Quartz seeks a business reporter

Quartz seeks a reporter to help us commit acts of journalism with code.

You would be part of the growing Quartz Things team, which is chiefly responsible for our data-driven and visual journalism, from charts to interactive graphics to news apps. “Thing” is simply our catchall term for stories that break free of the traditional article format to convey information in ways that work better on the web. Developing those new storytelling methods—and empowering others to use them, as well—is the challenge of this job.

We are looking for someone with a background in one or more of these fields: frontend web development, systems administration, statistics, data science, design, writing, and information architecture. Don’t worry—no one covers all of that ground. We’re building a well-rounded team with a range of experience. Tell us what you would add, including skills that aren’t mentioned here.

To apply, please submit a cover letter, resume, and five links to relevant work. The links matter most.

Quartz is a business news venture of Atlantic Media at qz.com.
