What you will own
Research quality, end-to-end. From the first brief call to the final debrief, you set the bar. You review AI outputs with a researcher’s eye, enrich findings, and ensure every report earns client trust.
Study design and scoping. You help clients turn business questions into sharp research briefs. You advise on methodology, sample, market selection, and moderation approach, including what the AI needs to do well.
Client relationships that compound. You become the person clients want on their next study before the current one is over. You build long-term partnerships with insights, marketing, and product leaders who see Verso as their go-to research engine.
Our methodology and product direction. You feed the product team with real constraints, gaps, and opportunities you observe across studies. You help define what our AI should do better, and help articulate what makes our approach genuinely different.
The standard for how we operate. You build the frameworks, templates, and quality rituals that scale as Verso grows. You are not a lone expert; you are building a function.
You are genuinely curious about what AI changes for our field, not just as a tool but as a methodological shift
You thrive in ambiguity, move fast, and care about the craft of research more than the comfort of process
Fluent in French and English; additional languages are a real plus given our market footprint
This role is for you if:
- You care deeply about the craft of qualitative research and want to redefine it in the age of AI
- You’re excited by a blank page and the idea of setting the standard, not following one
This role is not for you if:
- You’re looking for a purely executional role with clear processes and limited ambiguity
What makes this role unusual
- You join when the product is young enough that your instincts will shape its direction
- You will work on studies that span across industries
- You will sit at the table when we decide how AI-assisted qualitative research should work, not just use a tool someone else designed
- You are an early member of a team building the Consumer Intelligence OS for global brands. That means real ownership, real impact, and a trajectory that grows with Verso.
Founded in 2025 by Lydia Bellahouel (CEO) Camille Epitalon (CTO),
Verso is backed by Hexa (eFounders), the pioneer startup studio in Europe, having launched 35+ companies, including unicorns like Front, Aircall and Spendesk combining €230m+ ARR and €750m raised.
Verso is rewriting the rules of consumer research, in a market that is being highly disrupted by AI. We need the person who defines what great looks like when AI conducts the interviews and humans ask better questions.
About Verso & who we are
Verso is an AI-native consumer research platform. Our AI conducts 1:1 qualitative interviews at scale in any language, then analyzes transcripts into structured, actionable reports in under a week, at a fraction of traditional cost. We serve global brands across the world.
We are a small team with high standards and a clear thesis: consumer research has been broken for decades, and AI is finally the right tool to fix it.
Verso was founded by Lydia & Camille. Lydia spent 7 years at BCG leading AI-powered transformation for CPGs and knows the pain inside out. Camille is an AI expert and pioneer in agentic systems. Together, they decided to build Verso to turn consumer understanding into a real-time competitive advantage for all of their clients.
