Old Toronto, Ontario, Canada Investigative Journalism Foundation Full time

About the Investigative Journalism Foundation

The Investigative Journalism Foundation is a leading non-profit newsroom focused on public interest journalism. We are a new kind of media outlet built around databases on who donates to politicians across Canada, who lobbies them, and how the government spends your money.

We are a rapidly growing organization, proud to have been selected for Fast Forward's 2024 Accelerator for tech non-profits. We've also won a Digital Publishing Award in the Data Journalism category and been a finalist for the Institute for Nonprofit News annual awards in the Startup Of The Year category and a finalist for LION Publishers New Business Of The Year.

As a non-profit, non-partisan media outlet, our primary purpose is to serve the public. We do this by publishing in-depth investigative journalism that speaks truth to power. Our databases are also used by other journalists, academics, policymakers, and individuals seeking to increase transparency and strengthen Canadian democracy.

We believe in a collaborative model and are proud to partner with leading media outlets to ensure our non-profit journalism reaches as wide an audience as possible.

About this Job

This is a full-time staff position. Our office and most of the IJF's team are based in Toronto, but we're happy to hear from candidates based elsewhere in Canada.

The position is a great way to collaborate with some of Canada's top data scientists and investigative journalists. We are looking for a player-coach who will manage two full-time developers while also writing code and who is comfortable leading the team as it grows.

Key Responsibilities

  • Expand our existing IJF databases, including Open By Default, the largest collection of internal government documents in Canadian history, and Procurement, our collection of $380 billion in government spending.
  • Build new IJF databases, including Insider Political Trading, a constantly updating tracker of the stocks elected representatives own.
  • Build front-ends for data from our PostgreSQL database.
  • Own the building and managing of our data infrastructure.
  • Work with reporters to convert raw data into stories that hold the powerful accountable and make Canada a better place.
  • Manage internal integration with our content management system.
