Entrepreneur in Residence

Entrepreneur in Residence (Remote)

EcoPackables is a fast-growing U.S.-based sustainable packaging company working with some of the world’s leading brands.

We’re looking for a scrappy, entrepreneurial, AI-native individual who wants to help build and grow a business.

This isn’t a traditional corporate role. We’re looking for someone who thinks like a founder, loves figuring things out, and gets excited about turning ideas into results.

You’ll work directly with the founder across growth, business development, and other strategic initiatives, with significant freedom to experiment and take ownership.

What You’ll Do:

• Develop creative strategies to generate interest and new business opportunities.
• Experiment with B2B growth channels, including LinkedIn, cold email, cold calling, AI-powered prospecting, and automation.
• Identify potential customers, build relationships, and help turn opportunities into business.
• Research, test, and implement new growth strategies, tools, and business ideas.
• Use AI and automation to make our operations, marketing, and outreach more effective.
• Work directly with the founder on growth initiatives and other business projects.
• Potentially travel to meet customers, attend trade shows, and develop business relationships (depending on the candidate).
• Jump into whatever needs to get done. We’re a small team, and everyone wears multiple hats.

Who We’re Looking For:

• Entrepreneurial: You think like an owner, take initiative, and want to build something meaningful.
• AI-native: You use AI tools daily and constantly experiment with new ways to work smarter.
• Scrappy and resourceful: You don’t wait for instructions. You figure things out and make things happen.
• Growth-minded: You genuinely enjoy finding creative ways to grow businesses and acquire customers.
• Excellent communicator: Strong written and spoken English, with confidence speaking to potential customers.
• Execution-focused: You’d rather test 10 ideas than spend weeks planning one.
• Comfortable getting your hands dirty: You’re willing to cold call, prospect, research, and do whatever it takes to move the business forward.

Previous experience in startups, growth, business development, or entrepreneurship is a plus, but we care much more about your ability to execute, learn quickly, and deliver results.

Why Join Us?

You’ll work directly with the founder of a growing U.S. company, gain hands-on experience across multiple areas of the business, and have the freedom to experiment with new ideas.

This is an opportunity for someone who wants to operate like an entrepreneur, take real ownership, and grow alongside the company.
