As part of producing the Bay Area’s fastest-growing news site, SFBay editors sniff out good stories then write short, lively, accurate summaries that bring together multiple sources to add context and perspective. All in about 300 words.

Strong candidates will have a background or education in journalism, a sharp and quick wit, and a sensitivity for stories that get people talking and engage a diverse audience.

You’ll work with other SFBay editors to edit, post and cover key Bay Area stories. SFBay has a vibrant, active virtual newsroom where we gather to assign, edit and discuss stories.

All editorial positions — including interns — are paid on the same per-article basis with rates for both aggregated and original content.
