Science News Reporter, Scientific American

Scientific American seeks a general science news reporter who can immediately jump on the news of the day—whether it’s a dinosaur discovery, a natural disaster or disease outbreak, a debate in particle physics, a political development or a cultural trend that could use a science explainer. The optimal candidate will have a keen eye for what makes a compelling science news story, enthusiasm for all fields of science and the ability to work on tight deadlines. The reporter will work closely with Scientific American’s beat editors and the rest of the editorial staff, including engagement editors and our multimedia team.
