WIRED is where a better future is imagined. For three decades, we have been the indispensable guide to a world in constant transformation. We cover humanity’s biggest challenges, from climate change to global security, from pandemic preparedness to the future of democracy, and tell stories of the people trying to solve these challenges and the role science and technology can play—for good or ill. WIRED reaches more than 30 million people each month through WIRED.com, our digital edition, the magazine, social media, and live events. Job Description Location: New York, NY Senior Writer, Politics— WIRED WIRED seeks an experienced journalist to cover national politics, particularly the Trump administration’s efforts to remake the federal government and how other power centers—Congress, tech oligarchs, and more—are responding. In this role, you’ll be responsible for breaking news consistently. We’re less interested in horse race drama than we are in the people making consequential decisions, whether in the White House, among local and national Democrats, or Silicon Valley, and the logic guiding their actions. To succeed in this role, you should be deeply sourced at both the top and working levels of government and politics and intimately familiar with the operational mechanics of the federal government; you will ideally also have good sourcing in and understanding of the tech industry. You should have a proven ability to deliver scoops, exclusives, and stories that can’t be found anywhere else. We’re interested in hard news and the ability to put new information into a broader context. A large part of this role is writing a politics-focused newsletter every week; the ideal candidate will understand how to leverage their reporting to attract and retain subscribers, engage audiences, and drive reader loyalty in a competitive news landscape.  In addition to breaking news and regular newsletter sends, there are opportunities to work on long-form feature stories and collaborate with reporters across our coverage areas as part of this role as well. You should also be prepared to engage in a wide range of storytelling formats, such as social, podcasts, video series, and live events.  This senior writer will report to WIRED’s Director, Politics, Science, and Security, and will be part of a growing and increasingly global newsroom of smart, kind, collaborative, and well-informed colleagues who are always brimming with ideas and eager to help each other out. This role is in-office (4 days/week) and will be based in our New York or Washington, DC offices. This is a guild position. Primary responsibilities: Break high-impact news and deliver scoops on a regular basis Report and write at least six stories per month, balancing weekly newsletter sends with quick exclusives and longer, differentiated work Engage and grow a loyal newsletter readership that drives digital subscriptions Collaborate with other members of your desk, and journalists from across the WIRED newsroom Collaborate with audio, video, events, and social media teams as needed to develop ways of telling stories on other platforms Work collaboratively with global markets on all relevant stories or packages Additional projects/stories as assigned Requirements: At least 5 years experience as a political journalist with a track record of breaking news,  driving subscriber growth, and building and reaching a large audience A proven track record of scoops and the ability to consistently break news on the national politics beat Strong organizational skills with demonstrated ability to manage a constantly evolving workload and prioritize appropriately A clear, engaging, jargon-free writing style The expected base salary range for this position is from   $95,000-$132,000.
