Stephanie Eilert

As a seasoned User and UX Researcher with 10 years of experience, I specialize in uncovering user insights that shape product decisions. I’m skilled in mixed methods research, seamlessly blending qualitative techniques like usability testing and journey mapping with quantitative approaches such as surveys and data analysis. This versatile skill set empowers me to deliver actionable insights across every stage of the product development lifecycle.

My professional journey spans diverse industries, including healthcare, pharma, finance, and automotive, where I thrive on tackling complex challenges. I’m particularly passionate about long-term projects that allow me to dive deep into users’ needs and goals while aligning with the client’s mission and strategy to create holistic, user-centered designs.

Teamwork is at the heart of my approach. I actively contribute to cross-functional teams, collaborating closely with designers, product managers, and developers to ensure that user insights are seamlessly integrated into decision-making and design processes. I value open communication and shared understanding, working to foster environments where ideas can flourish and lead to tangible results.

In my private time, I prefer to switch off my laptop and work with my hands, either doing pottery, balcony gardening or building things from wood.
