Nowadays product designers are expected to do everything including research and a lot of companies (>95%) of them don't require or value researchers because they rely either on past data or competitor's data to validate their ideas. The minimum research they might need gets fulfilled by the product designers/managers. I would suggest skill up and add design to your skill list.
