About The Position

At Google, we "Focus on the user and all else will follow." As a Quantitative
User Experience Researcher (Quant UXR), you make this possible. You will join a
multi-disciplinary team, collaborating closely with Engineering and Product
Management to create industry-leading, innovative products.

You will drive impact at all stages of development by investigating user
behavior through empirical methods like logs analysis, survey research, and
regression. We value diverse educational experiences—from Computer Science to
Psychology—and require a blend of behavioral research design, statistical
proficiency, and programming skills to uncover actionable insights. Beyond the
work, you will grow within a supportive Quant UXR community offering mentorship,
regular meetups, and exclusive internal tools to help you thrive.

As a Quantitative UX Researcher for Legal and Procurement within Corporate
Engineering, you will quantify the user experience of Google’s internal
governance systems. You will support research for AI-driven innovation across
Legal and Procurement workflows. In this role, you will be a key partner to
Product and Engineering, focusing on the evaluation of the AI development
life-cycle. You will implement experimentation frameworks and analyze "live
sandboxes" to help the team iterate on AI-powered workflows. You will drive
multiple projects in a fast-paced environment to improve our quantitative
insights, including instrumentation, metrics tracking, and data analysis.

At Corp Eng, we build world-leading business solutions that scale a more helpful
