Research Fellow (Remote)

About Us We are a private design studio that builds and supports a portfolio of companies and projects across software, hardware, hospitality, and more. Some of what we build stays in house; We're looking for a Research Associate who can find out anything about anything. Some weeks that means building a competitive matrix across 40 companies. The projects change, the subject matter changes, and the volume varies week to week.

You'll be exposed to a lot of different projects and ideas, and work directly with a highly accomplished leader and team. Run open-ended research projects using the internet as your primary tool: markets, products, companies, funding activity, competitive landscapes, people, technologies, regulation — whatever the question requires.

Build lightweight tools, scrapers, or trackers when a project calls for it.

Juggle several unrelated requests at once and reprioritize when things shift.

0–2 years of experience and a bachelor's degree — a recent grad with strong internship experience and real drive, or 1–2 years into your career and looking for a bigger scope than you have today.

• You live in AI tools — Claude and Cowork, ChatGPT, Gemini, Hugging Face, whatever's newest. Bonus points if you've hit your usage limit more than once.
• Your research is only as good as your ability to communicate it in a page or less.
