Job description

About Volta

Volta is the category-defining, fully vertically integrated AI infrastructure platform – from capital to clusters to software, under a founder-led enterprise. Our mission is The Utility of Compute™: AI infrastructure as dependable and available as electricity, for every organization that needs it. Launched with a $10B strategic partnership with one of the leading frontier AI labs, a Series A led by Andreessen Horowitz, and a $5B AI Infrastructure Fund, Volta is building the infrastructure layer of the AI era from the ground up. We are 100+ people across London, Palo Alto, and New York, with rapid growth expectations to hundreds.

About The Role

Volta is creating a new category in AI infrastructure – The Utility of Compute – at a moment when most buyers still think in terms of GPU availability and price, not financing models and capital structure. Changing that belief is a writing and storytelling problem before it’s a distribution problem: we publish a small number of genuinely authoritative pieces a year rather than running a high-volume content mill, and this role is the person who writes and shapes most of it, then carries it everywhere it needs to go – LinkedIn, our blog, press, and community.

You’ll report to our Director of Marketing and take over the always-on content and social cadence he currently runs solo – with real ownership over what gets written, not just how it gets distributed. This is a high-visibility role for someone who wants to shape the public identity of a fast-scaling AI infrastructure company.

What You Will Be Doing

Content & Storytelling – the core of the role

• Write and ghostwrite the majority of Volta’s public content – LinkedIn posts, blog pieces, and thought leadership – in the voice of our CEO, CPO, and other executives, not just your own.
• Own the blog and content calendar end to end, including our flagship long-form pieces and ongoing category-education content.
• Build a repeatable content production pipeline – briefs, drafts, review cycles, approvals – so a strong publishing cadence doesn’t depend on any one person.
• Maintain a consistent brand voice and visual identity across everything we publish.

Social & Community

• Own the always-on LinkedIn cadence across the company page and every executive profile, on a defined publishing rhythm.
• Define and build out our community strategy – developer, customer, or broader brand community – in direct partnership with leadership.
• Track share of voice against other players in the AI infrastructure space.
• Track and report on social and community engagement metrics, refining strategy based on performance.

Press & Brand

• Manage day-to-day press relationships, coordinating with our PR agency to help pitch and place stories.
• Own the analyst and industry-influencer engagement calendar.
• Partner with leadership to prepare talking points, statements, and messaging for planned public moments and announcements.
• Lead rapid-response triage for anything that surfaces in social or press that needs a same-day read from leadership – the reactive counterpart to the planned messaging prep above.

What You Bring

• 5+ years in B2B tech comms, social, or content marketing – ideally with real executive ghostwriting experience, not just managing a content calendar.
• A strong personal writing portfolio – this role is judged on the quality of what you write as much as how consistently it ships.
• Demonstrated experience building an always-on content program from scratch, not just executing an existing playbook.
• Experience building and growing an engaged online community from the ground up
• Prior press or analyst relations exposure, ideally in infrastructure, cloud, or deep tech.
• Comfort operating with minimal existing infrastructure in a fast-moving, pre-Series-B environment, and working closely with executive leadership on public-facing messaging
• Track record of using engagement metrics and data to refine content and community strategy
• Highly organized and able to manage multiple channels and priorities simultaneously
