The use of random potentials in experiments with ultracold atoms has proven to be a powerful tool to study disordered quantum systems. Here, we present our investigation of the static geometric properties of a harmonically trapped Bose-Einstein condensate of lithium-6 molecules in an optical speckle potential. We measure the in-situ column density profiles and the corresponding transverse cloud widths over many speckle realizations. We compare the measured widths with a theory that is non-perturbative with respect to the disorder and includes quantum fluctuations. In addition, we present a novel method to calibrate the optical speckle potential.
