It sounds like he's maybe looking for a Usability Consultant or User Advocate? I'm not sure if those are real things. But that's the direction I want my career to start going into - looking at products from the perspective of users, and arguing/advocating for what they'll want, finding pain points, try to preemptively find these kinds of things to reduce dev and design time in scoping/building things in a way that won't work for the user - anyway, those are two search strings they might try to look for?
