Who you are:


We are always looking for amazing talent who can contribute to our growth and deliver results! Geotab is seeking a Strategic Growth Research Operations Intern who will support research execution for our early stage strategic bets, from sourcing hard-to-reach research candidates to experimenting with different methods/tools in support of various Lean research methods. If you love technology, and are keen to join an industry leader — we would love to hear from you!


What you'll do:


As a Strategic Growth Research Operations Intern, your key area of responsibility will be accelerating Lean Startup / Customer Development research for early-stage strategic bets driven by experimentation and outcomes-orientation. This includes: trialing and evaluating research recruitment methods (external recruitment tools, surveys, in-app options, among others) to identify efficient pathways to target participants; managing interview coordination and follow-up to convert outreach into completed research sessions; supporting logistics-intensive hands-on pilots with external customers and internal employees; and conducting desk research to inform discovery efforts. You'll also explore how generative AI—including Gemini Gems and Claude Agent Skills—can scale research operations across planning, execution, and analysis. You will work closely with the Product Research Operations team, contributing to shared capacity while developing processes tailored to the distinct challenges of strategic research where target customers may be harder to reach or don't yet exist.


To be successful in this role you must have: strong organizational and follow-through skills to manage multiple recruitment touchpoints simultaneously; comfort with ambiguity and experimentation as you test different approaches; curiosity about AI tools and how they can augment research workflows; and clear written communication to document processes and coordinate with stakeholders.


The opportunity:



  • 4 month work-term beginning May 2026.

  • Full-time, paid internship: Monday - Friday, 37.5hrs/week.

  • Your first week at Geotab begins with 'GEO Launch' - a one-week Employee Orientation. Click here to learn more!

  • Learn more about the Geotab Campus Program here.

  • This posting is for an existing vacancy.


How you'll make an impact:



  • Research Recruitment Optimization: By trialing and evaluating different research recruitment methods—which may include external recruiting tools, survey platforms, and in-app options—this role will identify the most effective pathways to reach target interview volumes while measuring time and cost efficiency.                                             

  • Interview Coordination & Follow-up: Managing the end-to-end recruitment workflow from initial outreach to scheduled session, including responding to participant replies, coordinating calendars, and ensuring follow-through. This role will explore how AI automation can streamline these manual touchpoints.

  • Pilot Program Logistics: Supporting the execution of hands-on pilots with external customers and internal employees by coordinating schedules, communications, materials preparation, and participant tracking—ensuring smooth delivery of logistics-intensive research initiatives.

  • Desk Research & Discovery Support: Conducting foundational desk research to accelerate strategic discovery efforts, gathering market intelligence, competitive context, and background information that informs early-stage product bets.

  • AI-Assisted Research Enablement: Optimizing the use of generative AI across the research lifecycle—from planning through analysis and stakeholder communication—including developing and refining Gemini Gems and Claude Agent Skills to scale research capabilities.

  • Process & Tooling Documentation: Creating replicable templates, workflows, and documented processes tailored to the unique challenges of early-stage and strategic bet research—where customers may be harder to reach or don't yet exist—enabling scalable recruitment practices distinct from incremental innovation research. 


What you'll bring to the role:




  • Ongoing studies in Business, Marketing, Psychology, Human-Computer Interaction, Communications, Information Science, or related disciplines.                                                                                              

  • Strong organizational skills with the ability to manage multiple recruitment touchpoints and follow through on participant coordination.

  • Comfort with ambiguity and experimentation—you're energized by testing different approaches and iterating based on results.

  • Excellent written communication skills for outreach, documentation, and stakeholder updates.

  • Curiosity about AI tools and how they can augment workflows; prior experience with generative AI (ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude) is an asset.

  • Attention to detail when tracking recruitment metrics, coordinating logistics, and documenting processes.

  • A proactive, self-directed approach—you take initiative rather than waiting to be told what to do next.

  • Interest in customer research, product strategy, or innovation; prior exposure to user research methods is an asset but not required.



If you got this far, we hope you're feeling excited about this role! Even if you don't feel you meet every single requirement, we still encourage you to apply.
