You should be excited about combining full-stack development with a passion for great journalism.

  • Secret Canada , our freedom of information investigative project
  • A 3D deep dive into Toronto's office vacancy problem
  • A bookmarkable longread on an elite squad of Ukrainian soldiers
  • A visual explainer ahead of breaking's Olympic debut

RESPONSIBILITIES:
  • Take a story or project idea and create a plan for how to design and code it
  • Build and support templates and tools for a variety of digital story forms
  • Collaborate with reporters, editors and visual journalists on immersive, digital-first stories and projects
  • Act as an ambassador for digital storytelling in journalism across the newsroom

QUALIFICATIONS:
  • Experience working with Svelte, Node or AWS services
  • Experience coding in HTML, CSS and JavaScript to create digital stories and news applications
  • A strong design sense, particularly in delivering content to mobile readers
  • An ability to work with data to create interactive visuals that work on all platforms
  • An ability to juggle multiple projects of varying deadlines and sizes
  • An understanding of why accessibility matters in producing interactive experiences for our readers and an ability to audit work to ensure it meets accessibility guidelines
  • Additional skills that would be an asset:
    • Familiarity with mapping software and visualization libraries
    • Familiarity with 3D software like Blender and web-based animation technologies

APPLICATION: Please submit a cover letter with your resume.

SALARY: This position is classified as a Content Editor in Group C of the Editorial Collective Agreement .
