About the company

Blooming Brains India is building The Good Screen: a child first screen platform for young children. We are creating a healthier alternative to passive, addictive, and developmentally weak screen time by combining high quality content, strong pedagogy, AI guided experiences, and offline extensions.

We are looking for a Research Associate who can help build the pedagogy and user insight layer of the app. This person will work closely with the founding team to translate child development research, parent needs, and product insights into content guidelines, learning objectives, AI companion behaviour, prompt architecture, and product experiences for children and parents.

About the role

The Research Associate will support the design of the developmental, pedagogical, and research foundation of The Good Screen. This includes researching early childhood learning, speaking to parents, understanding demand, identifying what families need and do not need, creating content frameworks, reviewing scripts and experiences, supporting prompt design for the AI companion, and helping define what healthy digital engagement looks like for young children.

Key Responsibilities

Research and synthesis

• Conduct research on early childhood development, screen time, children’s media, learning through play, emotional regulation, attention, language development, and parent child engagement.
• Synthesize research into clear, usable notes, frameworks, and recommendations for the product, content, and AI teams.
• Study existing children’s content, apps, shows, and learning platforms to identify what works, what does not, and what The Good Screen should do differently.

User research with parents

• Speak to parents regularly to understand their real needs, fears, habits, frustrations, and expectations around children’s screen time.
• Help design parent interview guides, surveys, discussion prompts, and feedback forms.
• Understand what parents are actively looking for, what they are willing to pay for, what they do not trust, and what problems feel urgent to them.
• Identify demand patterns across different types of families, including working parents, parents of toddlers, parents of preschoolers, and families using screens for different reasons.
• Convert parent conversations into clear insights that can shape product features, content formats, pricing, onboarding, parent controls, and positioning.
• Help the team avoid building only from assumptions by continuously bringing real parent voices into product decisions.

Pedagogy and content design

• Help build age appropriate learning objectives, content categories, developmental indicators, and progression maps.
• Support the creation of content guidelines for stories, audio stories, interactive experiences, videos, activities, and offline extensions.
• Review content ideas, scripts, activities, and product flows from a child development and pedagogy lens.
• Ensure that content is developmentally sound, culturally relevant, emotionally safe, and appropriate for Indian children and families.

Product insight and testing support

• Support parent interviews, expert conversations, child observation studies, and early product testing.
• Help convert research insights into product recommendations and design inputs.
• Create structured notes, insight documents, and summaries from interviews, research calls, and testing sessions.
• Work with the team to identify gaps in the product experience based on evidence, parent needs, child development priorities, and market demand.

Documentation and coordination

• Maintain clear documentation of frameworks, guidelines, research notes, user insights, and product decisions.
• Create simple and well written briefs for the creative, product, and technology teams.
• Coordinate with external advisors, consultants, experts, and parent research participants when needed.

Who We Are Looking For

• Completed bachelors degree in any relevant field
• You should have one to two years of experience in early childhood education, education research, curriculum design, child development, psychology, learning design, user research, or a related field.
• You should have strong written and spoken English.
• You should be comfortable speaking to parents, asking thoughtful questions, listening deeply, and turning conversations into useful insights.
• You should be able to read research, understand it deeply, and translate it into practical product and content guidance.
• You should be curious about children, parenting, technology, AI, and the future of healthy screen experiences.
• You should be comfortable working in an early stage startup where the role will evolve quickly.
• Prior experience with early childhood education, children’s content, curriculum design, qualitative research, parent interviews, or AI tools will be a strong advantage.

Why Join Us

This is an opportunity to help build the foundational pedagogy and user research engine of a new children’s technology company from the ground up. You will work closely with the founding team on a product that sits at the intersection of early childhood development, children’s media, AI, parent trust, and real family needs. The role is ideal for someone who wants to move beyond research reports and contribute directly to the design of a real product for children and families.
