About the Role:
We’re looking for an experienced technology reporter to join our fast-paced, lively newsroom. You should have at least four years of newsroom experience and be excited to pitch stories in a variety of formats. We need a dynamic and versatile reporter; you should be able to balance the daily breaking news needs on your beat with long-form investigations.
More than anything, Gizmodo values approaching technology with a critical eye and avoiding the breathless, thoughtless fanfare that can often accompany Silicon Valley innovation. If you’re interested in asking big questions about who is making our technology, how they’re making it, and who it serves, then this job might be for you.
- Have experience working at a major digital or print outlet with strong tech coverage
- At least 4 to 5 years newsroom experience
- Be comfortable writing analysis, breaking news, and investigative features
- Demonstrated ability to break news in a core technology beat
- Experience covering cybersecurity and privacy issues and/or Silicon Valley culture a plus
- Have a go-to network of experts and sources for quick, authoritative comment
- Experience scripting video is excellent, but not required
- NYC- or SF-based reporters preferred
