Boston, MA

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.

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
• 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 to 1
• Ownership and visible impact
• Skills you can actually talk about in interviews

Compensation

• $15–$18/hour (based on experience)
• ~40 hours/week, including occasional weekend support
