Start with the five-company bench contrast before outreach
Google 1121, Meta 634, Microsoft 304, Amazon 222, Uber 30: five records add to 2311. Product Designer and UX Designer stay outside this page's scope.
List scope: spelled-out UX Researcher plus Senior
The seat is spelled-out UX Researcher only; Senior joins the same family. Five exclusive homepage records total 2311 as of 2026-09-23 PT.
Denominator: sum of current UX Researcher profiles across five exclusive company homepage records, as of 2026-09-23 PT.
Google posts the largest figure 1121
Google sets the top of the range. Its own exclusive company homepage record, www.google.com, carries 1121 current UX Researcher profiles as of 2026-09-23 PT. Nobody else in the pack comes close, and because the record is exclusive to Google, that 1121 is not inflated by acquired or parent brands.

Meta posts the contrast figure 634
Meta follows on its own exclusive company homepage record, www.meta.com, with 634 current UX Researcher profiles as of 2026-09-23 PT. Against Google, this rung is narrower under the same seat definition; the difference is bench depth rather than a different scope.

Microsoft and Amazon post the mid figures 304 and 222
Microsoft holds the mid band with 304 current profiles on www.microsoft.com, and Amazon follows with 222 on www.amazon.com, both as of 2026-09-23 PT. The mid band is often the most under-read rung.

Uber posts the close figure 30
Uber closes the tail with 30 current UX Researcher profiles on its own exclusive company homepage record, www.uber.com, as of 2026-09-23 PT. A tail bench is not a dismissal: for hiring moves that need a precise seat picture, 30 is still a reachable, comparable pool.

Five homepage records add 2311
The pack total is 2311 current UX Researcher profiles, the sum of the five exclusive company homepage records: 1121 + 634 + 304 + 222 + 30 = 2311, as of 2026-09-23 PT. Because the five records do not overlap on the seat being counted, the total is a clean addition.

Product Designer and UX Designer do not enter this list
Product Designer and UX Designer titles remain outside the 2311. They may sit beside UX Researcher on the same org chart, but the pack counts only the one spelled-out seat, so the total stays traceable to five exclusive company homepage records as of 2026-09-23 PT.

Methodology
Counting rule for this chapter. Every figure is a count of current profiles on one named company's own exclusive homepage record — Google, Meta, Microsoft, Amazon, Uber — never a rolled-up parent entity. The seat is kept deliberately narrow: spelled-out UX Researcher, with Senior counted in the same family. All numbers share a single as-of date, 2026-09-23 PT. Source: Metix AI.

FAQ
- Why these five companies and not other UX Researcher employers?
- Because each of the five — Google, Meta, Microsoft, Amazon, Uber — has its own exclusive company homepage record, so its bench can be counted directly. Together they hold 2311 current UX Researcher profiles across the five exclusive company homepage records as of 2026-09-23 PT.
- Does the total of 2311 include Product Designer or UX Designer titles?
- No. The 2311 is the sum of current UX Researcher profiles on the five exclusive company homepage records (1121 + 634 + 304 + 222 + 30) as of 2026-09-23 PT; Product Designer and UX Designer titles are counted outside this seat.
- Why does Google sit at 1121 while Uber sits at 30?
- The counting rule is identical for both: current UX Researcher profiles on each company's own exclusive homepage record as of 2026-09-23 PT. Google's record holds 1121 and Uber's holds 30, so the gap reflects bench depth rather than a different scope.
- Can this same UX Researcher seat cut be remade for a company outside the published 2311-person pack?
- Yes. The published UX research peer pack stays fixed at 2311 across the five exclusive homepage records as of 2026-09-23 PT, and the same spelled-out UX Researcher seat can be applied to another company record on request.
