Posted Jul 31, 2019 - Requisition No. 76406

Technology is changing the nature of business and society in Japan. We're seeking an aggressive, creative reporter who can cover developments at the industry's most important companies and dig deep to tell broader stories of how technology is transforming Japanese society and culture.

Who we're looking for:

You're an agile reporter who's able to write quickly and crisply on the most pressing tech issues of the day. You're the type of person who has a knack for quickly coming up with original ideas and smart analysis on the biggest tech stories -- a cogent rundown of the latest development in the business of technology, be it the release of a new gadget, a bankruptcy, a management overhaul or a funding round that elevates an unknown startup into overnight unicorn status. You have an eye for the stories no one else is telling on an intensely covered beat, and versatile enough to write for a variety of platforms, including the Web, Bloomberg terminal and Bloomberg Businessweek magazine.

We'll trust you to:

  • Tell feature length stories about the companies and culture of Japanese technology
  • Break news and uncover exclusive information on your beat
  • Work with other reporters on the technology team and beyond to expand our impact
  • Be committed to the best journalistic practices, sound judgment and a willingness to learn

You'll need to have:

  • Minimum of three years of business and financial journalism
  • Bachelor's degree or equivalent experience
  • An interest in Japan, technology and how the country is evolving

We'd love to see:

  • Experience working in a real-time news environment
  • Fluency in Japanese
