Creative Director – Founding Team Member
About Us
Helios is building the AI-native OS for government interaction. Our first product, Proxi, is already redefining how policymakers, lobbyists, Fortune 500s, and public servants navigate power. We're automating the workflows that define public-private life—and building a platform that will one day be synonymous with governance itself.
We're backed by leading investors and already closing deals with high-impact operators. Our founding team comes from the White House, State Department, Microsoft, and Datadog. Now we’re looking for a creative co-founder in spirit—a master of narrative, virality, and visual culture—to help us write the story of a new American movement.
The Role
We’re hiring a full-time content killer.
This isn’t a typical marketing role. This is an attention command post for the 21st century.
You’ll own how the world sees Helios—from launch campaigns and doc-style founder features to viral drops that drive real inbound and shape public discourse. You’ll direct shoots, obsess over reels, advise the C-suite, and turn raw execution into mass attention. You’ll build a media engine that fuels product adoption and movement-building in the same stroke.
Location: New York City
Key Responsibilities
Lead all creative and content execution across Helios and Proxi
Build viral video campaigns that drive user growth, sales, and influence
Develop Helios’ aesthetic into a visual system people want to imitate
Extract emotion and narrative from policy professionals, founders, and users
Direct video shoots and lead post-production with cinematic quality
Grow and sustain engagement across X, LinkedIn, YouTube, and more
Partner with the executive team to architect moments that shape public conversation
Work backwards from virality—turn attention into market dominance
You Might Be a Fit If You
Are a full-stack content creator: write, shoot, edit, publish
Know what Chiat\Day is—and want to make them look like a footnote
Treat content like a weapon, not a deliverable
Have grown personal or company accounts to serious scale
Can script brand storylines that convert into six-figure contracts
Are obsessed with design, detail, sound, and narrative pacing
Understand American politics, media, and influence deeply
