  • Work quickly and efficiently under tight deadlines.

Requirements:

  • Expert ability with GIS software and tools including ArcGIS and/or QGIS.
  • Strong ability to identify, apply, and analyze geographic information from a variety of sources.
  • Expert ability with HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, and its libraries, especially D3.
  • Skilled in the use of mapping APIs and up to date with digital and web-based mapping software and trends.
  • Strong ability in data analysis and associated tools such as Excel, Access, SQL, R, and Python.
  • Prior experience in a newsroom, or equivalent experience.
  • Excellent visual skills, including demonstrable design knowledge, such as layout, typography, color, and interaction design.
  • Fluency with Adobe tools.
  • At least one or two specialties that might include design, 3D, animation, or data visualization.
  • Good knowledge of responsive design, the technical nuances of the digital landscape, and best practices for building stories for mobile devices.
  • A creative vision and willingness to share and collaborate on new ideas.
  • The initiative to take on and learn new tasks.
