We’re looking for a full time (maybe PT if necessary) San-Francisco based tech writer.

You need to be incredibly passionate about technology, startups, entrepreneurship and Internet culture. You’ll be keen to immerse yourself in the SF technology scene – or indeed already be part of it. You’ll enjoy chasing up stories and the people behind them for interviews/comment. You’ll love people, events and developing relationships. You’ll be keen to learn the background to a story, thrive on the details and above all, be passionate about being first to a story.

You should be keen to make a name for yourself within the tech circle but more importantly, interested in being part of the Internet’s fastest growing technology blog and its team of global writers.

Passionate about technology & start-ups
Fast, confident writer.
Natural attention to detail
Natural drive to get to a news story first.
Familiar with the  San Francisco / Silicon Valley startup & tech scene
