Business Insider is looking for an aggressive and experienced tech reporter to join our San Francisco bureau and cover some of the biggest, most exciting companies in the world, as well as the personalities behind the companies.

  • Experience covering a beat, developing sources.
  • Knowledge of the tech industry and solid grasp of corporate financial matters.
  • Ability to write quickly and accurately under deadline.
