Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolMichael Schermann is a UX researcher and team lead with nearly a decade of industry experience and over a decade of research practice bridging academia and product teams. He leads mixed-methods studies at SoFi, translating qualitative insights and meta-analytic quantitative work into product direction, and has held research roles at Google, Facebook/Meta, Robinhood and in higher education. His technical toolkit spans Python, R and Swift, enabling him to prototype analyses and visualizations that inform design decisions rather than just reporting them. A former professor and lab principal investigator in Germany, he brings rigorous experimental design and governance-minded thinking to commercial UX problems. Based in Reno, he combines academic depth (Dr. rer. nat.) with hands-on product research, often surfacing non-obvious patterns by combining meta-analysis with user-centered methods. Colleagues know him for turning complex datasets into clear stories that shape cross-functional roadmaps.
