The Washington Post is seeking a high-energy reporter to cover the rapidly evolving and increasingly symbiotic relationship between Washington and Silicon Valley.
We are looking for an aggressive, versatile reporter who knows how to work sources, explain complex policy decisions for a general audience and seize opportunities to tell the big story about the role the tech titans are playing in President Donald Trump’s Washington. The ideal candidate will have a proven ability to break agenda-setting stories and a familiarity with the basics of tech policy, from antitrust and AI regulation to relations with U.S. allies and adversaries. We seek someone who also can distill complicated ideas into big-picture analysis, conveying with urgency how policy choices made today will move markets, enrich (or impoverish) individual investors – and set fundamental parameters for the future of human interaction.
Responsibilities:
Preferred qualifications:
Interested candidates should upload a cover letter, résumé and three examples of their work (as PDFs) to our jobs portal. Applications will be reviewed on a rolling basis until the position is filled, but those received by Mar. 7 will be prioritized.

The salary range for this position is: $122,500.00 – $204,100.00 USD Annual. The actual salary within this range will depend on individual skills, experience, and qualifications as they relate to specific job requirements.
The Washington Post’s policy for employees is five days per week in the office, with exceptions for newsgathering and general business travel.
