Company mission
To create the most customer-centric AI company that revolutionizes how enterprise thrive in the AI-assisted economy.
Role
Who you are
- 3–7 years of experience in content creation, technical writing, social media, or a related role
- Agency, startup, media, or independent creator backgrounds all welcomed — what matters most is your body of work, not your title history
- Hands-on social media experience — whether that's a personal presence or owning a company's social profile, you know what it actually takes to grow an audience and make content perform in the wild, not just in theory
- Prior experience in a technical domain (engineering, data, AI/ML) is required
- Bachelor's degree in Communications, Journalism, Marketing, Computer Science, or a related field is a plus
- Exceptional writer — clear, opinionated, and technically credible
- Ability to write in someone else's voice — you can capture a founder's tone and make it sound effortless
- Strong AI fluency: you use AI tools daily and know how to get the most out of them without losing your voice
- Comfortable going deep on technical subject matter and making it accessible
- Self-directed and fast — able to ship without heavy oversight
- Portfolio of writing that demonstrates range: technical depth alongside clear, compelling narrative
- Ability to quickly iterate and adapt to new tools
- Work samples or portfolio required
- Nice to have: existing relationships with reporters and editors covering AI, enterprise tech, or business media
What the job involves
- Distyl AI is hiring a Technical Content Creator who writes with depth, moves fast, and uses AI as a force multiplier
- You'll own our content engine from end to end: long-form technical writing that engineers respect, short-form video that makes top candidates stop scrolling, and a consistent brand voice that makes Distyl impossible to ignore
- This isn't a support role
- You'll have a seat at the table, a direct line to our engineering team, and the latitude to build something from scratch
- Own and drive the content calendar — ideation, scheduling, publishing, and iteration
- Maintain a consistent publishing rhythm of 2–4 quality pieces per month across channels
- Track performance across channels and use data to sharpen what's working
- Partner with sales to ensure content drives qualified pipeline, not just engagement metrics; track which content and channels generate leads
- Own and manage a regular Distyl newsletter that keeps our audience of engineers, executives, and prospects engaged with our latest thinking, product updates, and industry perspective
- Write and edit technical blog posts, white papers, thought leadership pieces, case studies, and presentations
- Translate complex AI/ML concepts into content that both engineers and executives actually want to read
- Develop and maintain Distyl's brand tone of voice across all written channels
- Own Distyl's LinkedIn company page and support executive profiles
- Produce authentic, DIY short-form video content — filmed on your phone, not a film set
- Develop creative video concepts and scripts from scratch, and pull in teammates, engineers, or founders to bring ideas to life on camera
- Build content that drives recruiting interest and brand awareness among technical audiences — attracting top-of-funnel candidates is a real goal, not an afterthought
- Experiment relentlessly
- Support events and conferences to build relationships with the technical community
- Own and manage Distyl's video presence end to end — from short-form social clips to longer-form technical explainers — scripting, filming, and editing
- Partner directly with our PR agency to align content with media strategy, support campaign execution, ensure a consistent narrative across owned and earned channels, and draft press releases and media pitches
- Ghostwrite executive content across formats — LinkedIn posts, op-eds, bylined articles, award submissions, and speaking abstracts — for the CEO, co-founder, and other executives; you can capture a founder's voice and make it sound effortless
- Develop and nurture direct relationships with journalists and analysts covering AI and enterprise tech
