About the Team: The Licensing Research Team is a newly-formed team that will be responsible for identifying, documenting, and interpreting the licensing requirements that apply to service professionals across the United States—at the state, county, and city levels. The team will play a foundational role in our platform’s operations, helping to ensure that only skilled service providers are performing work through our platform.

Responsibilities

What you’ll do: As the Licensing Research Team Lead, you’ll conduct deep regulatory research to uncover licensing requirements for various home service trades across states, counties, and cities. At the same time, you’ll help lead the day-to-day work of a small team—offering guidance, reviewing output, answering questions, and helping to refine our research process. This is a hands-on role for someone who loves digging into complexity, thinking critically, and supporting others in doing the same.

Independent Research:

• Develop a deep understanding of our task taxonomy and the broader Angi ecosystem, and map licensing requirements to specific services offered on the platform.
• Conduct licensing research across federal, state, and local jurisdictions for a wide variety of home service tasks.
• Interpret statutes, administrative codes, and government websites to determine what licenses are required, by whom, and under what conditions.
• Make clear, defensible decisions when information is ambiguous or conflicting, and document reasoning in a structured format.
• Reach out to government agencies or trade experts as needed to verify unclear information.

Team Guidance:

• Serve as the go-to resource for other researchers when they hit roadblocks or need clarification.
• Review research outputs for accuracy, completeness, and clarity.
• Help onboard and train new researchers in tools, methods, and decision framework.
