Start the Best Work of Your Career at Boom
We’re looking for a Supersonic Evangelist – someone who can help ignite public imagination and build real momentum for the return of supersonic flight. This is not your typical content role. It’s a hybrid of creator, storyteller, and builder. You’ll be on the frontlines creating the narrative and content for Boom and supporting Founder & CEO Blake Scholl. You’ll create compelling content across mediums, including but not limited to things ranging from social-first video to long-form essays, and drive engagement with audiences ranging from aerospace insiders, to tech founders and aviation fans, and to the broader public as well.
Role Overview
You are passionate about supersonic flight and Boom—and create opportunities for others to share your enthusiasm. You’re not just fluent in social media (primarily X) – you live it 24/7 and shape it. You know how to create moments that resonate and build movements that last. You bring a builder’s mindset to storytelling: quick to prototype, obsessed with craft, and able to pivot quickly when needed. You work across mediums as a writer, producer, editor, designer or photographer. Your curiosity fuels your work, and your execution backs it up. You know how to speak to founders, investors, early believers, engineers and avgeeks in a way that makes them want to lean in.
You understand hype, and how to base it in substance and use it effectively, but more importantly, you understand trust. You’re already living at the intersection of tech, storytelling, and curiosity. You’re already an evangelist. Now you’re ready to do it at Mach speed. In this role, you will:
- Build a supersonic movement by creating content across platforms with a focus on X
- Write long-form essays, blog posts, memos, and narrative pieces that capture the mission and vision
- Build relationships and resonance with Boom’s core audiences (investors, policy makers and fans)
- Create high-impact short-form video content — including factory walkthroughs, founder spotlights, and behind-the-scenes moments — designed to humanize hard tech, capture attention, and drive engagement across digital platforms.
- Apply cultural, technological and industry trends that are relevant to Boom
- Identify and collaborate with key influencers that help amplify the Boom story
- Collaborate with internal teams on major announcements, launches, and events, and analyze the results to optimize performance across channels
- Evangelize the return of supersonic flight – and what it means for the future of humanity
The Ideal Candidate
- Exceptional writing and storytelling ability across tone, form, and medium - crafted to engage diverse audiences and elevate ideas into compelling, high-impact communications
- Deep familiarity with digital platforms with a strong focus on X — leveraging real-time conversation, algorithmic dynamics, and platform-native storytelling to grow influence
- Proven ability to consistently deliver high volumes of high-quality content under tight deadlines — combining speed, precision, and editorial excellence to meet the demands of fast-moving, high-stakes environments in the hard tech space.
- Experience shaping narrative and building strategic audiences in the hard tech space — turning complex technologies into clear, compelling stories that drive understanding, excitement, and momentum
- A creator’s toolkit: you can shoot and edit quick videos, record audio, and design simple visuals without compromising on quality
- Bias for rapid action – you’re ready to own the mission and run with it
- Passion for speed, flight, and innovation — driven by the pursuit of supersonic breakthroughs that push the boundaries of technology and propel humanity faster into the future.
