  • Relaunch The Bryan Johnson Podcast from scratch — establish the production workflow, tooling, episode structure, and distribution infrastructure, and get the show back live
  • Own end-to-end episode production from topic ideation through recording, editing, and publishing, ensuring a consistent cadence and high production quality
  • Manage editorial planning — research protocol-based topics, coordinate with Bryan, Kate, and the physician to align on content, and maintain a forward-looking episode calendar that stays strategically relevant
  • Manage and direct a freelance audio editor — briefing edits, maintaining quality standards, hitting turnaround timelines, and serving as the quality control checkpoint before any episode goes live
  • Own distribution across all platforms (Spotify, Apple Podcasts, YouTube, and beyond), including metadata, show notes, timestamps, transcripts, and any LLM-optimized formatting that increases citability and discoverability
  • Track and analyze podcast performance — downloads, retention, audience growth, and platform-specific metrics — and use data to continuously improve content strategy and publishing decisions
  • Coordinate scheduling and pre-production logistics across three hosts with demanding schedules, ensuring recordings happen on time and hosts are prepared

Requirements:

  • 3+ years of experience producing a podcast end-to-end, from pre-production through live distribution
  • Deep knowledge of podcast platforms, publishing best practices, metadata, and distribution optimization
  • Experience managing editorial calendars and aligning multiple stakeholders on content direction
  • Comfortable with podcast analytics tools and confident using data to inform decisions
  • Strong independent operator — this person runs the whole function without hand-holding
  • Experience managing or directing a freelance contractor or vendor, with accountability for their output quality and deadlines
  • ****Preferred Skills:**
  • Experience in health, wellness, longevity, biohacking, or science-adjacent content
  • Familiarity with how structured, citable content gets picked up and cited by LLMs — and how to optimize for that
  • Experience relaunching or standing up a podcast from zero
  • Video podcast production experience
  • Basic audio engineering skills (Descript, Adobe Audition, Hindenburg, or similar)

Benefits:

  • Salary Range: $105-150k + equity + benefits
