• Actively help shape the direction of both SoFi and the Research team
  
  
  

What You'll Need:

• 8+ years of experience in Research, at least 3 as a formal people manager
• Strong expertise in coaching, performance management, and team member development
• Command of a broad set of quantitative, qualitative, and user-centered methods
• Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills, with the ability to synthesize and communicate ideas visually, verbally, and in writing to all levels, including senior leadership and executives
• Experience managing and prioritizing multiple projects and priorities simultaneously
