About X-Bow

X-Bow is a U.S. non-traditional manufacturer of solid rocket motors (SRMs), sub-orbital launch solutions, energetics, composites, and advanced defense technologies. With global stockpiles of critical defense systems rapidly depleting, we are uniquely positioned to accelerate the transition from R&D to full-scale production-delivering scalable solutions at the speed of relevance for national security missions.

As we enter a pivotal growth phase, we are building the team that will define how X-Bow is understood across stakeholders at this critical inflection point.

About This Role

You will work directly with the Head of Marketing & Corporate Communications to build and execute our marketing and communications strategies. This is a unique opportunity for a hands-on, adaptable professional who is fluent-and forward-leaning-in AI-driven marketing and communications tools, and who thrives wearing multiple hats in a fast-scaling environment.

You'll be a utility player, comfortable flexing across media relations, executive communications, content creation, sales collateral, events, and investor relations support. You'll collaborate closely with Business Development, Program Management, and other cross-functional teams. As the team grows, you'll have the opportunity to specialize and help define future roles.

Key Responsibilities

• Leverage AI tools and emerging technologies (e.g., generative content platforms, AI-powered analytics, prompt engineering, workflow automation) to accelerate content creation, audience targeting, and communications workflows
• Help develop and maintain X-Bow's core narrative and messaging across audiences-customers, government, investors, and media-ensuring consistency across all channels and touchpoints
• Draft executive communications including talking points, presentations, announcements, and briefing materials; manage the communications calendar around key company milestones
• Coordinate day-to-day with our PR and creative agencies on timing, messaging, press releases, statements, media responses, and content development across digital channels (website, social media, email)
• Monitor media coverage and flag relevant industry and competitive developments
• Create and maintain marketing collateral, presentations, and event materials in close partnership with Business Development and Program Management teams
• Support trade show, conference, and industry event planning and execution
• Assist in preparing investor-facing materials including presentations, FAQs, and written updates; support coordination and logistics for stakeholder and investor touchpoints
• Support company-wide announcements, leadership updates, and employee-facing messaging in collaboration with team members across the communications function

What We Are Looking For

Required

• Bachelor's degree in Business Administration, Communications, Marketing, Public Affairs, Journalism, Engineering, or a related field
• 5–8 years of experience across marketing, corporate communications, public affairs, or a closely related function
• Demonstrated expertise in AI-driven marketing and communications tools (e.g., generative AI for content, AI-powered analytics, workflow automation), with a proven ability to integrate them into day-to-day workflows and strategy
• Exceptional writer with the ability to shift from a crisp press release to an investor talking point to an internal all-hands message
• Demonstrated ability to manage multiple workstreams simultaneously in a fast-paced, resource-constrained environment
• Comfortable operating at both the strategic and executional level-you can help shape the plan and then go do the work yourself
• Strong instincts for message discipline, brand consistency, and editorial judgment with limited supervision
• U.S. citizenship required (ITAR compliance)

Preferred

• Experience in defense, aerospace, deep tech, or other highly technical industries
• Experience managing PR, creative, or marketing agency relationships
• Exposure to investor relations, government relations, or public affairs functions
• Ability to obtain a U.S. Security Clearance

Growth & Opportunity

This role is intentionally broad. As X-Bow continues to scale and expand its marketing and communications function, this role will evolve. The right person will have the opportunity to shape their own lane and grow into a more senior position as the team grows. You'll be joining at a moment of extraordinary impact and visibility.

We offer a competitive compensation and benefits package, including long-term incentive opportunities.
