The San Francisco Standard is seeking a Fall/Winter 2025 data and innovation intern to work across the newsroom. We are looking for a proactive, inventive thinker with a diverse toolkit who can use data and AI-aided reporting to find unique stories and create beautiful graphics. The successful candidate will develop their own ideas for stories and newsroom tools, as well as work with other reporters and editors to develop computational and visual components of their projects. You should be comfortable gathering and handling data, and have an eye for detail to make sure information is expressed correctly and effectively.

You should be eager to learn on the job, experiment with new tools, and share your findings with staff across the newsroom. 

Preferred qualifications:

  • Comfort with off-the-shelf data visualization tools such as Datawrapper and Flourish.
  • Experience with and openness to using machine learning, including genAI, to analyze data, automate tasks and create tools.
  • A relentless spirit of experimentation and collaboration.

This is an in-office position on the enterprise reporting team in our San Francisco office, with occasional remote work depending on the days/times of your shifts. Start date is flexible, September-October, 2025.

This internship pays $25 per hour, and may be part-time or full-time. 

To apply for this position, please submit your resume along with 4 to 6 work samples, a cover letter and contact information for at least two references.
