What are the responsibilities and job description for the Product Researcher position at OneCare Media?
About Us
OneCare Media is a high-growth, Seattle-based digital media company that is building the next generation of health media. Our digital brands provide best-in-class services that bridge the gap between information and action across a variety of industries, including sleep, telehealth, and at-home testing.
About the Role
OneCare Media seeks a Product Researcher to research and test various products in our portfolio. As a researcher, you'll develop a deep understanding for the products, develop new and cutting edge testing, and work across teams to report your findings.
Researchers work as architects for our content-based products - identifying trends in topics our readers care about, understanding user-intent and building product specifications for what visitors will read and use across our portfolio. This product-focused role will perform hands-on testing of products in our testing lab space, aid in developing and refining our current testing methodologies and practices, and document and organize the results of our in-house testing. You'll be acting as a product expert who bridges the gap between multiple teams, helping to up-level our product-based content and knowledge for the benefit of our readers. This role requires the ability to discuss and present the results of our product testing to in-person audiences and on-camera.
The ideal candidate will be a well-rounded and flexible administrator, with strong organizational and project planning skills. A scientific-leaning mind that excels at brainstorming and building methodical, product-by-product approaches to product testing is a perfect fit for this role. Prior experience working in product testing or quality assurance is preferred, though we are willing to spend time training the right candidate.
This position reports to OneCare's Creative Producer and will be based out of our Seattle office.

- Collaborate and consult with OneCare Media team members and others in the execution of video and other content projects
- Apply a perspective of equity in developing and producing content, staying current on the evolving ways that content can support and promote diversity, inclusion and equity
- Collaborate with and receive direction from the Creative Producer
- Create product specifications for our production team
- Write and deliver scripts on-camera
What We Are Looking For
- At least 1-2 years of product testing or product review experience
- Ability to work successfully in a highly collaborative team environment as well as independently
- An eye for detail and sense of care in working with data
