About Boltz
Boltz is a public benefit company building the next generation of AI-powered molecular modeling tools to make biology programmable and accelerate drug discovery, while keeping frontier capabilities broadly accessible.
Boltz-1, Boltz-2, and BoltzGen are open models trusted by 100,000+ scientists across biotech and academia, and used in programs at every Top 20 pharma as well as leading agrichemical and industrial research organizations.
We deliver these capabilities through Boltz Lab, our platform for running our latest models and design agents as reliable, production-grade tools. Boltz Lab is designed around real chemistry and biology workflows, so teams can start from a target and a hypothesis and quickly generate, evaluate, and rank candidate molecules.
About the role
As Community Lead, you will be leading the interactions of Boltz within the global scientific and developer community, as well as helping maintain our open-source models.
You will work both on our open-source models and users as well as as our product users, engaging with them, helping them succeed with Boltz models and turning their feedback into insights for product and growth.
This is a highly outward-facing role: you’ll be active in community channels, create technical content, support users, and help shape the culture of the Boltz ecosystem.
You will work closely with the Head of Community & Growth Marketing, product, and research teams to ensure that the community remains engaged, supported, and continuously growing.

Nice to have:

What you’ll do
- Engage daily with the Boltz community across Discord, GitHub, and other channels
- Support users in getting started and troubleshooting issues
- Contribute to the open source models and repositories
- Create technical content (guides, notebooks, videos, demos)
- Help run community programs, events, and activations
- Contribute to building a strong, collaborative community culture
