Location: Bengaluru (Hybrid, 2–3 days/week in-office)

Duration: 2 months (with full-time conversion track based on performance)

Stipend: ₹10,000–₹20,000/month

About the Role:

Laarish is building India's first phygital profession-discovery toy company. We are a small, fast-moving team running hardware, software, content, and grant-funded operations simultaneously. This is a generalist role built to help the COO manage and scale operations across legal compliance, grant documentation, team coordination, and vendor relationships.

What You'll Do:

1. Documentation & Process: Convert scattered decisions and voice notes into clean SOPs, checklists, and trackers.

2. Cross-Functional Coordination: Track open loops across tech, product, and content teams and chase them to closure.

3. Research & First Drafts: Research vendors, certifications (like BIS), legal requirements, and draft first-cut emails/proposals.

4. Whatever-It-Takes Execution: Take ownership of ambiguous, unassigned problems and use AI tools proactively to move fast.

What You Need:

- Own laptop capable of running standard office and AI tools.

- Ability to work from our Bengaluru office 2–3 days a week.

- Exceptionally strong written English (this role lives in documents).

- Working fluency with AI tools (ChatGPT, Claude, etc.) for research and analysis.

- Comfort with spreadsheets, Google Workspace, and basic tracking tools.

*MANDATORY APPLICATION TEST*

Because this role is about handling ambiguity, we do not want a cover letter. Instead, submit a 1-page response to this prompt along with your resume:

“Pick any real company or product you admire. In one page, tell us one operational problem they probably have right now that nobody's talking about publicly — and how you'd go about figuring out if you're right.”
