Podcast Producer for This Week in Startups and This Week in AI
Jason Calacanis' podcast network — home to the long-running and massively influential startup podcast This Week in Startups and the breakout spinoff This Week in AI — is looking for an experienced, diligent, detail-oriented podcast producer to help us continue releasing high-level content and expand our programming line-up.
This is a hands-on production role working directly with our host and content team. Ideal candidates will be local to our studio in Austin, TX, but we will also consider qualified remote applicants.
You are:
- Creative and looking to contribute not just hard work but inspired ideas and fresh insights.
- Obsessed with AI, tech, and the startup scene. (Are you using AI tools daily? Let us know which ones and how they're making you more productive!)
- Eager to dive in and help us make these shows on every level, from booking and research to supervising the edit.
- Very familiar with the process of recording and producing podcasts or professional long-form audio/video content.
- Extremely organized! We move fast, make a LOT of content, and the expectations are high. We're looking for people who can keep up.
What you'll do:
- Develop a content and distribution strategy along with Editorial Director Lon Harris and CEO/Host Jason Calacanis. We're not just looking for technical skill but original thinking and a sharp understanding of the podcast landscape.
- Own end-to-end production on TWiST and TWiAI episodes — from pre-production research, pre-interviews and guest prep, through recording, and into editing and distribution. You're responsible for making sure episodes are up to our quality standard and released on time.
- Help us develop new shows to expand the TWiST and This Week in AI network.
What you'll get:
- Salary: $85,000/year plus benefits.
- Work directly with some of the biggest names in tech, AI, and venture capital.
- Creative freedom to develop new shows and expand our social media strategy.
