Company Information

GameCrew LLC is seeking a Growth and Community Research intern. We’re building an early-stage startup focused on helping people connect in real life around sports. Think watch parties, alumni groups, fan communities, and cities where people are looking for their people.
 
This is a hands-on, founder-led internship where you’ll help shape our early growth strategy, not just execute tasks.

Qualifications

  • No startup experience needed. Curiosity and follow-through matter more
  • Organized and comfortable working independently
  • Can communicate clearly and summarize what you find
  • Interested in startups, marketing, or community-driven products
  • Enjoy research and pattern-spotting
  • Like sports, communities, or culture (you don’t need to be a superfan)

Duties

  • Research alumni groups, fan communities, and chapters across major U.S. cities
  • Identify where sports fans are already organizing (alumni groups, Reddit, Facebook, LinkedIn, events)
  • Participate in weekly 30–45 minute strategy sessions with the founder to brainstorm growth ideas and decide what to test next
  • Summarize findings and patterns to inform weekly strategy decisions
  • Create simple social content and event visuals using Canva (multiple per week)
  • Compile and organize lists of high-potential groups and cities
