Your focus will be on big-game hunting - getting the scoops and stories that will set Semafor apart.
You'll uncover how AI is restructuring industries and reordering markets, and how governments in Washington, Brussels, and Beijing are rushing to catch up.

five or more years of relevant experience in tech or business journalism, with a demonstrated track record of sourcing deeply inside companies and venture capital

Semafor is a global news platform for an increasingly complex world in which consumers are overwhelmed by too many news sources and unsure what to trust.
We are building Semafor to enable world-class journalists to deliver reporting and insights with rigor in journalistic forms that ensure a new level of transparency.
Our editors and reporters distill the most important stories from all over in formats that uncover the forces shaping the stories, explain the interests behind polarizing narratives, and replenish the stock of shared facts.
As a global platform, Semafor recognizes that smart people can disagree and that informed readers need to understand alternative points of view from competing centers of power and culture in a multi-polar world.
