Job Description

In-House Entrepreneur – AI & Technology Innovation
Company: Basement Kings USA
Location: Roanoke or Lynchburg, VA (In-Person)
Job Type: Full-Time or Internship-to-Full-Time
About Basement Kings USA
Basement Kings USA is a rapidly growing foundation repair and basement waterproofing company operating across the Southeast and Midwest. We’ve grown more than 4x in the past year and we’re just getting started.
We serve both residential and commercial customers across Virginia, North Carolina, Ohio, and Georgia. Our culture is fast-paced, hands-on, and built around people who take initiative and like to execute on ideas.
About the Role
This is not a traditional job as so much of an opportunity to operate like an in-house entrepreneur.
You’ll work directly with local leadership to understand how the business runs from the ground up, spending time in the field with sales reps and production crews, and in the office across sales, marketing, operations, and finance.
From there, your job is simple in theory (but challenging in practice):
Find problems. Build solutions. Make the business and our amazing team better.
A major focus of this role will be identifying opportunities to leverage AI, automation, and technology to improve efficiency, communication, and scalability across the company.



What You’ll Actually Do
  • Ride along with sales reps and production crews to understand our process end-to-end
  • Identify manual, repetitive, or broken workflows and propose technology-driven solutions
  • Research, test, and implement AI tools across sales, customer communication, scheduling, and other functions
  • Document what works, kill what doesn't, and move to the next problem


Who We’re Looking For
  • Genuine interest in both technology and how businesses make money
  • Comfortable being in the field, talking to people, not just sitting behind a screen
  • Self-directed, detail-oriented, and willing to work in an environment where the playbook is still being written
  • Experience with AI tools (ChatGPT, Claude, Zapier, etc.)
Bonus (Not Required):
  • Exposure to sales, operations, or small business environments

Logistics
  • Location: Roanoke or Lynchburg, VA (regular travel between offices and job sites)
  • Schedule: Full-Time or Internship
  • Compensation: $40,000 – $50,000/year (based on experience)

Why This Role Is Different
Most entry roles and internships teach you tasks and have you handle the mundane. This role lets you be the entrepreneur and innovate inside a real and growing business.
 We are an equal opportunity employer. We are committed to fostering a diverse and inclusive workplace. All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, disability, protected veteran status or any other characteristic or status protected by federal or state laws.

 

Basement Kings USA

Basement Kings USA is a group of owner-operators who work together as true partners. We run strong local businesses while helping each other grow without losing what makes us great. Our approach is simple: keep proven leaders in place, support them with best-in-class tools, and centralize the parts of the business nobody wants to deal with: HR, payroll, marketing, finance, and other back-office work, so our teams can stay focused on serving customers and executing in the field. We’re building a fast-growing group of committed owners and operators who want to deliver for their customers, give their employees more resources and stability, and create real long-term upside for themselves and their families.
