What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can lead survey programming end-to-end—building complex multi-country studies, applying MaxDiff/Conjoint/Bridge methods, mentoring teams, and maintaining rigorous data quality while using Power BI for stakeholder insights.

I’m a Senior Survey Programmer with 5+ years of experience in market research and survey programming, building end-to-end, error-free survey experiences at scale. I’m proficient in Decipher, Python, XML, and jQuery, and I apply advanced research methodologies like MaxDiff, Conjoint, and Bridge Surveys.

At GLG, I lead cross-functional collaboration across NA, APAC, and EMEA to design and program multi-country questionnaires. I also mentor junior programmers, run Decipher scripting workshops, and coordinate with project managers to translate technical requirements into reliable survey builds.

I’m recognized as Best Employee of the Year 2025 & 2024 for outstanding performance and contributions. I strengthen survey quality through rigorous data validation and transformation, advanced quota management (including Leastfill and Quota Hooks), and Power BI-driven data visualization to support stakeholder reporting.
