Bloomberg News is one of the biggest and most influential news organizations in the world. Our Global Technology team leads the way in breaking news about the companies that are changing the world and the people who run them. We’re seeking a talented, aggressive and creative reporter to cover technology on the East Coast, from the thrum of early-morning breaking news to deeper, longer-term stories and projects covering technology themes that span geographies and industries.
Who we’re looking for:
You’re an experienced, agile reporter with a deep knowledge of the technology industry and its most important companies, products and trends.

You are also able to react quickly and write clearly and crisply on the most pressing breaking news of the day, be it the release of a new product, a plummeting or soaring stock, a management overhaul or a transformative acquisition. You’re the type of reporter who has a knack for finding scoops and quickly coming up with original ideas and smart analysis on that news to keep our readers a step ahead of the market. You feel equally comfortable writing quick-turnaround stories that will serve our everyday customers as you do carefully researching and crafting complex, long-form narratives that bring new ideas to light and have a strong and lasting impact.
