Fortune seeking deputy tech editor

Fortune is looking for a technology editor to help direct its award-winning coverage for its website, tablet and print magazine.

The editor will oversee staff and freelance contributors who write a range of breaking news and analysis pieces on the biggest companies and topics in the tech industry. Candidates should have excellent communication and organizational skills, and a strong ability to track, plan for, and help shape coverage around major tech news.

The job is about 70 percent digital, 30 percent print, so it’s important that candidates have experience as a daily web editor.

The editor will be in charge of posting 4-5 stories a day online, and assigning and editing the tech section in each issue.

This person will also have a hand in shaping Fortune’s evolving web site and mobile products.
