Technology Reporter — Business of Tech, AI & Power Locations: Remote, United States Full-time Job Description We're looking for a proven, scoop-hungry Tech Reporter to cover the business of tech with a relentless focus on AI, and the forces — money, power, and politics — that are reshaping the industry and the world it's remaking. Your focus will be on big-game hunting — getting the scoops and stories that will set Semafor apart. You'll be tracking what the largest companies in history are building, how they’re making money, and how the people who run them are accumulating capital and political influence. You’ll uncover how AI is restructuring industries and reordering markets, and how governments in Washington, Brussels, and Beijing are rushing to catch up.
