Journalist in Residence
Editor Job 23 miles from Alameda
Instrumental technology is used by the world's most admired electronics brands like Bose, Cisco, and SolarEdge to significantly reduce the 20 cents of waste in every dollar spent on manufacturing. Our technology leverages AI from data coming off of the manufacturing floor to automate failure identification and resolution - improving yield, quality, and time to market.
AI will transform manufacturing-the question is when and who. Part of Instrumental's marketing strategy has been to build the premier knowledge brand in the market: Build Better. The Build Better brand includes a handbook, print magazine, newsletter, webinars, and live events. The topics and content are timely and authentic - agitating the pain of our customers while recognizing and profiling leaders in our space. Most of the content comes from me (our CEO) - which keeps it authentic and on the pulse, but is not scaleable.
Instrumental is looking to hire a “Journalist in Residence” to scale our Build Better efforts - to create and pitch ideas, trendjack timely topics, develop sources to interview or engage with in events, and to produce high-quality journalistic content in written and other formats. You'll work closely with our marketing team, internal subject matter experts, and C-Suite to drive organic audience growth and make Build Better the 100 lb gorilla in the electronics manufacturing knowledge-sphere.
What You'll Be Doing:
Pitch the “right” ideas and be agile. You have your finger on the pulse of the electronics manufacturing zeitgeist. You know what VPs of engineering and operations are thinking about right at this moment and can devise compelling and authentic content ideas to agitate their pain points.
Make a plan; be agile. You can lay out a compelling content plan and execute against it - but you can also turn on a dime to get Build Better's story out first when there's a development that impacts our users and customer personas. You can come up with creative ideas to trend-jack that delight and engage our audiences.
Develop sources and tap them for stories, interviews, and information. While you'll be able to tap into the company's strong network, you will build your own network of sources to leverage in creating content - either on background or in direct interviews.
Write compelling stories and articles that are knowledge-first for print, web, and other media. This is
not
a content marketing role; we're writing knowledge content for a technical audience who can sniff out BS from a mile away. The strategy is to be the go-to place for information no one else covers journalistically, and only mention Instrumental technology where it's on the nose. You'll set a new standard for clarity, meatiness, and storytelling in our content. This is
not
a ghost-writing or executive communications position.
We're Looking for Someone Who:
We believe qualified candidates from this role might never have held a position with a title anywhere near this one (because I literally made it up) - or have never considered working outside of a large media publisher. Here's what I think it will take:
Fluency in the electronics manufacturing industry. Our core personas are VPs of engineering and operations, mechanical engineers, process engineers. We focus on high-volume electronics (consumer and B2B), networking and data centers, and defense. This is non-negotiable.
Ability to write high-quality, direct prose that our personas find credible.
Proven ability to build or work your network to find sources when one doesn't readily present itself.
Has a knack for identifying story ideas that will resonate in the zeitgeist. Asks great questions.
Bonus: You are an engineer by training, have former professional experience covering electronics supply chain as a journalist, or have been a founder in the hardware space.
This role is unique because we would consider a broad range of seniority. The following is a representative annual base salary range for the mid-level within the Bay Area: $120,000 - 145,000. Job level and salary opportunities are evaluated through our interview process-we review each applicant's experience, knowledge, skills, and abilities.
Instrumental is proud to offer a highly-rated variety of benefits, including health, vision, dental, commuter plans, and parental leave.

You'll be asked to edit consistently at a high level, demonstrating expertise of grammar and style. You'll also conceive solutions to common copy problems and help to implement them. You'll also need to understand when to escalate issues and when to solve them at the individual or team level.
Why SFGATE?
Launched in 1994, SFGATE.com was one of the first large-market media sites in the world and served as the exclusive digital home of the San Francisco Chronicle for 19 years. In 2019, the Chronicle (which can now be found online at the paywalled sfchronicle.com) and SFGATE officially became two separately run entities with their own editorial staffs and independent newsrooms.
Today, SFGATE is a digital-only publication that reaches more than 28 million readers every month and tells the stories of the people, places and ideas that make San Francisco, and the Bay Area at large, the weird and wonderful place that it is. We help readers navigate their day, whether it's by keeping them updated on big breaking news, guiding them to interesting local experiences or sharing a part of the Bay Area they haven't seen before.
The site is home to nine verticals: Culture, offering a unique mix of the entertainment news you actually need and the underground stories from hidden corners of the Bay Area you want; Local, the premier destination for everything that life in San Francisco encompasses (from wildly expensive real estate to schools to what it's like to live above a raucous bar); Sports, covering the intersection of sports and culture; Tech, covering the intersection of tech and culture; Travel, covering everything from flight deals and travel news to hotel hacks and under-the-radar day trips; Politics, where we keep you up to speed on all local, state and national politics that have implications on the Bay Area; Food + Drink, where we tell you the backstory of the people behind the bar and in the kitchen; Cannabis, where we cover the sprawling industry of legal weed in California, good, bad and ugly; and News. Plus, the site has a full-time editor covering Lake Tahoe as well as satellite editors covering California Parks, the Central Coast, Los Angeles, Hawaii, and Disneyland.
What we're looking for:
Keen proofreading eye and strong attention to detail
Excellent English language skills and deep knowledge of grammar and style rules
Professional experience with standard style guides, such as the Associated Press Stylebook
Phenomenal headline writing skills and the ability to take a complex story and distill it down to a handful of words
An affection for language and an understanding of the impact it can have in our community
Ability to communicate and interact professionally with culturally diverse writers, editors and staff
Ability to prioritize and balance multiple projects simultaneously
Ability to manage time effectively and meet deadlines
Previous experience with a content management system
Ability to work legally in the United States
Ability to live in/commute to the San Francisco Bay Area
Who you are:
You have 2 to 3 years of professional copy-editing experience
You have a bachelor's degree in English, journalism, creative writing, comparative literature, communications or related fields from an accredited college or university, or equivalent, with a record that demonstrates suitable preparation for this position
You've read SFGATE and have an understanding of the brand and voice
In accordance with applicable law, Hearst is required to include a reasonable estimate of the compensation for this role if hired in California. The reasonable estimate is between $33,000 and $36,000. Please note this information is specific to those hired in San Francisco. If this role is open to candidates outside of San Francisco, the salary range would be aligned to that specific location.
