Growth Intern
Growth Intern – Karri (by Ésquare Lab)
Boston, MA
Please apply through our website only. Applications via Handshake will not be considered.
Karri is a new venture incubated under Ésquare Lab, an investment company that builds and invests in real estate–adjacent and tech-enabled service businesses. One of our core ventures is COZi Living, a furnished rental company serving traveling professionals and academic communities across Boston.
At Karri, we’re building a simple but powerful service: we pick up luggage from the airport and deliver it directly to your Airbnb or hotel—so travelers don’t have to wait around for 4PM check-in. We give people their time back—even when their flight lands at 8AM and they have a full day before check-in.
We’re early, scrappy, and figuring things out fast. If you want a front-row seat to building a real business from the ground up, this is it.
What You’ll Do (aka: Wear All the Hats)
1) Operations (On-the-Ground Work)
- Assist with luggage pickup and delivery across Boston
- Coordinate timing and routes
- Ensure a smooth, reliable customer experience
- Work directly with leadership to identify and fix real friction points in operations
This role trains both your physical and mental muscle. We don’t believe in strategies that live on slides—we believe in learning by doing. You’ll go through the process yourself, understand how things actually work, and help us improve it.
This is a rare chance to shape a venture’s operations from the ground up.
Requirements:
- Driver’s license required (having a car is a big plus)
- Experience with Uber, DoorDash, or similar is a strong plus
2) Social Media & Growth
- Create and test content (Reels, TikTok, short-form video)
- Use AI tools to generate ideas, edit, and scale output
- Experiment and iterate—this is a testing ground, not a rigid system
We don’t expect you to be an expert. Curiosity and initiative matter more.
3) Business Development & Partnerships
- Reach out to Airbnb hosts, property managers, and local partners
- Connect with event and conference organizers for growth partnerships
- Send cold emails, make calls, and help us get meetings
- Support partnerships with buildings, events, and local businesses
Yes, it can be uncomfortable. That’s part of the job.
This is one of the most valuable skills you’ll build—and it shows.
Who You Are
- College student or recent grad
- Hands-on, resourceful, and willing to try things
- Comfortable being uncomfortable
- Interested in startups, operations, or entrepreneurship
- Prefer figuring things out over being told exactly what to do
What You’ll Get
- Real startup experience (not coffee runs)
- Direct exposure to building a business from 0→1
- Ownership and visible impact
- A strong reference if you perform well
- Skills you can actually talk about in interviews
Compensation
- $15–$18/hour (based on experience)
- ~40 hours/week, including occasional weekend support
How to Apply (Read This First)
Please submit your resume with a brief intro through the application link. If you choose to email, send it to: hello@callkarri.com
We’re looking for a short, genuine, email-style intro.
Your intro should briefly include:
- Answers to two quick questions:
- Do you have a driver’s license?
- Do you have a car?
- Why you’re interested
- What you’ve actually done that’s relevant
We’re especially interested in:
- Direct sales experience (yes—even handing out flyers)
- Service industry experience (cafes, restaurants, etc.)
- Social media or growth-related work
Please do not send a generic cover letter—we won’t read it.
We review every application ourselves. We’re not HR trying to hit a number to report back—we’re the people you’ll be working with. We care about real people, real work, and real outcomes.
Your intro doesn’t need to be long. We know you’re applying to a lot of roles—it’s draining. But if this isn’t something you’re genuinely interested in, it’s probably not worth your time (or ours).
Anything counts. Gig work like DoorDash or Uber, managing social media for a family business, running sales for a school club, cold-calling sponsors, organizing events—whatever it is, we want to see how you operate.
GPA doesn’t matter much to us. We’re a team with Ivy League backgrounds—we already know intelligence goes beyond grades. What we care about is whether you have the mindset to operate in an entrepreneurial environment.
If you’ve read this far and are still interested, we encourage you to reach out and tell us your story. We look forward to reading it.
