Data Editor
We’re looking for a data editor who can set and execute an ambitious vision for the use of data analysis in the ProPublica newsroom. The editor will do this by guiding data journalists as they co-report our groundbreaking investigations; proactively identifying promising uses of data, including developing pitches and data-driven projects; and guarding against errors. We take on ambitious data projects, from analyzing past Ebola outbreaks linked to deforestation to predict future ones to showing how wealthy executives make millions on exquisitely timed trades and crunching data from millions of child protective services cases to understand who is most affected by the system. We want you to help us continue to innovate and elevate our use of data to do compelling, impactful journalism.
