The Wall Street Journal is looking to fill one of its key technology beats: cybersecurity.
This beat encompasses the technological, financial and societal pressures of cybersecurity on consumers, companies and policy makers as they wrestle with everything from low-level hacking to state-sponsored attacks. The beat is broad and intensely competitive, requiring effective source development in white- and black-hat communities, among researchers and consultants, and in the growing digital-security industry.
The successful candidate will be an aggressive critical thinker, one who can master a complex subject and separate hype from reality. The candidate must also deftly juggle the frequent demands of news with the ability to identify and execute investigative and insightful enterprise that will maintain the Journal as a coverage leader.
This reporter must also be a serial collaborator with colleagues in Washington, New York and around the globe, as this story only gets bigger over time.
The position is based in San Francisco.
Online applications should include a cover letter, resume and up to five published clips.
