Silicon Valley Biz Journal seeks tech reporter

The Silicon Valley Business Journal is looking for an aggressive, knowledgable, conscientious reporter to cover the most important technology companies in the world.

The kind of tech themes we love to break news on: The Internet of Things, robotics, artificial intelligence, energy storage. We seek to lead coverage of shifts in the tech industry that challenge the biggest incumbent companies to adapt or fade away — then tell readers why it matters to Silicon Valley. We look to own the conversation about how tech headlines affect the world, the region and the people working in Silicon Valley.

The job is challenging, requiring a reporter who can break news and deliver instant analysis with authority. A desire to use all available storytelling methods and technologies is required.

The right reporter will hunger to build audience by creating superlative work and extending its reach across all channels.

Our newsroom covers all the industries that form Silicon Valley’s business ecosystem: Tech, founders and funders, commercial real estate and economic development. We push our reporters’ digital work across the Web, mobile, email and our weekly print edition.

To apply, go here.
