Early life

After graduating from Rice, Kubiak joined the Denver Broncos front office in 2014 as a personnel intern.[7] The following year, he was promoted to personnel assistant.[8] In this role he was tasked with evaluating pro prospects, creating advance scouting reports, and scouting colleges in Colorado and Wyoming.[8] The following year, Kubiak was promoted to serve as the Bronco's southwest area scout, a role he remained in through 2018.[9][10][11]
Dallas Cowboys
In 2019, the Broncos chose to not renew Kubiak's contract leading to him taking a job with the Dallas Cowboys as a midwest area scout.[12][13][14] In 2022, Kubiak was promoted to the role of national scout and special projects.[15] In this role, he was charged evaluating top college prospects every year after their initial evaluation by an area scout.[16]
