Position Summary
The Local News Lab is a product team at the Columbia University
Journalism School's Brown Institute for Media Innovation, and we
are focused on empowering local newsrooms and their communities.
With , we're embarking on a new phase of products and services
development to help local newsrooms better understand and, through
data-driven decision-making, better connect with their communities.
Specifically, we're elevating the lab from an academic research
project to an independent, mission-driven business aiming to
transform local journalism. Think of it as a startup inside a
university - we're hoping to match the enthusiasm, drive and
initiative that goes into creating a new venture.
We are looking for a software engineering technical lead excited
about working with local newsrooms, and providing them with sharp,
effective tools and critical technical infrastructure. You'll do
this by working closely with our local newsroom partners to help
shape our product strategy and drive the development of these
products. You'll bring a mindset of engineering excellence to
maintaining existing products and infrastructure and developing new
products. We are also building up our own organizational capacity
with the goal of becoming a self-sustaining organization. So we're
also looking for someone keen to help build out our team and
organization.
This position is dependent on performance as well as the
continuation of funding.
Our team is hybrid remote and in-person in New York City. We work
out of a beautiful space in historic Pulitzer Hall, at Columbia
University, and we believe in the power of in-person connection and
collaboration. We're flexible in what this looks like on a given
day or week, but over the long term, we believe it's essential for
our team cohesion to meet in person frequently.
