What are the responsibilities and job description for the UX Researcher (Part-Time) position at Pavilion?
About Pavilion
Pavilion's mission is to improve the lives of all Americans by making public procurement work better. As consumers, public servants can do almost anything quickly and online. But at work, completing a purchase on behalf of their agency takes months - or years - and relies on tech that hasn't changed since the '90s. The process isn't just painful for public servants; long timelines and high costs deter many businesses from serving this $2T / year industry and produce suboptimal outcomes for Americans who rely on public services.
Our marketplace empowers public entity buyers to find and buy from suppliers that have been pre-qualified to sell into the public sector, reducing costs and the time to purchase from months to just weeks or even days. We've already become the go-to resource for thousands of public entities that spend over $1.5B annually through our platform. Fueled by strong buyer growth, we're now building out the supply side of our marketplace and scaling our paid supplier offering, "Pavilion Pro."
