About the Role

The Staff Qualitative Researcher is Superbet's most senior practitioner of human-centred inquiry. This is a hands-on, high-output IC role. You are the person who knows how to get to the truth of a user's experience: their mental models, their anxieties, their unspoken expectations, their moments of delight and frustration.

You will lead qualitative research across the most strategically important and ambiguous product questions Superbet faces - from understanding how new markets experience sports for the first time, to uncovering the emotional dynamics of live in-play gambling, to defining what responsible gaming actually feels like from a user's perspective. You will work closely with the Principal Quant Researcher and the Research Manager to ensure qualitative and quantitative evidence are always richer together than apart.

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 Own

Deep Qualitative Research Execution

• Design and independently execute complex, multi-method qualitative research programmes spanning generative discovery, concept exploration, and evaluative depth - not just individual studies but longitudinal programmes of inquiry.
• Lead the most high-stakes and ambiguous research briefs: new market entry, new product category launches, trust and safety research, responsible gambling insights, and strategic bets where the organisation has the least existing evidence.
• Operate the full qualitative toolkit with mastery: semi-structured and unstructured in-depth interviews, contextual inquiry and ethnographic observation, diary studies and longitudinal panels, participatory design workshops, focus groups, co-creation sessions, and remote moderated/unmoderated studies.
• You have deep expertise in mental models, perception, jobs to be done and combining them to paint a rich psychological and workflow design. 
• Own recruitment strategy end-to-end: define screeners, work with research ops and vendors, build proprietary panels where needed, and ensure participant samples are representative of the diversity of Superbet's user base across markets.
• Produce analysis that goes beyond surface themes: you apply systematic coding, grounded theory approaches, interpretive phenomenological analysis, or jobs-to-be-done frameworks -  selecting the analytical lens that fits the question, not the one that's familiar.
• You inspire product teams to take action and drive progress. You can handle different levels of exposure to research within the company and convert colleagues to champions. 

AI-Enhanced Qualitative Workflows

• Lead the integration of AI tooling into Superbet's qualitative research practice - not as a replacement for human interpretation but as a force multiplier that increases throughput and analytical depth.
• Deploy LLM-assisted transcript analysis pipelines that handle first-pass thematic coding, anomaly flagging, and cross-participant pattern detection - freeing analyst time for higher-order interpretation.
• Use AI tools for rapid synthesis across large corpora of qual data: customer feedback, support tickets, app reviews, social listening, and interview transcripts - triangulating signals that would otherwise require weeks of manual work.
• Critically evaluate the output of AI-assisted analysis for bias, hallucination, and over-compression - maintaining methodological integrity while embracing efficiency.
• Build workflows and documentation that allow the broader team to use AI-assisted qual tools responsibly, and run training sessions that upskill colleagues on both the power and the limits of these tools.

Strategic Insight Generation & Storytelling

• Translate raw qualitative data into insight frameworks that have a life beyond the single study: mental model maps, user need taxonomies, experience principles, and behavioural archetypes that inform multiple product teams over multiple quarters.
• Craft research deliverables that move people — not slide decks of quotes, but evidence-driven narratives that make stakeholders genuinely see the world through the user's eyes.
• Partner with the Principal Quant Researcher to design mixed-methods programmes where qual findings generate hypotheses that quant can test at scale, and where quant anomalies trigger qual investigation.
• Present research to senior and executive stakeholders with confidence and authority — you know how to hold the room, handle pushback on findings, and advocate for the user even when their experience is inconvenient for the business.
• Maintain a living qualitative insights repository: tag and cross-reference findings so that past research informs present decisions and the organisation's qualitative knowledge compounds over time.

Research Quality, Standards & Community

• Set the qualitative methodological bar for the research team: review study designs, discussion guides, and analysis from junior and mid-level researchers - providing specific, developmental feedback that elevates their craft.
• Develop and maintain qualitative research standards documentation: best practices for moderation, coding, synthesis, and reporting that are practical, not theoretical.
• Act as a qualitative research community builder within Superbet: run internal workshops, share cutting-edge methods from the field, and make qualitative research legible and valued by non-research partners.
• Identify opportunities to democratise qualitative methods across Product and Design teams, building guardrails and templates that enable safe self-serve research without compromising rigour.

What We Are Looking For

Essential Experience

• 8+ years of UX research experience with a clear depth specialisation in qualitative methods -  ideally with experience in both generative and evaluative contexts across the full product development lifecycle.
• Mastery of qualitative data collection: exceptional moderation skills across IDIs, focus groups, diary studies, ethnographic observation, and co-design facilitation. You are comfortable in the field, in a lab, and on a video call.
• Deep qualitative analysis expertise: systematic thematic analysis, grounded theory, affinity diagramming at scale, IPA, and the judgment to know when interpretive depth is needed versus surface-level synthesis.
• Strong mixed-methods fluency: experience designing studies that integrate qual and quant, and the ability to have a credible technical conversation with quantitative researchers about their methodology.
• Demonstrated experience using AI tools in qualitative workflows - not just awareness, but real implementation with critical assessment of quality and validity.
• A track record of qualitative research that influenced major product or strategy decisions, with specific examples you can speak to in depth.
• Experience working across multiple markets or cultural contexts - essential given Superbet's multi-country footprint.

Skills & Mindset

• World-class moderator: You have a gift for putting participants at ease and creating the conditions where genuine, unguarded truth emerges. You know when to probe, when to wait, and when to redirect.
• Interpretive depth: You go beyond what users say to understand what they mean — and you can defend your interpretations with analytical rigour, not just instinct.
• AI-enhanced, not AI-dependent: You use AI to go faster and deeper, but your analytical judgement is irreplaceable and you know it. You apply AI tools critically, not uncritically.
• Generative thinker: You don't just answer the research question - you reframe it when necessary, spot adjacent insights the brief didn't ask for, and bring back richer evidence than expected.
• Empathy with edge: You care deeply about users and can advocate for them powerfully - but you're not naive. You understand the commercial context and know how to make the business case for user-centred decisions.
• Cultural intelligence: You are sensitive to the ways that culture shapes how people talk about their experiences, and you adjust your research approach accordingly.
• Org Mover - Your research is not theory alone, you know how to make things tangible, bite sized and move people and work forward. 
• Embrace difficult conversations - Driving research impact is as much about doing good research as it is about convincing people to see things your way. You work with people both easy and difficult to collaborate with to make great experiences come alive. 

Nice to Have

• MSc or PhD in Psychology, Anthropology, Sociology, HCI, Cultural Studies, or a related human behaviour field.
• Experience in high intensity consumer products, marketplaces, gaming, financial services, with some degree of experience in trust and safety is useful. 
• Experience with specialist qualitative methods: semiotics, discourse analysis, narrative research, or video ethnography.
• Proficiency with qualitative analysis tools: Dovetail, NVivo, MAXQDA, Atlas.ti, Reduct.
• Experience building or managing qualitative research panels or longitudinal participant communities.
• Published work or conference presentations in a qualitative research or HCI venue.

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.

• Experience working with financial data is a must, ideally in the financial services industry. The nature of this role requires both affinity and experience to this type of data.

Our tech stack includes an ever-evolving range of systems and technologies, and our engineers have the freedom to choose the best solution for the problem at hand. If a new technology has the potential to add value, we’ll actively invest in exploring, adopting and developing it. 

The role: What's in the Box

Factor Europe is scaling rapidly, and we are looking for a high-agency Product Analyst to be the first dedicated data hire within our Product team.

In this role, you will dive deep into our most pressing questions on our path to Product-Market Fit: honing in on the problems our customers face, what product decisions drive their behaviour, and why we are winning (or losing) with specific segments. You will be the technical bridge for a small, flat Product team (comprising Culinary R&D, Nutrition, Menu Planning, and Strategy), helping us define our product roadmap and continuously improve the customer experience.

This is an early stage opportunity for an analyst who wants to build. The Factor Europe team operates with the agility and urgency of a startup, but the resources and infrastructure of the HelloFresh Group. If that sounds like the perfect mix for you, we’d love to chat!

What you’ll do: The Recipe

1. Deep-Dive Research & Insights

• Perform in-depth analyses (e.g. cohort analysis, A/B tests) to evaluate the impact of every physical product decision we make, identifying which recipe / menu changes drive customer retention.
• Tackle complex and open-ended research questions, helping us validate leading hypotheses about our customers’ needs and behaviours, translating messy (and often imperfect) data into clear, digestible narratives.
• Triangulate quantitative data with qualitative feedback (customer reviews, sensory testing, and surveys) to build a 360-degree view of the customer.
• Proactively seek out and identify opportunities to improve our customer offering through independent research and analysis. 

2. Infrastructure & Tool Building

• Build and maintain the queries, dashboards, and automated GSheet tools that empower the rest of the Product team to find their own answers.
• Support the creation and tracking of relevant metrics that will help explain the causal relationship between our team’s weekly actions, customer engagement, and business performance.
• Automate repetitive data tasks, ensuring the team spends less time updating trackers and more time improving our product offering.

3. Be a Data Champion

• Build a culture of data-drivenness by promoting data literacy, quality, and best practice within the team.
• Improve and automate our weekly business performance review process, ensuring data is reliable and available, making this the most valuable meeting of the week.
• Serve as a data champion beyond the Product team, supporting in automating processes and conducting cross-functional analysis where Product intersects with Production and Procurement.

What you’ll bring: The Ingredients

• Bias for action: You don’t wait for research questions to come to you; you are curious about what makes our business successful and are constantly looking for insights that will give our team an edge. 
• Resourceful: You don’t get stuck easily: you dig, ask questions, and find a workaround to keep the project moving, even when data tables are messy or undocumented.
• A storyteller: You understand that data is useless if it isn’t understood; you make complex analysis digestible and actionable for everyone, from our Chefs to senior leadership.
• A builder: You thrive in the ambiguity of a pre-product/market fit environment, and get satisfaction from building the infrastructure (e.g. a tool or a sheet) that makes your teammates’ lives easier. 
• Intellectually curious: You aren’t satisfied with “what” happened; you are focused on “why” it happened.
• Customer-obsessed: You’re able to move beyond the data and think through the real-world experience of our customers, building empathy for what delights and frustrates them
• Technical proficiency: Mastery of Excel/GSheets and SQL is a must. You should be comfortable using Python for data manipulation and Tableau for data visualization. Curiosity for and familiarity with AI tools is a major plus.
• Experience: 2-4 years of experience in a Product Analytics, Data Analytics, or highly quantitative Business Intelligence role. Experience in a high-growth startup, subscription / e-commerce, and/or FMCG environment is a major plus.
• Analytical rigour: You know how to structure an experiment, identify biases in data, and ensure that your insights are statistically sound.

Above all, we are looking for people who will make HelloFresh better. There are many different ways of developing skills, and we love diverse experiences! So even if you don’t “tick all the boxes” but think you’d thrive in this role, we would really like to learn more about you.

Are you the missing ingredient? If this sounds like a tasty opportunity, we’d be excited to hear from you. We aim to review your profile and respond within 5 business days.

If you have already applied for this position during the current recruitment season and were not selected, you may reapply when the next recruitment season begins in September 2026. We encourage you to focus on enhancing your skillset before reapplying.

Due to U.S. consulate restrictions, candidates from certain nations (including Russia, Belarus, and Iran) are required to apply for their visa in a designated third country or to prove strong ties with a country of residency. Since the global traineeship begins shortly after employment starts, there is not enough time to establish the ties with the Netherlands which is needed for approval. As a result, we are unable to proceed with your candidacy for the graduate traineeship programme at this time. We greatly appreciate your understanding and hope to consider you for future opportunities.

If you are a dual passport holder of another nationality or a European citizen who wants to relocate back to Europe, you remain welcome to apply and should inform our campus recruitment team of your situation: CampusEU@imc.com.

At IMC, we believe technology is the foundation of our competitive edge — and machine learning is increasingly central to how we trade. Over the past few years, we've been steadily building our machine learning capabilities: developing infrastructure, growing our in-house GPU cluster, deploying models into production, and partnering closely with quant researchers and traders to generate real impact. Now we’re expanding the team, scaling our systems, and accelerating the application of deep learning in our research and execution workflows.  We're looking for a Principal Machine Learning Engineer to help shape the next phase of our platform — influencing architecture, driving best practices, and solving high-leverage problems. You’ll work alongside researchers and technologists to design the systems that power experimentation, training, and deployment of ML models — and help set the direction for how machine learning is done at IMC as we scale. If you’ve built ML infrastructure at scale elsewhere and are looking for a role where your ideas will genuinely help shape our firm’s future — we’d love to hear from you.

Your Core Responsibilities: 

• Design and build end-to-end infrastructure for training, evaluation, and productionization of ML models, working closely with our HPC engineers who manage our on-prem compute cluster
• Influence foundational choices around data access, compute orchestration, experiment tracking, model versioning, and deployment pipelines
• Partner with quant researchers to accelerate iteration cycles, tighten feedback loops, and bring models from prototype to live trading
• Work with researchers to adapt and deploy modern architectures — transformers, state-space models, temporal convolutions, graph neural networks — to noisy, high-frequency financial data. Explore techniques like self-supervised pretraining, representation learning, and cross-sectional modelling where they offer genuine edge
• Shape our approach to reproducibility, continual learning, and production monitoring across a petabyte-scale data environment
• Define standards that create consistency across teams and geographies; mentor engineers and influence technical culture beyond your immediate work
• Keep pace with developments in deep learning research and ML infrastructure; bring ideas from academia and industry into how we work — whether that's new architectures, training techniques, or tooling

Your Skills and Experience: 

• 8+ years of experience building ML platforms or infrastructure at a leading tech company, research lab, or quantitative firm
• A track record of designing and owning large-scale training and inference systems — not just contributing, but architecting
• Deep proficiency in Python, with strong experience in either CUDA or C++
• Hands-on expertise with modern deep learning frameworks (PyTorch, TensorFlow, or JAX) and practical experience implementing architectures like transformers, attention mechanisms, or sequence models
• Strong foundation in deep learning fundamentals: optimization, regularization, loss design, and the trade-offs that matter when training at scale
• Experience with distributed training at scale (Horovod, NCCL) and GPU optimization (cuDNN, TensorRT)
• History of deploying models to production with strong observability, reproducibility, and monitoring practices
• Comfort working across the ML stack from data pipelines to training infrastructure to serving systems

Why This Role: 

• Build, don't inherit — You'll make foundational technology choices in a platform that's still being defined, not maintain someone else's legacy.
• Real investment, real backing — This is a strategic priority with resources behind it, not a side experiment.
• Direct impact on trading — Your infrastructure will power models that make real trading decisions in competitive global markets.
• Global scope — Work with teams across New York, Chicago, Amsterdam, London, Sydney, Hong Kong and beyond; define practices that can scale worldwide.
• Ideas over titles — IMC's culture values clarity, rigor, and collaboration. The best ideas win, regardless of where they come from.
• Tight coupling with research — You won't be building in isolation. Researchers and engineers work side-by-side, iterating together.
