.. CNN's global Visuals team is growing, and we're looking for an interdisciplinary journalist who can help us produce essential, creative and groundbreaking journalism. This role requires working 1–2 weekend days as part of a rotating schedule. On weekends, you will often serve as the primary data and graphics editor on duty, making strong communication skills and the ability to take initiative essential. As a member of the global data and graphics team, you will collaborate closely with teammates and news desks across CNN to contextualize the news and tell stories on the most important issues of our time. You'll find, analyze, and visualize data across beats - including breaking news and the intersections of policy, business, climate, health, inequity and more - while also pitching and developing your own stories. This position can be based out of any of CNN's major US bureaus, with hybrid-remote work a possibility. Your Role Accountabilities... • Create graphics and visuals - including maps, charts, interactives and other visual storytelling formats - for breaking news stories and medium- to long-term features. • Serve as the primary weekend data and graphics editor, exercising editorial judgment and coordinating directly with editors and reporters across desks. • Work with senior editors to identify and assign mapping opportunities, from single graphics to larger storylines for both breaking news and enterprise coverage. • Evaluate the performance of our templates, documentation and mapping workflows, raising opportunities to refine or create new ones, and updating our handbook when necessary. • Review data, analyses, stories, visualizations and graphics to ensure they uphold rigorous editorial and design standards. • Collaborate closely with teammates to document your work, open source data when relevant, and participate in knowledge- and skill-sharing across the team. Qualifications & Experience... • At least 3 years of newsroom or comparable data/visualization experience. • Proven experience in data-driven reporting, visualization, and creative storytelling (information graphics, interactives, webGL or similar formats). • Proficiency with mapping and geospatial visualization tools (QGIS, Mapbox, D3.js, ArcGIS or similar platforms). • Familiarity with automated data pipelines using tools such as Github Actions. • Ability to analyze, clean, and interpret datasets-including geospatial data-and translate them into clear, accessible visuals. • Strong communication and collaboration skills, with the ability to work independently and take initiative, especially during fast-paced weekend shifts. • Familiarity with newsroom workflows and comfort publishing under tight deadlines. • A reader-first mindset and strong commitment to accuracy, clarity, and multiplatform storytelling. • Comfort working both independently and collaboratively with cross-functional teams. • Willingness to experiment with novel storytelling techniques and/or how our graphics are designed for homepages and off-platform. • Technical fluency with modern visualization and data tools: Illustrator, ai2html, HTML, CSS, JavaScript (especially D3), R, Python, SQL, Excel, and Git/command line. • Curiosity and openness to experimenting with new storytelling formats (e.g., scrollytelling, 3D visualizations, emerging technologies). If you don't have every one of these skills, that's OK-we want to hear from candidates who are passionate about this work and eager to bring their unique vision and experience to the role.
