2002–2006: Early career

Born in Slaton, Texas, Boreing started his career at a local regional theatre, the Garza, as a writer and producer. In 2002, he met future writing partner Joel David Moore, a friend of a friend. He moved to Los Angeles in the mid-2000s to work as a film producer and screenwriter. His first job in Hollywood was with Zachary Levi and Eric McCormack, for a television pilot with Big Cattle Productions.

In June 2006, Boreing joined Kurt Schemper, Joel David Moore, and Zachary Levi to form Coattails Entertainment, a film production company. He produced and co-wrote the company's first feature film, Spiral, with Moore who also directed alongside Adam Green. That same year, he produced the comedy film Etienne!.

2013–2025: The Daily Wire

In 2013, Boreing and Ben Shapiro founded the now-defunct conservative website TruthRevolt, which criticized U.S. media and was funded by the David Horowitz Freedom Center.

In 2015, Boreing and Shapiro founded The Daily Wire and began producing the first few episodes of The Ben Shapiro Show podcast from Boreing's pool house. Boreing, who served as co-CEO, was jokingly referred to as the "god-king" of The Daily Wire by some staff and fans. Boreing has been a contributor behind the scenes for PragerU, which produces conservative internet videos. According to PragerU co-founder Allen Estrin, Boreing "came up with the site's signature visual style after a photographer came after them with a fair-use claim; their solution was to use illustrations instead." Boreing served as Executive Director of Friends of Abe, a low-profile networking organization for Hollywood conservatives founded by Gary Sinise. During his tenure as executive director, Boreing refused to give the Internal Revenue Service access to the section of the organization's website that would identify its members, saying such access was not required by federal law.

In November 2021, The Daily Wire, the company for which Boreing served as the chief executive officer, filed a lawsuit challenging the President Joe Biden OSHA vaccine mandate in federal court, on appeal in the United States Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit. The Daily Wire was successful, as the Supreme Court in January 2022 blocked the Biden administration policy in a 6-3 ruling. Boreing has capitalized on the backlash against businesses perceived as "woke" by launching conservative alternatives. After Harry's razors pulled its Daily Wire advertisements due to what they saw as "hate speech" in 2021, Boreing launched an "I Hate Harry's" campaign and released his own subscription brand of razors, Jeremy's Razors. As a protest against Hershey's inclusion of a transgender woman in an advertisement for its limited edition "HER for SHE" chocolate bars in honor of International Women's Day, Boreing launched Jeremy's Chocolates in May 2023.

In March 2024, Boreing fired Candace Owens from The Daily Wire after Owens made multiple remarks that were deemed antisemitic. In the aftermath of Owens' departure, Boreing participated in an online BlazeTV audio show with Nick Fuentes, who defended Owens' use of the phrase "Christ is King". Boreing, who has used strong language to condemn Fuentes, told him that he was "one of the most talented people out there", which only makes Fuentes a bigger threat than he would otherwise be.

In March 2025, it was reported Boreing would step down as co-CEO of The Daily Wire to focus on producing creative content for the company. According to a 2026 interview, he negotiated an end to his partnership at The Daily Wire because of a shift in priorities, and his desire to focus on film and TV projects.
