Data Journalist

A data journalist at KQED is an accountability-minded journalist who can work together with other reporters to generate impact and real-world change.

We’re looking for a data reporter who is collaborative and is excited to coach and train reporters with different levels of data skills.  A key component of this job will be creating and sharing data products, including visualizations, that power local reporting.  This temporary / on-call position will work on an as needed basis with the KQED reporters and journalists to manipulate and work with data and use it to tell compelling and important stories.

KQED envisions a public media organization with a culture that centers on human dignity, equity, and belonging.

This will enable us to better serve and reflect the Bay Area through diverse and inclusive storytelling.  We value the contributions of marginalized people in society — including Black, Indigenous, and all people of color,  people with disabilities, and LGBTQIA+ people — and we believe that these communities must be centered in the work we do, and we strongly encourage members of these communities to apply.
