This role reports directly to the UX Strategist and executes the analytical and research backbone of the optimization strategy they own. Where the Strategist sets direction and owns the client-facing narrative, this person owns the depth: the journey maps, the funnel builds, the cohort analyses, and the qualitative research that make every recommendation defensible. The ideal candidate is a true quantitative expert with equally strong qualitative instincts - someone who can pull a statistically sound insight out of a GA4 funnel and also run a usability session that explains why the number looks the way it does. You have deep comprehension of Google Analytics and the Shopify ecosystem, and you use both to tell a story around user experience through a data-driven lens. You will work cross-functionally alongside the UX Strategist, designers, and developers to properly tag events, track user flows, and evaluate site performance against defined KPIs - with a particular focus on journey mapping, funnel construction, LTV cohorting, and measuring the downstream impact of every UX change we ship. Core Responsibilities 1. Journey Mapping & Funnel Analysis * Build and maintain detailed journey maps and end-to-end conversion funnels (landing * PDP * cart * checkout * purchase * retention) * Understand and improve how users move through the funnel, diagnosing high abandonment and bounce points * Draw qualitative insight about user experience from quantitative data, and vice versa * Surface friction points and translate them into clear, testable opportunity areas for the Strategist's roadmap 2. Quantitative Data Analysis * Conduct thorough data analysis in GA4 and Shopify to understand how users interact with and move through the site * Build and maintain LTV cohort analyses to connect UX and onsite behavior to long-term customer value and retention * Own data accuracy and integrity as a core competency - analyzing, validating, and pulling insight from the numbers before anyone else touches them * Apply sound statistical practice to ensure findings are reliable, not just directional 3. Qualitative & Mixed-Methods Research * Plan and run qualitative research - usability testing, heuristic evaluation, and user interviews - to explain the "why" behind the data * Apply UX best practices and heuristics to evaluate and improve user experience * Blend qualitative and quantitative methods into a single, coherent read on user behavior * Create artifacts such as user flows, wireflows, and journey maps to communicate findings internally and to clients 4. Event Tagging & Measurement Infrastructure * Partner with developers to tag interactive elements of the site, ensuring data accuracy and full visibility into user behavior * Identify tracking gaps and help build out the event architecture that underpins the Strategist's measurement strategy * Support GA4 funnel setup, custom event design, and ongoing tracking QA 5. A/B Testing & Impact Measurement * Maintain a high-velocity, robust A/B testing program with clear strategic hypotheses tied to account goals and success metrics * Measure and report on the impact of tests and site changes on website performance, LTV, and retention * Rigorously measure the downstream impact of shipped UX implementations, not just the initial test result - closing the loop from hypothesis to long-term outcome 6. Reporting & Insight Communication * Skillfully translate key findings into insights and recommendations that support the Strategist's client narrative * Create effective, well-structured reports and dashboards that make complex data easy to act on * Present findings and recommendations clearly, both in written reports and verbal presentation to stakeholders 7. Cross-Functional Collaboration * Work alongside the UX Strategist, designers, and developers to move from insight to shipped improvement * Operate comfortably across multiple clients in a fast-paced environment * Support the Strategist's roadmap with research and analysis delivered on the cadence the account needs, We are seeking a dedicated Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) to join our team.
