Recode seeks Apple reporter

Recode is looking for an San Francisco-based staff reporter to cover Apple.

Your job will be to focus on Apple and its ecosystems (including Apple’s business, people, products, markets, impact, and more), and to produce news articles, features, profiles, analysis, charts, and other creative forms of journalism.

A good candidate will have some experience as a journalist — preferably including digital financial journalism — and fluency using Apple’s consumer products, including the iPhone and Mac.

An ideal candidate will either have some experience developing apps for iOS, analyzing companies’ finances, or have some expertise with China and/or other Asian markets. Another possibility is to focus on Apple while also covering the digital health/medical industry.

Requirements:

  • At least some journalism experience.
  • The ability to deliver clean, accurate copy on deadline.
  • An interest in obsessively covering Apple, its products, and related ecosystems and markets, such as the iPhone app economy, the luxury industry, and/or Apple’s increasing interest in health care and digital health/medicine technology.
  • Attention to detail in reporting, analysis, and writing.
  • The ability to work mostly independently, with support and input from editors and colleagues.
  • A creative, collaborative spirit, comfort trying new ideas, knowing some won’t work.
  • The ability to work from our San Francisco office most days.
  • Some evening and weekend work.

To apply, please submit a resume, cover letter, samples of your work, and a link to an online presence — blog, podcast, Twitter stream, etc. — that you’re proud of.

To apply go here.
