makes qual irreplaceable. You know when AI is helpful and when it is not and can help junior researchers make decisions around when to use them. 

What You Will Build

Year 1: Foundation

• AI Research Infrastructure: Design and implement an AI-native research stack that automates insight synthesis, pattern detection, and continuous discovery 
• Intelligent Repository: Build a living research knowledge base where AI surfaces relevant insights the moment teams need them—no searching through Notion or Dovetail 
• Automated Research Workflows: Deploy AI agents for interview transcription, analysis, synthesis, competitive intelligence, and sentiment monitoring across 12+ markets 
• Research Democratization: Enable product managers, designers, and engineers to self-serve 80% of research questions through AI-assisted tools 

Year 2: Scale 

• Continuous User Understanding: Establish always-on research systems (AI-powered surveys, behavioral analytics, community listening) that generate insights without manual studies Predictive Research: Build models that anticipate user needs, friction points, and opportunities before traditional research would surface them 
• Cross-Market Intelligence: Create AI systems that synthesize insights across Superbet's global markets, detecting regional patterns and universal truths 
• Research Quality Assurance: Implement AI-assisted validation frameworks to ensure insights are reliable, unbiased, and actionable

Year 3: Always On Insights 

• AI predicts user friction points before traditional research surfaces them 
• Cross-market insight synthesis happens automatically 
• Research velocity 10x faster than traditional methods 
• Industry-leading case study: "How Superbet built AI-first research" 

What Success Looks Like 

6 Months:

• - AI research stack operational across 3+ product teams 
• - 50% reduction in time-to-insight for common research questions 
• - Research knowledge base with 100+ synthesized insights, AI-searchable 

12 Months: - Product teams self-serve 70%+ of research needs through AI tools - Continuous user understanding systems running across all markets - Research influences 90%+ of major product decisions 

What We Are Looking For

Basic Experience

Skills & Mindset

• World-class operator: You have a gift for going across the organization to find the most optimal ways of work - time, money, resource wise.

Why This Role at Superbet

Sports is one of the richest contexts for qualitative research: the experience is emotionally intense, socially embedded, culturally specific, and morally complex. Users have contradictory motivations. Their stated and actual behaviour diverge. The moments of joy and frustration are extreme. Understanding all of this deeply, not just what users click, but why they feel what they feel - is what separates good product decisions from great ones.

• Access to a diverse, passionate user base across 12+ markets - every cultural context brings new research challenges.
• A team that values qualitative rigour and won't ask you to reduce everything to a number.
• Senior visibility: your insights will be read by the CPO and product leadership, not just deposited in a repo.
• A Principal Quant Researcher as a genuine peer - someone to build with, argue with, and create better mixed-methods evidence with.
• Competitive compensation at Staff IC level with equity and a genuine investment in your development as a researcher.
