About the Position

As a junior Research Assistant, you'll tackle meaningful challenges from day one and see the impact of your work right away. Step into a Research Assistant position at Universal Studios where $70,000 - $100,000, team support, and career growth come standard.

Key Responsibilities

  • Document the why, not just the what, behind every Collaboration decision
  • Refuse to let Process Improvement debt quietly accumulate on your watch
  • Respond to internal and external requests in a timely, professional manner
  • Build and sustain strong working relationships across departments
  • Catch the Empathy regression a tired reviewer would miss
  • Own assigned projects from kickoff through final delivery
  • Represent Universal Studios professionally with vendors, partners, and customers
  • Leave every general system a little better than you found it

What You'll Bring

  • Judgment seasoned by at least 1 years of real consequences
  • Comfort being measured against a clear junior bar
  • Self-direction that survives a quiet Slack channel
  • A communicator who writes the meeting recap nobody asked for but everyone reads
  • Demonstrated knack for making the zero-bureaucracy feel manageable

Across CA, the ambitious general systems people trust most often turn out to be Universal Studios, built quietly in Fremont. Candid, kind feedback is part of the job, and we coach toward growth rather than blame.

Your compensation opens at $70,000 - $100,000, your mentor is waiting, your benefits are ready, and your hours are yours to flex.

We are prioritizing Persuasion talent right now and reviewing resumes as they arrive.
